Well I gave it a chance

When Runes reforge were announced I was actually pretty hopeful and excited to try them out. I then went and tried them out on the PBE but, sadly, I immensely disappointed. They felt far to much like I had to take very select things based on who I was playing and though it has gotten better I still find myself taking the same things. I much prefer the Season 7 runes and masteries. Honestly, I just find the whole system kinda boring which isn't helped by all the changes Riot has made to the game outside of the runes. It's been over 6 months since they came out and I don't see them getting any better.

The balance this season out side of the runes has been terrible. They randomly buff and nerf champs ho don't need them while leaving the champs destroying everyone alone. I know this isn't new but it has increased so much this season. This season it seems like they are throwing darts at a board and based on what it hits that's what they decide to change. There seems to be no reason behind a lot the changes. I think the worst part though is that Riot is doubling down on a lot of then bad choices they have made this season while undoing others to some degree. What do you want this game to be and why, Riot? Why do you want every match to be break neck speed? You are not CoD though I wish you because I actually have competitive matches in CoD unlike League now where every match is a stomp. Even the games that aren't stomp are just so unsatisfying to play. There has only been two matches I've played this whole season where I walked away being like "that was actually fun."

I just needed to rant a bit. It's just sad and amazing at how much less enjoyable this game has become in such a short time. It's truly a sad thing to see. Like a childhood friend making many bad choices that hurt them and you can't stop them no matter how hard you try. The only thing that keeps me coming back is that there are some champs that I just really enjoy playing but even then I'm normally off after a match or two.
