Riot admits that League of Legends' new jungle timers make the game too easy

League of Legends has a long old history with third-party applications. I remember the days of Curse Voice, before Riot eventually went on to develop League’s in-client voice chat system. As time’s gone on, these external services became more sophisticated, feeding you all the information you could ever need to dominate the Rift. The long-running point of contention here has been the advantage players get for using the likes of Porofessor and Blitz over those who don’t, creating an environment where it was almost a necessity to download a tool to ensure parity. With the latest LoL patch, 25.17, Riot sought to level the playing field by introducing native jungle timers. However, its own iteration of the feature appears to have overshot the mark.
