How long has it been? Because if it's been since before Season 6 I would just treat it as a whole new game.

I have not played since around the middle of season 4.

You will probably need to try to relearn the game from scratch then

It really changed that much? Damn.

Well.... I guess you should go put on a pot of coffee. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch?page=10

Because this will take a while.

Well, I am actually being somewhat serious. The most efficient way and only effective way I can think of, outside of me talking through it all on Skype or something, would be to spend the time read all the changes that have happened since then because there is just no way to give a few tips and have that cover it.

Everything has changed. The jungle gives buffs on every Smite cast. Clairvoyance and Revive have been removed. Dominion is gone. There's new items. A tank item which gives Mobility Boot-like move speed through a momentum passive. An item called Essence Reaver was introduced which basically gave lifesteal for both health and mana. But it sucked and no one bought it so Riot made you buy it by buffing it to the point where it was basically easier to get 30% cooldown reduction on an ADC than a mage. Items were changed. Sheen gives CDR. And Maw is actually good now. Dozens and dozens of champions have been reworked. There's a new class; some champions are trying to be defined as "Juggernauts" by taking immobile champs and defining them to have high melee damage and tankyness. Nidalee Nidalee got changes to let her be in the Jungle and she found that she liked it, and not only became one of the best junglers but even became the best champion in the game for a time. There was the Bilgewater Event where Gangplank Gangplank got reworked and went from "viable if everyone else was nerfed" to a top tier solo-queue champ who was so good with a skilled player he got nerfed 6 times. Poppy is a new champion now. Taric is a new champion now. Sion is a new champion now and people jungled with him just to get a Sion on their team. Graves has a shotgun now. Mordekaiser has a pet dragon. Ryze is getting reworked (for what, his 6th time?). Corki gets a power-up he can collect that turns his dash into a Rumble ultimate.

It's like a new game now.

Why come back? Your day will be ruined when Riot matches you up with people have disorders and think it's funny to be a troll. Then you get #triggered and do what you have to do and you get punished. Stay away from this game.

TIP: Stay away... Don't get addicted again, if you do then start chewing a lot of gum and start exploring somewhere called the "outside" area... Really helps with this addiction. Also, if you can (probably not) get a girlfriend and get laid. Probably helps the most.
