Quitting LoL

Restaki··4 votes·2,016 views

So hello. I'm a jungle Shaco main and i have been playing LoL for 3 years now. I have seen LoL's ups and downs but i always kept playing because i believed in Riot. I've seen Riot fuck up many times. But i kept playing because i knew they'll fix it and it'll be okay so i didn't quit. So i kept saying to myself that it'll be okay and not to worry about it even when they completely fucked me as a Shaco main over by bringing champions that completely and utterly counter me and there's nothing i could do. Even then i kept playing because i tried to be as positive as i can and kept telling myself that champions could be banned and everything will be okay. So i kept playing and hoped that LoL would have a future because i invested hundreds of hours into it hoping that LoL wouldn't do something so bad that they couldn't recover from it. And i think now is the time that they fucked up so bad that if they implement it into the game there wouldn't be any going back. I have seen all of the PBE changes and they're utter shit. Riot nerfed one of the weakest character in the whole game so bad that he does absolutely zero damage. But changing Shaco to utter shit wasn't the worst part that they did. The worst thing that they did were the fucking changes to jungle. They removed the buffs and implemented some RNG flowers that are utter shit. I don't get how Riot can't learn from feedback. Everyone hated the drakes because of the RNG so the masterminds of Riot degenerate corporations thought ,,Oh let's implement so much RNG that the game would be 100% luck!" So now i'm quitting LoL. I'm stupid that i didn't quit playing League when the drakes came. I probably had a nostalgia boner from the time the game was actually good. So in season 7 i'm quitting LoL forever because it's not the game that i loved, it's not skill based, it's not good, it's not anything that i search for in a game. Riot i really hope that you realise that you fucked up extremely big time.

Shaco is one of the hardest characters in the game. But if you think that a weak out of meta hard champ is easy then sure go on i don't mind.

"hard champ" lol gets invisibility, a fear and crit if facing towards someones back... pretty easy

He gets three things. Four, because you forgot to even mention his clone.

Now compare that with, for example, Lee Sin, who has a tool for every situation.

Which one is actually harder to play?

Restaki2 votes

I kinda don't understand your first two lines but if you're asking if Lee or Shaco is harder to play then i would probably say Lee.

Restaki1 votes

5.24% Playrate 1.84% Banrate Kinda speaks for itself. Doesn't it?

Flaherty3 votes

All that says is no one plays him. There are several reasons why a champion isn't popular, it doesn't mean they are hard.

I agree! For example, Galio is extremely easy but has a very low playrate. Lee Sin is extremely hard but always has a massive playrate.

Restaki1 votes

Everyone sees good Lee players and thinks that he is an op champ so they ban him without realising that like 90% of the times Lee players are shit and the ban was really pointless. And tbh in 3 years of playing i have seen only a few Galio players so the lack of popularity is the reason he's not banned.

Well Shaco is. Read my previous reply.

Restaki1 votes

It doesn't. But what it does mean is out of meta and out of meta means not as good as could be atm. And Shaco is really out of meta just like Urgot or Morder. Which means really not as good as could be atm which is in other words shit.

It's pretty hard when you have nothing but doran's ring or shield.

LoL needs more trollers to punish the feeding fucks. It's bad for the game that i'm quitting but i need to quit because Riot has so much autism.

So you are one of those people. The I am high and mighty, it is everyone else's fault. As a jungle you can influence a game pretty heavily yourself. Top isn't doing well? Either babysit them or focus on the other two. Some games I won't gank my friend's lane because I see he is outmatched and will focus the others, only going to his when I'm confident in a kill. I still que a lot as support, mainly because quicker due times, but also do jungle. Even if every lane is feeding doesn't mean quit. People throw a lot, especially in lower elo. Sometimes you just have to suck it up and deal with it.

Restaki1 votes

Suck up what? Suck up that every other game every lane is feeding? I throw because i want these feeding fucks who feed in a lane where nobody has ganked them to lose. If some lane is doing well then i will gank them but 2v5 isn't possible anymore. LoL is a shit game where feeders aren't punished which is fucking retarded as shit because they ruin the game for me as well.

Flaherty3 votes

Not to be rude, but literally no one cares.

Restaki2 votes

I care a lot. Because LoL was so fucking fun when it was good.

