It's really WRONG how riot is letting morgana flex on support, mid, jungle (and incentivating it!) and sometimes adc, while when Pyke began being played mid or jungle, ot was nerfed to the ground and made completaly unusable. Same with sylas, aatrox and the new Gwen, who can't even jungle anymore. Is there any reason for riot to be so darn inconsistent, lettong some champions flex 4 roles while limiting others to 1-2?
External link →Morgana is popular and isn't a pro play flex. The point of these changes is to give newer players more familiar picks they can use in the jungle role. Since her jungling will never be popular in pro it's not really a balance problem the way pyke is
I think it should've been zyra jg though, for thematic reasons
Pretty spot on take, When talking about popularity and new players in the jungle role, I couldn’t have said it better myself. I don’t think she will never be a pro flex but she is much less so, I think frustration and intuitiveness factor in here as well. Pyke mid doesn’t actually play the game like a mid laner normally does, he mostly ignores farm and roams, and when he doesn’t ignore farm he tends to just shrug off poke and never really engage in trading. Such an unintuitive play pattern tends to lead to much higher frustration levels. Pyke mid was also a bonkers winrate despite all its nerfs for a long, long time. These morgana changes arent nearly a drastic swing in winrate, and like mentioned before she hasn’t shown up in pro much so the concern there is minor, but likely will be monitored.
