League of Trash update. Riot ruined their game with yet another shitty unneeded update.

HidenValleyRanchNov 9, 20176 votes

Agreed, The update was unnecessary. The old system was a well rounded system.

"don't fix it if it isn't broken"

Well, this new system is broken and needs to be fixed cough go back to the old runes and masteries

They already did it when they remove my old Poppy, could play my girl 24/7 without getting bored at all. My runes always included 15% crit chance lvl1, then just ham with odds and a final build of 80% crit, since Poppy was remove, I settled to crit-Shyvanna, Now my playstyle (didn't rito said this new cr*ap was about styles? the rune and masteries system already covered what playstyle you were most comfortable with...

I have always liked the changes riot has made up until this point. It has really simplified the game a little too much and has also caused noticeable inequities with some characters. Would love to just see this system go away or at the very least a thorough tuning patch in the near future. Also, this patch was a very arbitrary change that was simply unnecessary, i get it, you want to always try to make the game better but sometimes you can go too far, I do not think the old system was deterring anyone from playing. Just because this system is "new" and "revamped" does not mean it is better.

Good points were made here

Riot KNOWS and PLANS to go through MULTIPLE tuning patches. They expected this and planned not to work on other gameplay projects for a few patches untill preseason is smoothed out. It's a HUGE change and it's absurd to expect it to be perfect on the first go. Before it's brought up, PBE isn't at all good for balance or tuning, due to the heavy skill/ping mismatch that exists with players there.

It is not rocket surgery man. There is no amount of fixing that can change this new imbalance. This whole thing is a contradiction. Lets make the game better by making it more simple? how is that ever going to work when what makes your game worth while is that it takes time to be good and the complexity is precisely what makes your game good in the first place? All of the choices in the game before are what made balancing possible because any mistakes in balance could be fixed in runes/masteries. Now with the new system being a super simplified version of the old system we get this messed up game that dosnt even feel the same. The lacking complexity now accentuates the gap between what is good and what is trash can leaving nothing in the middle. You simply can not change a system with 110+ champions that are all basically balanced more or less and expect it to remain that way. This new system literally ruined the game and it is very obvious to see how. Anyone who disagrees simply didn't have the time to overcome the curve or is a cry baby who plays zelda with a walkthrough.

hate the new runes.. it's like riot took this massive dump on the older players and now are favoring the new players....the older players of league remember how much ip was needed for a good rune page.. full of tier 3s and etc..and how many games were played to get said ip? a metric shittonne that's how much..and now they're just ever so simply offering the runes up on a silver platter?? apart from that they completely ruined the runes that they decided to keep, like for example warlord's bloodlust.. the health you get now has been drastically reduced to the point where even a potion would give you more hp

before the rune system was this simple ladder : the more you play > the more ip you have.. the more ip you have > the more/better runes you can buy..the more/better runes you can buy the easier it is to find your style...whether it's a burst mage or a tanky mage..whether it's a full lethality fighter or a more straight dmg based fighter

now the rune system is terrible.. too stupid to actually connect to a certain champion unless you're a vayne main..cause at least the majority of the new runes are 3 attack based ones

and also let's not forget how well at least 50 champions (most likely more than that) have been rendered useless or just annoying weak the ONLY thing i actually agree with this update..is the leveling thing..that's the only good thing that came out of this update

Why is a Zilean carrying a bad thing...?

HidenValleyRanchNov 9, 20173 votes

So far the pole looks good, it's following the thought I made earlier; some people have benefited and others its ruined the game play for them.

With the current votes roughly 40% of players do not like the new system and agreed it should return to the old system.

Clearly people like the new runes, you are just the type of people who reject new things because you hate change and look for a negative to point out its flaws. When in truth the new runes are way better then old runes in everyway. Even your poll is in favor of new runes lol

HidenValleyRanchNov 9, 20174 votes

No, I'm more than open to change and welcome it. IF ITS DONE RIGHT

Yes, there are people that like the new runes because it's benefited their main's and made them senselessly OP

There are other people who its made them useless.

The whole thing is terrible

The new runes are crap I quit league because of it , tards it only made certain champions not balanced and they needed the runes to apply to certain champions the runes suck so bad!

As the votes keep coming in it still sticks to 40 percent of players wanting the old system back...

Wheres riot?

DarkRitualNov 10, 20173 votes

Ignoring the poll with a mere ~50 votes, whereas they can survey tens of thousand of users and get a significantly more accurate reading.

The boards are not a good indicator of the playerbase as a whole. Reddit is better, but again not a good indicator in itself.

It's called negative bias. People are quick to complain, but a mere fraction of the people who like the system will feel the need to come out in support of it.

DarkRitualNov 10, 20171 votes

I've seen many people on Reddit who like the new runes. Many more than I've seen complaining actually.

i dislike the new runes just because i used to go full flat ap akali. Now every time i q auto a minion, it does much lesser dmg and i lose a lot of cs.

Riot decided to escape gamer of lol to many of my friends gon of lol for this new update (runes & masteries)

LustrousEquinoxDec 4, 20171 votes

I'm going to level with everyone here, including @Riot. The new Rune System is a complete disaster. This needs to be reverted back to it's original state immediately.

PrínceVegetáJan 10, 20181 votes

I like change as well, brings a new fresh look to stop something becoming boring, some champions have become useless (not all) but some that relied on the older system to be viable, the new "DuNdErLoRdS ShMuKr33" (Electrocute) while does more damage, is a lot more difficult to proc as it isn't based on hitting 3 aa or abilities in a row, to proc it it has to be 3 different separate abilities.

E.g. Ekko Ekko is hurt on this as his Q on return does NOT count as a separate ability and won't proc, even when he gets 3 stacks, champions like Fizz Fizz can be an example where it works well, a simple Q,W,E will proc the Electrocute making it more practical for some champions who rely on 3 hit combos, while champions like Vel'Koz Velkoz , you would think this would work well with his passive, but isn't as useful as going down a mage rout for sustain or CDR.

Maybe don't get rid of the "NEW" runes, but they do need a rework to balance out some champions, as it has had a huge impact on all the champions making some of the weaker ones excel over some of the ones that where stronger, which again isn't bad as older champs get to see some daylight again.

OLD RUNES is the best !!!! please removed New RUNES!

Lords Of RageFeb 18, 20181 votes

My problem is the point of the new rune system was to give the game more variety, but it fails to do this. In the old rune system lets say I play twisted fate, I can chose to have more cdr to use abilities more frequently, more move speed to land skill shots/ roam more effectively, or more ap to hit harder/ or ad for even crazier builds of play. How can i do that now with new runes? I have less control in how I want to play with the new runes and it makes the game more stale for me. You can keep or discard the keystone for all I care I just want the ability to control early game stats again.
