5.16 : The Patch that Broke League.

Riot, I have zero idea what you were thinking by buffing Morde, Garen and Darius in the same patch. Not only did you make it basically unviable to play any ADC anymore, but you also 2 top laners that were already lane bullies insanely strong early games and late games. As an ADC main I literally find myself not wanting to even touch this game anymore because I can't even play the champions I enjoy without being one shot.

If you think Darius got buffed you are a noob that can't kite. He is now useless at all stages of the game which is why he is getting buffs.

So, what if you play an ADC like Twitch? Who's auto range is the same range as Darius's pull? He pulls you in, you get immediately Q'd then slowed. By then the rest of the team is on you. Kite your way out of that one.

See, the thing is to never put yourself in that position to begin with. If Darius is ever within pull range of you; your team should be peeling for you, since for Darius to be in range of you; he needs to be within range of four other people.

That said, Darius' early game is much worse than it once was; similar story with Garen (less so for him though; his early game is still relatively decent, not great though)

Both of them definitely got buffs to their lategames though.
