Man i fucking hate this playstyle, i'm getting sick of it. Everybody uses these champions that are poke based and only require one skill to proc thunderlords, or they use some dot champion that makes DFT do retarded amounts of damage, Fervor for autoattack champions that just sit back and fuck you while you can't match their damage output, they increased death timer, weak-ass turrets, keystone masteries, buffing champions that need reworks or nerfs, and nerfing the ones that need buffs or reworks.. responding with "oh it's for the good if you stay in the long run" well guess what, 3 years of playing this and this game is finally turned to total shit.

Tanks are the only thing that are good for this game.

The game design just implodes on itself because it's playstyle is called "being a passive aggressive fucktard" Dont believe me? Just look up the definition of "passive aggressive" then look up videos of pro players. Thought so.

I know this thread gets a lot of downvotes but i honestly don't give a damn, league of pokes is what I'm calling this game from now on, sure it's fun to "have all these interactive masteries and skills for defeating your opponent" but you should know it's just as unfun to be kited or facerolled into and being able to do nothing about it just because they have one kill and you don't.

Sometimes casters, streamers or people in general claim deaths or kills because of "outplays" or "counters" all i'm going to call it is broken ass shit that synergizes well with your current keystone mastery.

"but wait, you can do this too" Yes, I'm aware, but it is getting so OLD!!

oooh Don't even get me started on summoner 4... hooooly fucking shit. You either use this or you don't use it because you're one of the rare cases of a niche champion that functions better without it.. nobody sees it as broken, yet if you use cleanse and ghost everybody will look at you weird.. Seriously, complain more about Yasuo, Lee Sin, Mundo, Jax, Poppy, Shen and all that but remember that Flash is used at least quadruple times more than your most hated freelo champion.

League of pokes ? Thought it was League of Tanks. Someone even mentioned it was League of Marksmen. Could you guys make up your minds please.

This game reminds me of starcraft 2's fatality.

Watering down mechanics. (VISION? TOWERS? POWER SPIKES? ITEM BUILDS? MASTERIES?)

Complication for the sake of complication (This entire season has been Riot's teenage years adding stupid shit because it looks cool and is different)

Taking out what players liked in the first place. (Reworks that erase the entire identity of the champion, the playstyle, and none of the player base is taken into account, only Riot the Idea Fairy!)

Pushing too far for the game to be hardcore. (Every ability has 3-4 tertiary effects on it with random interactions with all the other special cupcake champions)

On top of trying to make all the bronze players feel like challenger gods in removing important mechanics, they also lower the skill cap for pro players. (As soon as faker gets a champion he can go off on, he goes 13 and 0. But playing all the op champs now, he can't, because he knows every timing, every spot to ward, watches map perfectly, makes almost no mechanical mistakes, builds are perfect, but either it doesn't matter entirely whether he does half that, or everyone else does the exact same because its so cookie-cutter same-same that it doesn't matter either.)

This is not league of legends, this is Old Riot moving out because its time to go to college and get their own place and make another game, while young Riot trashes the house and has a party because thats what they think adults do.

This is not league of legends, this is old riot developers going to make their own game while they hire new talent who don't really understand developing a game with this many players and this much content (already overflowing before they started) and attempt to balance a game thats more complicated than the entire global fucking economy. Also they think their ideas are perfect and barely ever go back on those ideas, because Idea Fairy designers who have less than a year experience have a reputation for being blown away how smart they are.
