I'm not trying to put words in peoples mouths, but this is the situation as I see it.
Every single patch changes the game.
Your team can have a good strategy for the entire season. Then go to worlds and find out you are playing on a patch that more or less ruins the strategy that got you there.
I can't think of any other "sport" that changes the rules of the game mid season. Especially, to change the rules in between play offs and regular season.

E-sports != athletic sports which yes, have rules change mid season. Patches are part of every evolving game. I am not even sure what the point of this post is lol.

So what, I just trust that everything you say is 100% true?
I will gladly explain the point of this post though.
I am interested in the view and opinions of E-sport players that have to EXPERIENCE going through different patches throughout a single season and even play offs. In my little brain, patch changes mid season are equivalent to the NBA saying "no 3 pointers" just before play offs. League of Legends is the only sport my little brain could think of where players have to deal with a constantly changing set of rules. Some people may thrive, some people may hate it. The point is to hear them.
