I can't do this anymore.
This season is just garbage. I have yet to play a single game in the last two months that I haven't felt I won or lost by just pure cheese. The minion pushing makes no sense (like seriously, is that shit randomized? I feel like one game I get a huge lead but the opponent gets their minions to a 20% bonus, even though I BEAT THEM). Every single mistake is punished so unbelievably severely it's ridiculous. One bad teammate doesn't throw a single game, they throw every single one you play. I don't feel fulfilled, I feel like doing chores and babysitting.
I'm finally calling it quits for good, at least for this season. Not even the gems are going to bring me back. Until Riot gets their shit together, I'm staying gone and playing a MOBA that isn't complete shit balance wise. Not even Season 4 was this bad, and that's when Fizz had Grievous Wounds, and LeBlanc had a silence. It pales in comparison to the split push cheese that is going on right now. This game just isn't fun anymore. And even with the death timer changes, it still feels like complete shit. So adios League. When you get your shit together, I may come back, but this season may have just soured me for good.
