Game changed from having simple mechanics and complex strategies

to complex mechanics and simple strategies.

Please bring back brain usage to League.

I used to play RTS games all the time like Age of Empries, Rise of Nations, Warcraft, and Command & Conquer. They were slow-paced and highly strategic.

League used to be appealing because it felt like a fast-paced RTS game, in a sense. A game in which there are 'roleplay', fantasy elements, strategy, and adrenaline rushes. Everything was so perfectly together.

Now it has become 'hur durrr I got fb playing kha zix mashing q now gg @ 15' (because games end before 20 now).

I've had longer games of chess than these.

pretty much. In season 4/5 you could hard carry with some champs that didn't have the hardest mechanics but with good macro, you could pull it off.

This season, the numbers on assassins and bruisers are so high, once they get a lead they're invincible.

Like, I've literally lost games with an 8k gold lead just because I was playing an inferior champ and died once.

16-1? I lost to a 3-2 Kha'Zix who became 9-5 because I was playing an inferior champion. That's how different the power levels are between champions right now.
