Can't have diversity. I think Stonewall talked about how everyone will start machete. I think he's right. I personally want to start bottle.

Meh, machete builds into like 5 different items so it'll be ok in the end. It'll be at least be more variety than the "boots into mercs (or mobis)" of s2

Machete is more or less mandatory, there are some that can skip it. Nunu can, but that's because Nunu. He still might get it for faster clearing, though. I think it'll be required on every jungler until people can figure out safer builds/routes that don't need it, but I think unless you're a god mode jungler at level 1 you will.

On the bright side there is at least some diversity in the items that build out of machete. I mean it's petty obvious on who you are going to build which upgrade on, but at least you're not gimped into buying an item that won't help you at all later.

But it shows up on you as now the named aura like "Legion Aura" so I'd assume that you can't have two "Legion Aura"s due to unique naming

Can someone confirm this? The reason double-unique-aura-stacking worked before was to avoid the weird situation where if your ally has a wota and you have a revolver+blasting wand, you'd end up losing AP and spellvamp by upgrading the revolver if the aura didn't double-stack for the holders.

EDIT: and by gunblade i mean revolver

I'd like to know this too.


Double wota still works, had it in a PBE aram today.

Most penetration got nerf because of how much better it is.

Double Aura stacking still works as confirmed. Got two "Valor Aura"!

I think it'll be required on every jungler until people can figure out safer builds/routes that don't need it, but I think unless you're a god mode jungler at level 1 you will.

IMO if you don't lose a significant amount of speed from starting Cloth over Machete, Cloth will always be better, because if 2 junglers meet in the jungle, and one has Cloth, and the other has Machete, the guy with Cloth will out-duel the guy with Machete.

EDIT: nm just checked and apparently Machete affects all damage, not just autoattacks. Boring.

EDIT 2: this does mean that if your team is going to do Baron, and you're coming from base, you should buy a Machete and sell it later. 10% increased damage to Baron + 10 true damage per attack is worth the 90 gold net loss.

In Riot's patch notes, when they change the numeric value of something, they always formulate it "X is increased to {new value} from {old value}". This always confuses the hell out of me because I always assume the old value is going to come first. Does this bother anyone else? Have you gotten used to it?

it makes sense to me, as long as they're consistent about it. They could just say "X is now {new value}", but the old values are given for convenience's sake, kind of like a parenthetical remark afterwards.

Jungle monsters now deal 50% bonus damage to non-champions (ex: Malzahar's Voidlings, Shaco's Jack in the Box)

Jungle malz nerf. Obviously they understand how OP T_D's ideas can be, so they nerf it preemptively. Well played, Riot.

That's been like that since the start of the PBE update. The voidlings reportedly could tank the entire jungle at normal damage. You just have to take turns tanking.

No, it was nerfed with all other penetration sources to balance out the new penetration stacking rules. It makes sense.

It still works, and is surprisingly one of the easier junglers if you're familiar with his mechanics.

RIP Soul Shroud. You will be missed as the most underbought aura item in the game.
