A sad, sad game this has become.

A game of stomps. A game of who is ahead in gold at 15 mins. Leads that close the game out before you even get to play. I remember the fun part of this game being for me getting out of laning phase into team fights. Now its the first team to grab that first tower gold and rotate out. Or the team thats 8/0. You used to be able to come back from bad laning phases. Now it seems like whole teams are fed. instead of a single champion.

I was hoping when i watched Riot Pls: League of Legends 2017 Development video back in march they would address the giant elephant in the room. The state of the game. But they seem to avoid it all together. I have seen threads with over 200 upvotes on the boards about this written better then i could even put it. Yet no riot comments. Guys the problem with this game and how it used to be isnt assassins being op, or tanks being op etc. It is the game being solidified in laning phase. I am not saying comebacks are completely impossible now. But highly unlikely. Much more so then they used to be when i started playing. And i see no big streamers mentioning this. Riot doesnt mention it and its really sad. "towers being weaker" "damage creep" "balancing for pro play" whatever you wish to call it. It turns the game into garbage. And the higher you climb you are actually rewarded less because people make less mistakes and make it even more impossible to even out early leads. I understand pro play is a big market but nobody will want to watch if nobody even wants to play the game anymore. And im not even sure the players themselves much enjoy it anymore. Not to forget they play solo queue too.

I know this is poorly worded and written off the top of my head but i just think it needs to be addressed again. Wondering when people will get tired of the true meta. not the adc meta, the tank meta, the assassin meta... The STOMP meta. the games being decided as early as 15 meta. Even an earlier ff timer was implemented into the game. (altough nobody recognizes it and refuses to use it ) Balanced or not fun is drained out of this game now. and i mean DRAINED. Every last fiber of life blood sucked out as if it was bombarded by horde of ravenous leeches, only the empty skin remaining. (and it costs 1800 RP lul) bad joke.

anyway i know i'll get the so quit playing, but i cant my life is trash. have a nice day.

Five easy ways to fix it:

  1. Buff turret armor, MR, and overall health. Also, make them actually hurt people from early to late game instead of being able to solo a turret from 100% to rubble with one champ standing under it without minions
  2. Stop the freakin' minions from walking anywhere they please because the pathing is ridiculous
  3. Stop balancing the game (or unbalancing) based on what LCS players say. We pay YOUR and THEIR salaries, listen to the players who actually make you money. If they are pros they can adjust, right?
  4. Make a new rule that any balance team member with a bias TOWARDS or AGAINST specific champions cannot touch that champ in any balance changes on penalty of termination.
  5. Bring back Team Builder. Period. Every blind pick game issue can be fixed with Team Builder because it is superior in every way to champ select and this was made in 2013.

Nostalgia glasses are a burden for many. Luckily I only started playing a couple years ago so this is my normal.

This game's always been about stomps.
