I left smite for a bit so I was surprised to see that the outside jungle had been removed upon my return. Maybe people already discussed the reasons it was taken out last month, but I am curious as to why they did it. The jungle, and map in general, feels smaller now because of it.

they liked it more this way i guess, less buffs... No real purpose i think. It's an improvement in my opinion

They removed the side buff because 1)Hi Rez was feeling that way too many battles where taking part in there.
2)In an effort to diminish the snowballing effect that was going on e.g. If you score 1-2 early kills you could then push your lane past middle of your lane go take red+ one more buff get 2 levels over your lane score another kill or push back lane repeat the process and you would soon be out leveling your mid laner.
3)Hi Rez wanted to to make the map smaller to make more action packed.

Wait, does this reduce the effectiveness of jungling? With less buffs is a jungeler just going to get under leveled or did they move the buffs?

Well, even back with old map you shouldnt have really been staying in jungle, since they are intended more for pushing your lane up, then quickly grabbing buffs for an advanatage. Junglers that stay in jungle will find themselves outlevelled by laners in no time.
Rep me up if I helped!

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
