I Miss 5v5 Chess
A college friend got me into this game in 2015, I'd always dismissed MOBAs as "too much fantasy" despite reading fantasy and playing Elder Scrolls. I really got into it when I figured out it was a 5v5 live chess match. But the game doesn't feel like that any more. I'd been thinking about it for a while, but stuck with it because I enjoy this game. Then 8.10 came out and jungling didn't feel as fun as it used to, because it felt like only one (really one and a half) styles were viable. But I switched to mid/bot and kept playing. Then 8.11 came out and I've not played a single normal game. I don't have the heart ("oh you can't say it sucks if you've not tried it", maybe not, but I don't really care to, it was bad enough before). I've played a bunch of ARAMs. Those are still fun with a group of friends. But thinking about it today I downloaded an old PvP game I used to play, and maybe I won't like it for the same reason I left it. Maybe I'll find another game to try. I've not left this game, but today I started downloading other options to get my competitive gaming fix. I miss 5v5 chess and I hope Riot brings it back. I grew to really love this game.
