So for a while now I feel like league is genuinely dying, as in the community isn't as active as much. The team recruitment forums are pretty dead and it takes forever to get a full team whereas before it would instant. Also I feel like the LCS scene is dead too and not as many people are watching nor caring. How do you feel?

inta ques for us support mains.

LCS is pretty boring, usually just the same 15 or so champs. Gone are the days of gambit doing some silly builds or UoL bursting out poppy top or akali

yes and im glad for it, it would give riot an incentive to actually fix their game instead of whipping out bullshit to see if that would make the game more cool looking for the LCS BIG PLAYS

When I go into Ranked Teams with friends, the queue times range from 5s to instantaneous. From that alone, I'm pretty flippin' sure that League isn't DYING so much as experiencing an outbreak of complainers supplemented by the release of Overwatch and Dynamic queue.

There is some level of fatigue with League, esp with some of Rito's recent decisions to lie to the playerbase. However ..... theres no good alternatives right now since my potoato cant run overwatch =(

Doesn't feel that way to me. Team recruitments are dead because 5s died down thanks to dynamic queue which allowed people to play with friends but on a less competitive system. People aren't forced to do teams anymore to play with more than 1 friend.

I stopped playing about a year and a half ago (was playing too much, also started a very time consuming sport), and just got back into it 2 months ago. I am obsessed and have already bought some RP to support Riot! I think that they are doing some silly things (such as yet another Ryze rework before Yorick), but as a Normals player, the game is only getting better. They are releasing champions often, introducing new items, and helping out champions that needed some love.

People can complain all they want (which is all I see on these forums), but this game for sure isn't dying.

EDIT: I do agree LCS is boring though, that's just because the games move super slowly, and the players have mastered abusing ove-rtuned champions, so you see the same ones over and over.
