League is evolving into garbage

Zoe... takes half of your lifebar and then uses the most important summoners spell twice to get away. Pyke... "support" that has more parts in his kit than a swiss army knife. Oh, and a resetting ultimate. Bland champions that don't really add much to the game Sylas, the gecko girl Runes reforged... damage damage damage Mobility creep Bad matchmaking Unnecessary reworks CDR everywhere. Duskblade totally unnecessary Dynamic queue was a miserable failure seriously Rioters just spent the past few years turning League into a total parody of itself.

It is Garbage, we are trying to convince riot to bring it out of the trashcan. They refuse at every patch.

It is not evolving, this is already the end-result of terrible management during several years. League started evolving after the juggernaut patch midseason 5 into the cancer it is today.

Yep

Riot gave me a Survey after a match that was all about direction of the game and my feelings about it.

I let into them about how much shit the game has become.

Reading "evolving into garbage"

--> instantly getting Digimon World flashbacks

but to be honest, I don´t like riot´s obsession with making the game as fast-paced as possible either.

FUN FACT THERE WAS MORE FUCKING DAMAGE IN THE LAST SYSTEM VS RUNE REFORGED!! there are reasons to hate it why being up something clearly wrong.

Mobility creep is fucking just bs since your mad you can't kit a skill shot.

Pyke is fine he has less in his kit then thresh or sona wtf is your problem?

Zoe is a burst mage so yeah her doing a lot of damage is fine it's the same as an other burst mage. There basically just assassins with more range and utility.

Name me one unnecessary rework? Since you probably can't or you have a really stupid reason.

This is what happened to Starcraft 2

Take a fun and already fast paced realtime strategy game and turn it into a silly who can kill all resource workers with cheese first game.

The koreans loved it. The rest of the world not so much. Blizzard is so big though they can do crap like that and stay sustained due to their other IPs.

Maybe Riot is simply catering to the audience it wants

I completely agree with how bad matchmaking is right now. Something is definitely broken since they reverted positional matchmaking. But Iron players vs Platinum and gold is maybe another thing Riot somehow wants to make happen.

For fun you know [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Don't forget the AP items rework that was supposed to encourage variety, but did literally the exact opposite.

Only at Riot could you possibly achieve the exact opposite effect.

I really do miss old league. I know they have prettied it up and added a bunch of shit.... but at the end of the day League is league. The gameplay is really all that matters. And the gameplay is such total garbage to what it used to be. Harder and harder to waste time playing this game these days. I just miss old league so much man. The shit I was addicted to and played all day. I still pretend some days League the same and spams game but I pretty much want to just cry and not touch the game after like 2-3. Pretty much can really only play more than like 2 games if I am playing with a friend. Every match just feels so fucking bad.

I literally can't fucking tell a bronze player from like mid gold anymore. Everyone just deletes everyone..... baron op turrest weak as fuck... . Stupid ass overloaded kit champs everywhere..... insane mobility..... damage damage damage... everything you said its just all made this game so trash.

Vicious circle. Assassin complains, they get buffs -> people leave lol -> oh no, fix tanks, because people leave -> more people leave game -> oh no, adcs leaving the game, fix them -> more people leave game -> ...

Matchmaking is terrible because it was designed with a lot of players with lots of games in mind. Now since there are less games, matchmaking simply cannot predict your actual level, because it cannot predict the level of the other 9 players, and makes random adjustments after games.

I think they want to make league as a show rather than a game.

Can they stop adding champs that take your stuff please? For years, the only thing enemy champs took was baron, dragons, or your life... then they started taking your summoner spells, now they take your ultimates?

I'm still trying to figure out this one. Riot took nidalee's most annoying aspect from her, murdered her ability to lane, and then they put it on a completely different champ. So not only is the lesson not learned, the annoying damage isn't even on the champ it belongs on.

The game is a mess and the meta is completely devolving. People are now trolling like crazy, the insta-delete meta coupled with hypermobilty has now everyone cowering behind towers and refusing to play. 1 or 2 kills can send any hypercarry into unstoppable mode making 90% of the game completely unplayable. Win or lose now its just me watching someone else either win it for me, or lose it for me, but unless I want to play a hyper carry I can literally go afk and it'd have no noticable affect on the game outcome after the 1st few engagements.

tbh rito should just rework duskblade to give all of your abilities do 20 - 70 (based on level) extra damage for the first 3 seconds in combat, it encourages lets say zed, or rengar, or some other shit like kha to use and hit all their abilities instead of just no counterplay auto attack one shot. Thats my idea, it sounds way more productive in terms of counterplay and rewarding skilled players unlike the current one.

Morgana Deus4/29/2019, 7:46:56 PM2 votes

Yeah thank god they reworked Morgana. I enjoy not being able to ever play my one trick. 10 years of being a Morgana OTP and the game is basically impossible to play. Thank god they came and saved us Morgana players.
