Impact on Carry Junglers
Tarzaned highlights the challenges faced by carry junglers, who are often behind in levels and gold compared to laners. The changes in Patch 14.1 further exacerbate this disadvantage by making ganking harder. With slower clear times and decreased gank reliability, carry junglers like Graves and Karthus are likely to suffer even more. Tarzaned raises concerns about the impact of these changes and how it will affect the overall balance of the game.
Terrain Changes in Patch 14.1
The video emphasizes the impact of terrain changes in Patch 14.1 on ganking. Tarzaned explains how moving brushes and walls have made it more challenging for junglers to successfully gank lanes. This aspect of the update is crucial in understanding the need for the retuning of jungle damage. The changes aim to address the difficulties faced by junglers in navigating the updated terrain and provide a more balanced gameplay experience.
Adjustments to Damage Contributions
Tarzaned dives into the specific adjustments being made to damage contributions and DPS for pet champions like Graves and Karthus. The goal is to lower the percent DPS contribution that pets give to their champion while increasing the flat DPS of the pets themselves. This change aims to create a metagame where junglers focus more on farming camps rather than relying heavily on ganking. However, Tarzaned expresses concern that these adjustments will disproportionately impact carry junglers, further diminishing their presence and effectiveness in the game.
