Okay that makes more sense, in which case I agree with you, frail junglers have tended to dissapear lately..

Even the Wriggles junglers still build GP10's because otherwise, they wont have the gold or items to compete later on in the game =/

Honestly, building GP10 items is getting boring. Build them on pretty much everything except ADC. Would be nice if they would get the gold streams sorted out such that they could just remove them from the game altogether.

I used to love playing udyr jungle, and would have amazing killing power. But with the jungle nerf awhile back there is less gold in the jungle.

There is more gold in creep waves than an entire jungle route. Doesn't seem fair imo.

It really sucks when a good portion of my hard work counterjungling as shyvana is made up for by stacking gp10's. Especially when you are trying to shut down high risk/snowbally junglers like Ali

Glĝry described my train of thought quite well. In the simplest of terms, I'm basically saying that the only way to be successful now in the jungle is to pick a champion that's tanky, has good base stats, has AoE clearing capabilities, and can purchase both Philosopher's Stone and Heart of Gold without being completely useless. This in turn lowers the champion pool to pick from and in turn makes the role boring overall.

Gp10 is stagnating more than just the jungle. It's a terrible mechanic that should have disappeared a long time ago.

Also, part of the reason jungler income is low is that ganks are pretty worthless for junglers due to flash and towers being way too strong. "Blowing their flash is a successful gank" should have been mocked the first time it was said.

Riot needs to grow a spine and get rid of the terrible mechanics they've added to the game rather than continue to try to work around them. The game will be massively flawed until they do that.
