This game isn't enjoyable anymore. And the reason is too much damage.

No matter how well you play your lane, the enemy can oneshot anything as well as soon as he completes his first item.

League feels like a coinflip fiesta for one and a half years now and I am finally starting to feel like it is a waste of time to queue up.

Also, its not enjoyable when your lane gets fucked constantly in the ass with no balance changes because no one else cares (Top).

League boards: The game is too one sided stompy, if you get a tiny lead its insurmountable

Also league boards: Anyone can always one shot anyone, making leads pointless

For me it's getting people to rotate on objectives instead of suicide for kills. Not long ago something was going very wrong if your team had multiple deaths before five minutes. Now that's every game.

Seriously though, the worst feeling in the game is when you can't get your team to pay attention to drags (especially with low vision and auto filled supports not helping to ward it), and then your whole team auto loses from the combined dragon strength on the enemy team. People really don't understand how much an early ocean or wind dragon can swing a game for you.

Makes every game feel like a constant tiring struggle. Instead of getting to that one point where you're strong the game has become a matter of making sure everything doesn't fall apart on multiple fronts. Whether that be dealing with enemies who can go invisible/clone themselves/triple dash or w/e, to herald, to first blood towers, to dragons, to scuttle crabs, to getting them to group and rotate on things together.

Another thing I don't feel is well appreciated is how much "mental tax" all these new champions have. If the enemy team has a Neeko, a Shaco, an Ekko mid etc, you are keeping track of where Ekkos ultimate is and if he can heal, which one is the real Neeko, the real Shaco, Shaco's clone, the boxes he's already putting down, their myriad of skill shots etc. I'm only listing three champions here. There's just a lot to keep track of.

Oh well. End rant. I really don't expect them to do anything about it honestly.

Well this is what happens when Tencent has the controls.

The game is Chinese along with its cheap Chinese qualities.

It has been going for so long that people started to forget it. Maybe something is slightly better, but they still did (and do) such a miserable job for one of the biggest games in the world :/

Yeah. I mean we've known this for a while.

And I refuse to believe Riot doesn't know this either, there's been too many people bringing up this exact issue for them to not know.

Kinda suprised you didn't bring up the mandatory conq drain tanks that ruin literally every single game in this meta right now.

I mean they all one shot so ur point still stands but I find these guys to be a much bigger problem now that Conq has been changed.

The reason isn't all damage. It's the fact that riot has to caiter to one class of champion each season. Having to ask myself. Is this going to be tank season? or Is this going to be assassin/burst season? or Is this going to be juggernaut season?. It's very frustrating to have that happen.

Damage has been toned down this season to a balanced state

This is from 2012, also based around a single item. League has always been this way.
