I played the new changes on the PBE... the jungle is pretty broken right now in many ways. It has to change by the time it hits even pre-season. There's really not much to say of the jungle changes specifically, they're such a jumbled mess that they are worse than what we have right now. You can smite champions for example, your smite does about 100 true damage and has a 50% slow for 2 seconds, that sounds like ganking could be even better but then to acquire this special smite you need to kill 3 camps, and every camp really kicks your ass right now and you have 0 sustain in the jungle with the new items so ganking is on the whole harder.
And then each and every camp gives a special bonus if you smite it kinda like Nunu, but they're either broken or just a collection of short-timed buffs that acculumate on your status bar. Speaking of things that accumulate, dragon now gives permanent buffs instead of gold, can't say I like it too much. The first buff gives 5 hp/mp regen to your whole team, yeah. The second gives 8 AD/AP but it's really questionable. Probably the coolest change is how when you take baron, if you sit next to your minions they get significantly stronger, the cannon minions become these long range laser attackers that destroy turrets out of their range. It means that every team no matter how bad can now siege, meh. That's one of the goals of S5, every team comp no matter how bad can siege/split push if they do the proper things, I can't say I agree, it will probably just force more teamfight comps.
