Nothing matters. Games are won in 20 minutes. "Fights" are now explosions where I can't even tell what happened. If I wanted to play HotS I wouldn't have uninstalled that piece of shit game. This was a good game and this one patch just broke the game completely. One double kill at 7 minutes can net an inhibitor now, especially with cancer Graves jungle and Yasuo mid.

Scaling champs like Vlad are completely out of the question unusable. The masteries are awful for anything that isn't an AD glass cannon.

Really my biggest beef with this meta is the dueling/teamfighting. It's just explosions explosions explosions. Tons of damage and you can't use a tank other than because they're weak before getting items.

The main problem is that towers give way too much global gold, shutdowns are now global (meaning that if you are solo carrying a losing team, you being shut down doesn't only benefit the guy who shut you down, it benefits the entire enemy team while the winning team doesn't care if they get shut down since usually they can get objectives for it), towers are paper and can be dived by Teemos at level 4, towers fall far too easily, jungle is too hard and masteries suck hard except for a few abuse cases which are absolutely insane.

The new PD makes it so that the 1 weakness of every non-Vayne non-Lucian ADC, dueling, is gone. Graves has insane numbers while Cait is more of a bully than Draven while being 100x safer and having 100x better late game (not that it matters). Kog went from having a relatively linear and upward power curve to having an extremely weak early and mid game. Late game rarely matters anymore, Every AD caster got rekt by new itemization. Jungle is way too hard and forces everyone to go full tank or die.

Other than that, the preseason changes are good.
