Just a reminder regarding the Pre-season and all you "Games are too short" cry-babies

NA Darklarik··7 votes·667 views

**Stop over reacting. ** The pre-season is **always ** a volatile period of extreme ideas (Where you around in 2013's pre-season to see the 'League of Black Cleavers?" or the balancing of the Spirit-line jungle items?), the live server basically becomes the PBE where riot mass tests the wild new ideas before shit finally gets balanced.

Yes, games are currently too stompish. Its natural. They just rolled out a CRAP ton of changes to ADCs, items, stats, MASTERIES, and a lot of other things and more things to come (The promised MAGE update).

THINGS ARE GOING TO BE UNBALANCED. THATS THE **POINT **OF THE PRE-SEASON : TO TEST THINGS.

Stop waling "The game is going downhill" "The game is doomed" "Riot fucked everything up" "GG League".

Play, test, express your thoughts on Reddit on the Boards. Do it in a logical manner in which you point out what you think is unbalanced and why instead of "GG X-Champ is BROKEN".

You sir, have been the second most logical person I have ever seen on the boards. This is refreshing. I am very glad I read your post. People just don't seem to get the point of pre-season I guess.

I'm also under the impression that the steam rolling is in part due to people not yet knowing how to work on this patch. My first game, we got steam rolled because our fiora forgot about the mastery reset. (which is obviously a human error and not a systems problem.)

Second game, the ADC strait up fed, our Kalista/sona lane VS. a Cait/lux lane, I knew we would not survive the extended trade due to the enemy range. Yet Kalista seemed to think that going in and trading was a good idea. (taking way more damage than I could heal.)

mine as well remove pbe then since they let it go through to the live server.

That's not the point of PBE

And don't you remember last preseason? It was just as crazy as this

Yeah, but at least back then I actually likes the changes and the champions that were abusing them.

For game balance I don't think any glass cannon build in any game should ever have flat damage reduction or conversion of sone burst to a long dot. Those changes should never have made it past spit balling imo. Combine it with the fact that the class that gets those items are the least interesting for me to play and u have little to no reason to play this game.

Honestly I'm probably going sit around waiting for the mage update that'll likely invalidate all non-mages before I start playing again.

it is the point of pbe. They suppose to Test patches before they go to the live server or this kinda shit happens, everyone is raging now.

Sadly, as you can see by the downvotes, such will not happen as the boards are full of idiots. [zombie-brand-clap]

This post is a legendary post that should be read by all qq-ers. Meddler even explained that it was necessary to release everything at once because it is interconnected with one another. Upvote x 9000.
