The vocal minority is what ruined URF
Not "meta sheep" or "tryhards" The fact fact that the people defending arurf are using these words should be telling, but ill explain it anyway.
It was the the people who expected perfect balance out of a joke casual mode, and cried out for everything to be balanced and cool interactions removed, because the can't handle losing. Do people not understand that in a video game there are always gonna be the best picks? But even so how does what other people pick ruin your experience, you get to pick the exact same thing, also how does playing against the same champs ruin it when you yourself can pick different? It makes zero sense.
Also, it was the solo players that also ruined it. In league team 5s play was mostly supposed to be in casual play (that's why dynamic que got so much shit here) We had solo players coming on here and b1tching about how URFmode wasn't friendly towards them, even though all of the other random game mode highly promote team play (these are the same peeps than came on the boards bishing about 1 for ALL's lotto system) You shouldn't expect to have a Great solo experience in a CASUAL game mode. Because of you guys, riot ruined URF for team play and i can't get any of my discord friends to play it with me anymore...
Most players didn't give a shit about thew "meta" or op picks. I could play blitzcrank or garen in urf all day and it was ALWAYS fun, no matter who i was facing. All my friends (who don't care about the boards) loved it too. Sadly the vocal minority ruined it completely by expecting too much out of it. And Riot has too listen or "they don't care about their playerbase"
