Riot : We remove Dominion cause not enough played, we can't simply make a ranked mode for Dominion or remove 3c3 since 3c3 is useless and is like playing 5c5.

Then : Look at our new gamemode ! TFT ! It's incredibly revolutionary, so skilled, so magical, you will love it ! Pure skill, pure fun !

98% based on luck and 1% skill, 1% fun. And guess what ? We make this ranked !! Even tought it's all based on luck, we make this ranked.

At this point, why not make Aram ranked or AURF ranked too ? I mean, ranked dominion or ranked aram would probably be more fair than playing a single game of TFT.

You delete dominion but not 3c3... Instead of keeping 5c5, Dominion and Aram which could have been a good idea, you prefer keep 3c3 and add TFT...

What is wrong with you ? Do you even think about what you are doing ? You make things that don't make sense.

Like buffing Lee sin and Kha'zix when they are fine... Why not buff Jarvan 4 who is at 52,75% win rate or Hecarim at 52,17% then or wait, Nunu who is at 54,40% win rate ? If you buff things that don't even need buff, the game can only go into a downhill.

Kha'zix and Lee sin don't need buff, it's J4, Nunu and Hecarim who needs nerfs in this case. But your tought is "Buff Lee sin and Kha'zix" so they can be like J4, Nunu and Hecarim and put them S tier.

That why the game is becoming stupid. When you balance things, you give power to champs that don't need power instead of simply nerfing the dmg of the most powerful champs.

Lee sin and Kha'zix win rate can increase if you nerf Nunu, J4 and Hecarim. Lee sin and Kha'zix have already good dmg, they don't need to have more dmg. They just need that the most powerful junglers get little nerfs and they will shine too.

It's also a part of why the game has so much dmg with new runes, turrets plates and jungle buffs (especially infernal drakes)... You buff, you buff and when all the champs are buffed, you get so much dmg in the game because everyone is buffed.

Worlds may be important but we also matter. We spend money in your game, we are the reason you can live from your own game. We would like a little bit of consideration.

I don't mind you want to get famous and make E-sport a thing, after all it's can be a good idea.

But don't ignore us too, we are part of your game. We aren't making criticizes to insult you or anything, we want you to listen to what we say. We want to hear your answers. We want a real communication beetween your staff and your community.

We know we can't make things like 100 percent positive but after all, we are here to discuss and find way to improve your game.

It's can be hard to receive criticizes or complains but you should take it as a way to improve things.

When people complain about Pyke and you have +100 likes threads, maybe you can assume that something is wrong with Pyke.

When people complain about dmg and you have a lot of approval and likes, maybe you can assume that some dmg needs to be nerfed.

When people complain about TFT based only on luck, maybe you can try to reduce the RNG and don't make it a ranked mode until it's fixed.

Instead of this, you close some boards. For example the French board is closed since 4 months and replaced by a discord which is probably one of the worst idea you have done. Instead of improving the communication, you closed it.

I'm afraid that the NA board is going to close too in some years...

You make changes where changes aren't needed. You don't make changes where it's needed.

You still have time to admit your mistakes and repair it. Games who tried to became trends never succeded long enough because a trend is a trend and when the fashion is gone, the game is gone too. Be trendy doesn't mean remove all the good things you game have.

Dominion was good, you took it. Some champs are fine, you buff them and make them OP. Some aren't, they don't have any attention or love. Runes and mastery wasn't a problem, you took them, you replaced them by something unbalanced and problematic. Turrets were fine with shields and lasers and you nerfed them to the point of helping enemy team to get gold. Items wasn't a big problem, then you added lethality...

You keep making overloaded kits like Irelia or Akali while simplicity would help you to balance things. You want champs to impress by dashing in all senses, to burst and delete someone easily... You only care about E-sport now. Plays must be "incredible" "wow"...

We are warning you riot. Trends are dangerous, they don't live long enough. Once your game will be old and not trendy anymore, all these players will leave you while your true players will stay. But the only thing is that you can lose your true players before and it's can be quite problematic. In this case, when these players will leave you because you are not "trendy" anymore, you will be left with nothing.

Dominion was removed years ago. At the start of s6, I believe. It's currently near the end of s9.

Riot didn't remove Dominion for TFT lmao. They hadn't even THOUGHT of TFT then.

Dominion was axed because it had an even lower playrate than TT does right now, and we all know how abysmal TT's playrate is.

Yes, Dominion was removed years ago and they didnt tought about TFT.

But now, everything is different. Dominion was better than this TFT and you realise it's the thing that took the place of Dominion. It's gonna be permanent as Dominion was. So in my heart, it's like they replaced Dominion with TFT.

?

There's a reason that TFT has only a tiny fraction of the queue time that Dominion did. Because there's a fuckton more people who play it.

You might find dominion better, but you're in an absolutely fucking tiny group that has a lower population than Dallas.
