In the 2023 Pre-Season period, one of the new elements Riot added to League of Legends is the Jungle Beast system. These Summoned Beasts will give the player special abilities and they will replace the old Jungler gear (including the Lava Dagger and the Frost Dagger).

When released, Jungle Beasts gave players a taste of the convenience of a new type of Jungle tool. At that time, these summoned beasts showed their strength when they could help every general become a jungle champion. There was even a short clip of Yuumi using the Jungle Beast to eat the Dragon charm alone. Many opinions also believe that when entering the official season, the Jungle Beast will be even stronger.

However, recently, according to some gamers, Jungle Beasts, when applied to real matches, are not really effective. Specifically, a gamer thinks that these Summoned Beasts only have the effect of following, adding a little effect to the already strong skills of the champion (thanks to the available stats and equipment). Not to mention, the summoned beasts also contribute to “indicating” the opponent whenever the champion is chased.
This player’s opinion received much agreement from the League of Legends community. Some people even think that the Spirit Beasts only work… for beauty and to “buff up the spirit” for the owner. Because, they have not really met the requirement to completely replace the old jungle equipment before.

Perhaps in the near future, Riot will need to have specific effects on Jungle Beasts. Because, they have not really met the requirements of both publishers and gamers. If there are no corrections soon, the summoned beasts will again become another mistake in the development of Riot’s League of Legends.
