The game feels so flow-charty now.
It’s basically just the same pattern to victory every game.
- Get even a tiny lead on the enemy
- Freeze until you have a monstrous wave
- Force enemy out of lane knowing full well they can’t trade into your wave
- Crash your wave and collect 320-480 gold in turret plates and get over a 1k gold lead
- Recall, come back to lane and hard stomp with your item lead until you win
- Continue your snowball until you can just beat people over the head with your stat advantage.
I mean sure. The first couple minutes fighting over wave control and level 2-3-6 power spikes happens for a small amount of time, but between and after that, there is no real variance. It’s either you get that small advantage and collect your win, or you’re the one biting the pillow as they run through you.
Not to mention how horrible it feels being on the losing end. It used to be if you fell behind, you could attempt to keep up by just playing it safe, getting safe cs and then being useful in team fights. But that just doesn’t work anymore. It’s just hard stomp or being hard stomped.
While high highs and low lows are a fine concept, it’s gets old extremely quickly.
