Feral Flare forces you to spend more time in the jungle and your strongest phase is in early game where you have extremely strong entries to gank due to the lack of pink wards in any given match.

Later on though once it's complete you have an actually decent later game dueling potential and with Shiv it's good damage on non-tank targets.

Elder Lizard is quicker to build and you can go to lane and gank people and counter jungle really aggressively.

It all depends on how the lane is doing and if you are facing the sort of jungler who won't be ganking lane early either.
