also - the vision granted by the scuttler buff has been majorly nerfed - not sure the actual vision change (eg can u sneak into drag pit). Prob not, but worth checking out in a custom.

"Amendments: forgot to list Nunu and Zac. Imo they're both somewhere in the great/good range"

Foxdrop on his casual list of OP/Great/Good jungler tier list.

So I learned something that I can might be useful.  Any of you that play zac know he has a range indicator in a large cone shape for his long range jump.  Well, I stumbled upon this yesterday - it seems as if you can aim outside of the ranges of that cone and travel either left or right at nearly 90 degree angles.  This means you can have a higher level of control of where you hop.  Not sure if its reproducible (I did this a few times yesterday and it just dawned on me how the mechanic was working).  Anyway, I'll prob try this out today to confirm.  It just gives you a bit more flexibility.

Oh and the new xerath skin on pbe looks pretty good.  morgana got some visual effect updates that look pretty good.  Luden's echo was tweaked to make it much more visibile when it has proc'd.  and it looks like they are toying with some tank jungle specific nerfs... ><

lol nerfing tank junglers before we even know if they are good? Thanks riot.

well - they are toying w/ it on pbe.  lower hp on item - also toying w/ machette nerfs.  The hp nerf will prob happen. 

Well, Cinderhulk really is just better than the other jungle items right now.  I mean, you build it over the other items on anybody who can plausibly use it.

So, the smart thing to do would be reasonable Cinderhulk nerf and then small buffs to non Sejuani tier tank junglers.

But the problem is that tank junglers are really hard to balance because they are typically fairly strong in low ELO but weak in higher ELO.  I mean, Amumu would probably need a compensation buff in high ELO, but is super OP in low ELO because they don't know how to handle him there.  So it is really tricky.

So Riot will probably make a mess of it given how they usually handle jungle.  Double nerfs where you nerf a jungler and their favorite item like we see on Sejuani are how champions get essentially deleted from the game (see Warwick).

Sejauni is the only one that has seen any sort of reasonable play so saying all tank junglers are good is sort of rediculous. They should really leave it alone for a few patches after sejauni gets brought back down to earth. Id rather have 3-4 tanks become high tier then going back to the same old 4 junglers that are viable (vi, j4, lee, reksai) and currently we don't even know if there are any tank junglers (other than sejauni who IMO is just on par with them) that can compete with those 4.

Rek'Sai is the only one beating 50% out of those, most of the tank junglers are.  Sejuani isn't even the highest win rate jungler right now, Sion is.  I'd say the tanks are just fine with a minor nerf to an op item.

Sion isn't even a jungler.
