Why has mobility taken over the game ?
I remember back in the days (around 4 years ago), there wasn't so much mobility in game. Now I feel like 70% of the roster has a dash / an invulnerability / a blink. This was reserved to champions dedicated to it (Fizz / Leblanc / Ahri / Katarina ...).
I feel like since Yasuo was released, every single champion right after got tons of mobility / mad skillz / playz, even the reworked ones. Even some who shouldn't (why does Galio or Ornn even have a dash ?)
That's really disgusting imo, since it literally ruined the "real skill" to be able to dodge skillshot, since nowadays you can just press a button and move 40km away without effort (and how "shiny" are made the animations of these dashes, you just feel like you outplayed someone with something difficult to achieve, no, I'm not looking at you Yasuo main who's flashing his mastery 7 after pressing E twice).
I'm not an ADC main, but for instance take Draven as a champ. Draven has to sidestep a lot because of his axes, and enemies skillshots (I know, others champions too, but Draven has it harder, if mastered). It's really impressive seeing some Draven being able to dodge skillshots while catching their axes, either in teamfight, or even in lane.
Now let's take something like Yasuo or Talon (new one). Yasuo fucked up a move, who cares ? He can use his dash on a minion and move away (it still takes a few braincells to realise that his dash works like a skillshot). Talon gets ganked in lane, because he overextended it without paying attention. Talon runs away, spams his E against walls, and is safe. Since you were playing Fiddlesticks (I'm neither a FIddlesticks player, it's just to compare new kits to old ones), you can't even follow up.
I can say that I'm really disappointed how LoL turned out over the years. Making overloaded kits doesn't add skill to the game, in fact, in my opinion, it even removes the "skill" itself, since it's just way too forgiving. I'm still playing it, thanks to some friends, but I'm really starting to lose interest in the game, and I'm starting to drift away from it.
I don't care if you start saying things like "lul shut up ur just bronze", this is exactly one of the reason that makes me lose interest in it. It's not a game anymore, people don't play to have fun, only to see a "Victory" screen at the end and seeing the "Diamond division" near their names.
are all 2009 as well. Looking over the rooster of the some 38 champions 28 of them had dash/blink/gapcloser/MS boost. Of the remaining 10, 3 did not have Hard CC in their kit.
