Why do so many veteran LoL players end up quitting?

Not sure how old my account is, been playing around . . when stacking doran blades was actually viable? Anyways lets talk a little bit about why we hate league yet love it so much.

There are so many UNCONTROLLABLE variables in League of Legends. Player skill Champions Items Runes Time zones Game modes

First off, player skill is a huuuuge variable. Simply because its a team game this lures players into a competitive game. . without them realizing it. I'm playing bad. . maybe that other guy will beat them for me. Etc etc less pressure on the individual player at this point. As you play league more and more, you hit a point where you say. . huh lets play ranked and show people how good I am. Then matchmaking slaps you in the face and Ranked has become a complete joke.

Seriously I think Riot only has ranked in the game, just so players get more hours in trying to hit silver gold for end of season rewards. . somewhat simulating the classic game dev excuse of "Hey guys we're still actively updating this awesome game!"

Champions are one of the reasons why people love this game, tbh no one really cares about the storyline we just like seeing the awesome red blobs and players dying, blood gore rpg violence is another good way to drag players into a game. ~~World of warcraft halo skyrim . . zombies ~~

Anyways, the sole reason I believe players are quitting league. . is because its just so hard to keep a team together and go completely all out in LEAGUE OF LEGENDS. Comparing LoL to other competitive games. .

CS:GO vs LoL WoW vs LoL (PvP. . not pve lol) SC2 vs LoL

CS:GO is designed all around the veteran players, this game isn't easy for a reason. Casuals have their casual modes too and newbies are filtered out SO FAST. I climbed to AK at a really fast pace in CS:GO, never had to worry about noobs messing up either. So what if your team is doing bad. . you can still snag kills and have fun o.o

WoW vs LoL - wow is huuugely better for serious PvPer's ever since they made gearing up so easy. PvP has a huge range of options. Battlegrounds, Arena, Dueling is enough to keep me crazed for PvP

SC2 is so catered towards veteran players, that all the noobies just watch the videos and are too afraid to play LOL

Without veteran players, you're gonna have boring tournaments, fewer viewers and an overall unsatisfied playerbase.
