There's no joy in this game anymore.

Everything just feels cancerous now.

Play Blind Pick? You can't ban anyone. Won't be fun to insta-lose even if you're aiming for a new experience/build with a different champ. Play Ranked? Not enough bans to actually make the game less cancerous. Play ARAM? Can't enjoy it anymore because the RNG seems so fixed.

Play League? At least the game is balanced in the fact that everything is cancerous thanks to TLD. I'm sorry that I'm bitter, but I cannot have fun in this game anymore unless it's a bot game with people who actually talk and don't become toxic.

Nobody is forcing you to play league.

No, but it's hard to quit something you've been playing for so long when you keep expecting better. LoL has turned into that one-night stand that developed your first (great) relationship and now you can't have her back.

The RNG in ARAM isn't 'fixed' per-se, but Riot's stubborn refusal to unlock EVERY champion in ARAMS has made ARAM-only smurfs a common and disgusting feature. Stacking champions who perform excellently in ARAMS so you always get someone halfway decent is akin, in my eyes, to cheating, by abusing the system currently in place.

See, if this were happening in an actual game I would be salty. But because I'm not irritated by the state of the game and toxic behaviors affecting said game, it doesn't affect me.

More bans in Ranked ARE need. Mainly because Riot can't fix everything at once and some champions need to be on a permaban state especially for teams who aren't pre-made or have enough sense to ban champs who will wreck non(perfectly)coordinated teams. As for bot games, I can freely do what I like and have people go "oh, that's interesting.", which I don't really do because of my experience in soloq or ranked.

However, I am considered average at this game, I'm sure. So I may not know every trick or play style in the book, but I'm aware of ritualistic atmosphere of SR. It doesn't change and it's not hard to adapt to. But the champions and diversity in balance among them is the hardest thing. Nothing about this game screams 'fun' anymore. Even the skins are boring. Riot refuses to take them in a direction that alters their physical composition completely.

So yes. You can have my silent, calm rage as you put it. But thank you for at least attempting to comment a useful opinion.
