Bring Back The Tank Meta

Please Riot team... I am begging here... This new season is just a complete mess... The first few games I couldn't figure out why it was so hard to come back from my allies getting beat until I started to notice the complete snowballing of teams... I haven't died much in my games, but when my allies die once or twice in their lanes, it's like they can literally never recover... Even when I go to help, enemy with 2-3 kills up on my laners end up making me explode in seconds..

I don't know how or why you guys thought these decisions were good, but I really am not enjoying the new gameplay what so ever.

I have a good grasp on the masteries and have many pages... but the problem I'm now facing is that instead of having my standard ADC page or APC page, or tank page... I'm sitting here having to make a different page for every single champion... Its like... there are sustain ADCs, Crit ADCs, CC ADCs, Regen ADCs... thats just ADCs.... It's not just complicated, from the angle this game has taken over the many seasons it simply doesn't even make sense.

This game has always pushed ADC, APC, Jungle, Support, and Tank, sometimes even troll setups worked because people wanted to have fun and do weird things like 4 man jungle ( sadly I've seen games like this won lol ) but by making the changes you have... you stripped true tanks down to basically nothing... you made crit based dmg dealers just off the wall ridiculous... you made supporting require so many pages for all the different styles of supporting when before 1-2 pages could completely cover basically anyone you wanted to support with...

Some of the new items are just... dumb... no really... they're dumb... the new flask adds dmg but cost 500 gold? that damage even on someone like teemo who is built around DOT style dmg, and poke play barely makes use of this because the damage is so insignificant... just scrap the worthless damage, and bring the old flask back...

We don't want refillable potions that cost 150 gold... we just wanna buy potions when we need them...

your new warding system? What is this? really? you do realize that while you may want to make warding a "team job" in all reality outside pro play, it's basically never gonna happen. Blind pick non-ranked isn't even fun anymore... its just a crap storm till 1 team blows the other team out of the water... there is no comeback play... you even give minions steam rolling which is just beyond my understanding... yet again you make turrets weaker when truthfully they need a serious buff in durability and damage..

The game was never stagnant lanes with people who roamed or had decent jungles, thats just your perception, and its wrong...

I don't know where you are taking this game.... but I'm seriously losing faith, and truthfully not having much fun just because the "meta shift" you intended for really seemed to break the game

Bring back the old masteries, or atlas adjust the old ones and scrap this new stuff because it sucks Get rid of these cheesy items and come up with ideas that actually give different angles of play instead of all this ridiculous passive gold and steam rolling... its simply not fun at all for really anyone

Bring back the tank meta please... I beg you... bring back the fun league games

In trying to simplify it and make masteries more direct, they actually overly complicated them requiring so many more pages than before which i feel really takes away from the game more than what it adds to it
