Funny how the PBE changes are so bad that everyone assumed they were April Fools jokes.

Yet Riot basically confirmed that they aren't unless they're just pushing the joke further.

RIP this game.

PBE changes are always bad according to ignorant players. This time they just have something to use as an excuse. That is the only difference here.

Who is this "everyone" and why is this the first time I am hearing of this?

Also, why are people always "DOOM AND DESPAIR" or "CHANGE IS THE ANTI-CHRIST" about things? Seriously, not only is it literally just a game, but several of the changes I see as being beneficial. Only three stand out as being potentially problematic, and two of those were, as them being on the PBE should suggest, just ideas thrown out to be tested and were not final(the two being Jinx change and the Lux change). The Kat change, where her ult has a 15 second cooldown, I can see being game breaking as she can ult repeatedly. **But **, like a sensible person, not only do I not expect that to be let past as is, but I'm not going to be crying out "doom and despair" or "change is the anti-christ" like some of the people on these boards. Why? Because, I'm sure this comes as a shock to some members, there are ways to protest without being so toxic that you drive away any Rioters that wish to see the reactions to changes.

You have better chances of being listened to if you seem like a sensible person, and not like a rabid 1752 flash mob member.

Suck up to Uncle Rito harder pls. You might get a banana sticker as a reward.

So because I take a "wait and see what happens before I pass judgement" approach to life, the fact that I despise bashing people who I don't know, nor have had any contact with, and the fact that I am a laid back person who has long since learned to go with the flow and can't be raised to outraged over something as simple as a potential change, not even a locked in one, I am "sucking up"?

People...

People make this claim every time this early april patch happens regardless of the patch's contents. It's happened every time since I've started this game so it's not really shocking.
