Everything is going downhill

Pro scene - pro players don't even think solo queue is worth it to train for competitive play anymore Tournaments - boring matches, with players constantly exploiting strategies that are supposed to be hotfixed Ranked - dumb promotion system, outdated matchmaking, and a forced 50% winrate to keep players from ranking up too fast Duo with friends - matched with three lower mmr players intentionally Boards - full of trolls and toxic players themselves that only complain.. and only the idiots are listened to. Runes - overbearing damage, no more magic resist or armor to survive damage Spells - ignite buffed to 500 damage, LOL what Game launcher - full of popups and cluttered from rewards that no one cares about

The awesome playerbase ditched this game for Fortnight, because it's not fun to play anymore. Every other game we got extremely toxic players that are leftover on top of being garbage at the game.

I think its hilarious that Dota2 is even remotely close to being a competitor, just because it's an awful and BORING game that losers play just because steam throws around a few "cash" tournaments.

Even the last tournament with Ardent Censor meta was a complete FAILURE. I honestly don't even know why there's a tournament so soon, when the game is went full-circle into Pre-Alpha runes. We haven't even gotten to Closed-Beta yet with these runes, they are far from being balanced.

The game doesn't need to be dumbed down, you can't fix stupid. That's why Yasuo, Zed and other stupid champions are meta right now, because idiots can play them and think they're good. Honestly why would anyone play Darius? Because he's has a good design? Yea right, it's because his winrates are through the roof, you literally run up to players and roll your face across the keyboard and they can't do anything but run away LOL Mundo being exploited in solo queue right now, completely unkillable and broken. Where's the hotfix for that?

Don't worry, after Riot cashes in all of the skin sale money off of Darius and Garen, we'll start seeing soft nerfs.

It's as if RIOT GAMES KNOWS the game is dying, so they're trying to milk the community for what money they have left. Why do you think they were so dead set on the tribunal and banning said "Toxic players"? To ban accounts and make a profit off of EXP boosts and new accounts. Why do you think they removed IP and replaced it with a gambling system? Champion capsules.. locked chests... keys... jumping on the cash grab train like Counter-Strike/Valve are doing with the weapon skins LOL

Meanwhile all of this is happening The community KNOWs, and they're finally leaving the game.

Ghostcrawlers mission of shorter games is what has brought us here.

The reality is this game cannot function the way I would like to experience it. A awesome adventure where you slowly build up and live out your roleplay.

Wether you are a healer,tank,DPS front line,dive in middle of the fight to clean up (ASSASSIN). Whatever you wanted to be and the damage wasn't so fucking overbearing you could make it work(atleast better than you can now).

Now you just take full damage runes jump on the first person you see because you know there is a good chance you can kill him in 1 rotation. Like what the fuck.

Wow this post is so right! Riot has to improve match making( ranked pref please god fix ranked) like how can I play 11 games of ranked be the top player on my team in damage gold and not always vision because I’m adc and can’t always spam buy pinks. And always have one or two players dying way to much, one afk, or two people who are just trying out a champ for the first time. Then you said it, forced 50 percent win rate..... it’s fucking forced riots been ducking everyone forever.... couple more years and league is going to be wiped.

I can't agree more to this I spammed this game since March roughly and had fun learning all the champs and the game as a whole but since 8.23 I can't play this game and have a fun game. When I came to this game I expected it to be my next CS:GO or R6S, a competitive game in which I can sink hours in but that is clearly not the case. In both CS:GO and R6S every round was winnable but in this game it's rare to see a close game that is down to the players making a mistake and losing an objective or the game. Not to mention the balance team which is simply put awful. I read a few posts on reddit agreeing and stating how the in past seasons mages could use more that 1 spell rotation, which actually sounds fun to me at least or having each champ become a mini urf version of themselves. The balance team has the power to achieve this but they take too long and when they do nerf or buff someone it's not done right, I can't imagine someone who's job is to make the game fair can do such a bad job especially considering they do this for a living. I have respect for the skin animation and lore teams but the most important one is lacking.
