Would the boards be happy if...

...this game was literally nothing but slow moving, melee, tanky stat sticks, who farm for 40 minutes. Then slap one another with numbers? Because that is what it feels like.

Maybe I'm just trippin' on my pain meds. :^)

No dear Dragon Lady, and this is why:

The boards can best be described as a two headed sleeping dragon.

Now these heads want different living environments and nourishment, and will roar and be generally loud when they don't get what they want.

Feed one head what it wants and it will sleep silently.

However it goes to the stomach of both heads, and the other head doesn't like that food, so it roars and snarls and breaths fire all over the place.

In a similar fashion, make things comfortable for the second head, like set the room temperature to 120*, will make the head fall asleep in contentment.

However this wakes the first head, who likes cold rooms. So this head roars and snarls and breaths fore everywhere.

TL;DR

There are two sides of the boards to every aspect of this game. Typically the content side says nothing and "sleeps".

The other side will spam the boards with complaints and say that Riot is killing the game.

If the game goes in the direction to please them, the previously sleeping side will wake up and start complaining.

It is a vicious cycle.

It's almost like people are different, and all of them have their own opinions on everything. Who knew right???

range is a stat stick

his game was literally nothing but slow moving, melee, tanky stat sticks, who farm for 40 minutes.

also how is this the case? Renekton is a stat stick if I've ever seen one and he'd shit all over your face in lane

how do you make a non-stat stick champion have an actual power curve that isn't "I am relevant all game no matter how hard I fuck up" because we've seen the champs with abilities that do everything they want Ekko Yasuo Kalista and I've gotta say, I would rather have more Garens

Nah. they would cry because 60 minute games would still be too fast for them.

you tell me son

i'm an otp darius right now and he isn't: -stat stick -doesn't farm for 40 min -not tanky until having at least 3 items

he's the least binary melee ever created with some champs like yasuo because so many outcomes can happen unlike jax for example

or shyvana

Hey are you by chance related to the M&G guy named SonaXRubick?

You two have similar names, just wondering if you're the same person...

I am indeed :p

Ah well that's interesting to know.

Good luck with your better ping.

Kinda what I meant. The boards hates Darius because he is a champ with options and deep gameplay. They seem to hate anything that isn't nasus, yorick, garen or renekton in top. Or of course any hipster nerfed champions.

Ahristocats1 votes

2 weeks ago the board was saying that darius was extremely balanced and everyone should be on his level

like your comrade said ther isn't one board, there are a lot of people and their opinions are different

What if that was a rotating gamemode? Everyone has increased defense stats and all you need to do is farm and splitpush all game. I'm not sure if anyone would play it though...but it would be pretty goofy.
