PreSeason Changes

So this PreSeason is throwing a lot of new things at us and a lot of them are broken. A lot of people are calling for a revert of these changes back to the balance of S5. But you know what people thought the same thing PreSeason S5 and look how it turned out.

Every PreSeason Riot does the same thing, they throw out all these crazy broken changes. They balance things for a month or so and we end up with a fresh version of the game that is interesting to play again and is balanced.

I don't think the direction they are going (especially with the overall game pacing and upcoming winion rework) is going to lead to fresh and balaned gameplay. I think it will decrease the overall game time to around 30 minutes (or less), therefore eliminating most late game champs as viable.

I honestly don't think so.

However, what it WILL do is have everyone get full build ever so slightly faster, meaning skill and build choices will play a larger role in how well you do vs now, which is essentially "He with the most AD/AP and penetration wins."

Personally I think people are too worried about the "winion" rework, but we'll see when it comes out.

As for the short game times, that is because of how unbalanced everything is right now. Once numbers/passives are balanced and brought back into line I think late game champs will be viable again.
