If you ask me there is just too much going wrong right now. I like riot for the most part, for past reasons. They try and make the game a non-toxic place i love that. they try and make the lore for the champions attractive i love that. Bugs occur and they fix the problem relatively fast and i love that.

           However there's some seriously bad things going on. I am attempting to main riven but there's a new riven in town. his name is aatrox. lower cdr, built in sustain, built in GA, more damage. why is riven a champion???

            Lets talk about mundo. i picked karma top because i thought it would be fun/ maybe work. but the enemy team locked in mundo. oh boy was i in for a surprise.  he rushed spirit visiage, i rushed morello for grievous wounds. we were level 10 and i spent my entire mana bar hitting him with spells. yet he was full hp by time it was all said and done. he just kept attack the tower and there was 100% nothing i could do. of course the the full tank juggernaut killed me within a few seconds once he was done with the tower.

            Lets talk about zoe. you avoid every single one of her spells and you still lose lane. the lich bane passive is just down right that strong. 

            conclusion..... why is this game so one sided? so many match ups you just get annihilated no counter-play available. skill?? what is that?? there is no counter play what so ever in certain match ups. there's so many champions that are literally not playable because riot is endlessly adding new champions and reworking others. changing items, removing items. Break a champion with buffs or rework, make a legendary skin, sell the legendary skin then nurf the monster you created? so many champions getting left in the dust with all the changes so that there's only a few champions in each role that viable due to their ridiculous damage . I want to play champions i enjoy and to be honest if things do not i am forced to leave league of legends... literally forced out of the game because i am not allowed to play something i enjoy playing.

  1. Riven is an AA weaving champ with a lot of animation cancelling. Aatrox is more of a spellweaver. To master Riven you need to get really fast and use your mobility and little hops (and tiamat!). Aatrox requires you to learn his sweetspots, if anything. The two champions are as similar and different as Nautilus and Braum.

  2. Karma sucks vs tanks. In all lanes. She has no %health damage and if you rush morellos you will have a bad time on Karma (no cdr, no mana). Try to push the lane and avoid fighting him, you can't kill him. Spend teamfights kiting his ass. Get Liandry's to be kinda relevant. Or just play a better matchup, lol.

  3. Zoe? Cancer of a champ. Really fun to play, but facing her makes hammering rusty nails into your scrotum sound like a more fun alternative.

  4. Okay, I am not gonna pretend I am on board with all Riot does, but generally they are one of the best gaming company I know, both in care and communication. Also, the game is currently at a really good state and a plethora of champions are viable and playable. Even the worst champions have barely a winrate below 45%, so if you want to main any champion, for you the winrate will most likely still be way above 50%. Just do your thing, bro, really. Even if it's not 100% efficient all the time, hopping into normals or ARAM and playing some AP Lucian is just the fun one needs sometimes.

Also watch some SoloRenektonOnly if you like off-meta stuff. He does them regularly, and it keeps surprising me with how many things - that might not be meta - still work out fine.

No they are not trying to balance the game. It is blatantly obvious.

Karma top against Mundo lmao wtf. If you knew they already had Mundo then you just destroyed your lane.
