Not happy with declining LCS and pro players are being hurt

LCS and Leagues player base is declining since 2015.

  1. new player experience sucks #%@%
  2. Champions are so expensive, takes forever to get 6300IP
  3. Runes are expensive as hell, play ranked? yeah right do you have the right runes?
  4. rune pages cost A LOT, punishes creative/dynamic rune sets unless you p2w
  5. takes forever to reach lvl 30: they removed 400 RP to buy XP boost, so same shit different name

LCS damage:

  1. constant balance changes that Pro's cant keep up
  2. 2-week patch cycles damaging Pro players, they have to keep changing strats and pressure too much
  3. players gave up hope in-game and LCS for this exact reason, so tired of constant balance changes

Think of any pro sport.... You strategy and tactics change from week to week depending on the competition.

I'm sorry, but as much time as the pros put in to playing the game, and as many years of experience as they ought to have, adapting to changes should not be that hard for them. Between theory-crafting and hands-on experience, they shouldn't have problems with a shifting meta. Especially at the LCS-level.
