Guys, come on, lay off Rito's ass. Look at how the game used to be and how it is now.

Yes, there are many opinions on the game being bad, but can't you all stop?

They're listening. Yes, it's good to give feedback, be it negative or positive, but most errr, a good chunk of you, on here and on Twitter are offering feedback that is "huuurrr muh jungle, muh smite midd luuulllll".

Write your thoughts in a concise, idea-based manner, not just go around QQ'ing. Looking at you, streamers.

Riot's improved this game tremendously. Next year, they'll offer even better matchmaking. They have a history of making things better, but I guess, once an issue is solved, you guys want more.

Understand they're a big company and changes cannot happen without the approval of many people, so they can't instantly fix any issues the redditors seem to have. It takes observing, testing and even more testing.

For what it's worth, I don't think there's a better game out there - legit can keep you entertained for years and years, it always maintains its "fresh" state due to the variance in items and champions.

Seriously, cut them some slack.

LOL I bet a lot like me will disagree that the Riot has made the game worse than it was before, not "improved it tremendously."

Nothing that they changed speaks to me that it really improved the game at all.

Yes actually. That was part of what made the game fun. As much as there was frustration at being oneshot (typically adc's by assassin's) there was a power fantasy for every champion that was (for the most part) lived up too most games.

Assassin's got to 1 shot, and it felt good when you as the assassin did that.

Marksmen got to scale into late game monsters and wreck face, that felt great too.

Mages got to deal tons of aoe damage and control the battlefield. Hey that also felt great.

Tanks got to live forever cc'ing everything and being a general nuicense. (I hate tanks, but from what I heard that also felt great)

Support arguably got the short stick, however some people legit loved being able to ward everything

Bruisers got to live for a while and just brawl whatever they wanted. Basically a jack of all trades. They feared no 1v1 fight and it felt great.

The game went downhill when riot started balancing based on the recieved end instead of the giving end. Everyone played the game for the highs. Not the lows. Now we have a game that doesn't deliver the highs because riot wanted to remove the lows. However it was the highs that made the game fun.

Let's take this one champion, out of 150, and ignore everything else.

One thing.

Out of about 600 things happening in the game.

Very smart indeed.

If they would implement some changes being asked for for YEARS instead of pushing the new skins and merch.....

Its not something you can say 100% better or worse. Its better in many ways, and with that came different problems.

Champ select is no longer a circus, but games themselves are still a circus. Less of a circus... maybe- I think game popularity has kept the circus alive and well.

Players are still being placed into silver in promos, so the ladder is completely fucked up from gold down. Games feel completely random about 70% of the time in that area. You get some real random shit.

New player experience because of that, is terrible.

The biggest issue for me is the random games. For this game to be fun, the games need to have some sort of feeling of consistency. It needs to feel like a ranked ladder.

Otherwise wins feel just as random as the games and every win has a bad taste of- well here comes the random next one that I'll probably lose.

It just feels terrible right now.

Ya, while in general I agree Rito has made each season interesting and fun in different ways, S8 is a steaming pile. We keep getting more and more champs in the pool, but less and less of the viable. The rune change made huge disparities among champs and now it is just getting uglier in the jungle. At least in past seasons I could play a lot of fun champs and at least hold my own amidst all of the bugs. Now I either play a select few champs or it is a massive gimp to my team.

So I agree with you about Rito if you just leave S8 out of it.
