"Dont mind me, im just someone who played this game nonstop since season 2. Im just a old man who loves the good old days"

Elder Dragon is a instant win. Needs a rework.

Top has no influence in the game currently. It's not healthy or fun for a top lane to be the only player who has to roll the dice and pray to god the jungler is good enough to camp bot and spam dragons when ever they are up.

The Dragons themselves are way to snowbally. I feel like whoever gets the first dragon always wins and will get the rest of them.

Jungler has way too much importance in the game due to changes in the preseason. So a bad Jungler can lose a game and good jungler is a god that no one can do anything really about. A jungler who farms will get out done by a jungler who sets a tent bot lane and gets drags 100% of the time.

Bot Lane Meta is stale. Kai, Cait, Aphelios. Nerf the champs for the love of god so I can see different bot lane champions.

Top Lane Meta is stale and incredibly unbalanced, as always. If you are not playing Garen, Morde, Malphite, Ornn, or Renekton then you just lose. All of these champions can lose if you have a good jungler who can assist you, but its in my opinion unhealthy gameplay to HAVE to rely on someone else to win a game. Not only that jungler has better places to be than top until AFTER they win bot and get 2 drags before laning phase.

Top lane has the most playstyles of any lane but they are all incredibly weak in a already weak influential lane. Examples being Jayce, Wukong, Gangplank, Riven, Rengar, Cho Gath, and Jax just are not viable in higher elo. Because the previously stated champions not only out damage them, but can out tank them.

The whole dog pile bot lane is not healthy or fun to play against or use. The strategy is boring but super effective.

Honestly Rift Herald is weak. It doesn't matter if you can get one tower when dragon can win the game. Tower < The Game. Rift could use either a huge buff or a rework to make top lane more viable. A good idea is a team wide buff for the early game.

I will say that Mid lane feels good, doesn't really seem like the role was hit negatively. Its a better top lane where they get to influence the game while also seeing the jungler.

Overall, I may hate the junglers now, but I know deep down its the seasons fault to why junglers kinda have it hard and we all go back to the season 3 mentality of "flame the jungler", but the way the season is they have WAY TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY!!!!! WAY TO MUCH POWER! So I suggest easing up on the junglers by reworking dragons and rift or nerfing drags and buffing rift and instead rewarding junglers who farm their jungle more.

I get most of this but i dont agree with this. League is a 10 person game the people who work together should righfully be more ahead. You should rely on allies and have allies rely on you. It isnt consistent but you cant make such a thing consistent without just making one the classes op and the rest useless. Junglers not being able to come top i also dont beleive that there are lots of opportinites to gank all of the lanes just that bot needs to prioritized around 7 minutes which is when most junglers can do Dragon. Warwick is a special case that does dragon at level 4. Lastly blaming junglers for having too much power and bot lane meta. In my opinion thats akin to blaming the primary school teacher for some the faults of some one who robs and murders or the accomplishments of some one who is a war Hero or cured cancer. The primary school teacher did have some impact and may have even helped it along positively or negatively but its ultimately the strength of the Person who made the decisions. In the same way junglers Do have impact but its largely blaming junglers for helping the adc when adcs getting ahead win you the game because they are so powerful. Ultimately its that adcs are busted that keeps people comming bot to help them in attempt to get their busted character an advantage over the enemies busted character. Mages are also busted as seen by when adcs were slightly less powerful mages were being seen as replacements. nerfing one without the other just gets the other replacing them and the nerf one crying look my class is unplayable because that other super broken class didnt get nerfed too. Biggest problem with top lane figjters is that they are forced out of damage because they are melee and dont get free engages and excapes like assassins. so they build hp ad items but lose because they get poked and bursted out from ranged characters who are just as fast as them have less wind ups to keep them in place and have mobility and cc to perma kite them and even if they catch some one cause they were looking away talking to some one inbeween cooldowns or something fighters damage is low and sustained thus they just get finished off the next burst combo in 3 seconds. The reason this happens because riot keeps nerfing the damage side of fighter items at the same time as making literally every other non fighter and tank class tankier through base stats because those classes designated as 'Squishies' cry its not fun to be one shot by some one who is tanky which they can remedy by building defenses but unlike fighter mains they will stick to their builds lose with it then point to their winrate as evidence while fighter mains will switch their build path to one that loses less so even if they say my old build path is garbage riot said well that new build path isnt losing so much do that despite that build path not being a fighter build path its a 1 damage item tank build path.