Flaherty3 votes

I understand, but I don't see any point in making a long post about why you're leaving. No one who knows you in real life is reading this and no one who doesn't know you personally is going to care. If you're not happy with the game then leave it, there's no point in playing a game you don't find fun. If you made this so that people could convince you to stay then just say that.

Restaki1 votes

Lol no! xD I sent a message to Riot via Twitter that LoL is shit and i'm quitting it so they said that i would post here about the reason why and so they could improve on that. The message reads "@JumpOff_ABridge If you're not a fan of the changes made to Shaco why not let us know in the boards: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance … 4:05 PM - 25 Oct 2016"

Flaherty3 votes

Have you personally played with the new Shaco changes and the jungle changes in the pbe? Or did you just decide it was all terrible from seeing a couple videos/board posts about it?

Restaki1 votes

I don't personally have a PBE account. But my classmate who plays on EUW has one so i went to his place and i played two Shaco games and i hated it. The Q was really shit E didn't do damage because i wasn't going hydra. I couldn't stack boxes. Ult upgrage was so useless because there wasn't a single time in two games that it helped me even just a little. I hated the new jungle as well because the rocks didn't give a solid lvl 2 or 3 they gave 2 and a half which is fucking retarded. There are too many birds and they'll kill you instantly because there are now seven of them. The plants were so bad because my enemy could see me taking my rocks or something with no mana and kill me just because of the fucking retarded RNG system. There wasn't a single thing i enjoyed about it.

Flaherty2 votes

2 games? That's hardly enough to really get a feel for any kind of changes that big. And pbe changes all the time, I seriously doubt anything is going be the exact same when it's finally live.

Restaki1 votes

They might change a few things but the flowers are gonna stay the same and Shaco might get a few buffs. But if he doesn't get new scalings then he's still gonna be shit.

MR KIMCHI SENPAI1 votes

LOL that's actually so hilarious and these changes are absolutely retarded.

S3 diamond jungle here, 700+ shaco games, quit being a jungler after S3 because Riot started making retarded changes to the jungle, played a lot of mid, got used to the new jungle, they changed it again.

Thought smite buffs, drakes, herald, crabs, and toad were fucking retarded. They changed smite damage or monster health or something, never lost smite challenges in S3, started losing every fucking objective after changes. Changed experience. Which also changes champion clear times (back in the day we used to memorise the clear times for every viable jungle champ, like Jarvan 3:20, etc.) Changed the whole jungle, have to memorise the new warding spots, etc. Basically everything you used to know goes to shit.

Now they add plants ROFL

Seriously I'm just farming ip so I can buy champions for other lanes instead of this shitty jungle like every season.

Restaki1 votes

What's the point? As i can see from your message League has been going downhill from season 3 Why the fuck are you continuing to play this shitty game that's only getting shittier patch by patch? I think that us who think that Riot is retarded should quit the game so Riot would realise that the plants are so retarded that it gave like 30m people autism. Why won't you just stop playing the game with me and everyone else who's sick of seeing Riot shit on their own game?

AttackOnTeemos2 votes

He will be back once the patch comes, I don't get why people feel the need to make announcement that they are going to quit. All they going to do is sit here and read the forums on see is + or - about the issue. Get angry when someone like me calls them out on their B.S. But they can't do anything cause guess what "they quit" They make changes to the game omg, QQ we are so sad the only champion in this game out of 90 to pick from is Shaco.

Going off your match history I like how you decided to troll and buy all dorian shields on shaco and lose. WHich I'm sure is bannable anyway so don't come back qqing if you try and log in and your account is banned :D.

I decide to troll in many of my games even after i'm doing well is because my team is fucking retarded. But that has absolutely nothing to do with this topic of quitting LoL. The reason i made this topic and said that i'm going to quit LoL is because Riot wanted me to and i want Riot to know how bad they fucked up.

FiddlesOnTheRoof2 votes

Every change they're making is great, except plans. now, don't get me wrong, I HATE the plants because I HATE rng. Same reason I hate crit. But everything else is great. And shaco has always been a mess. Completely over powered early with no counter play, and completely worthless late, serving no purpose. He needed a complete overhaul. But, imo, this season was a low point for league. Riot seemed to largely disregard players. This pre season, it definitely seems like they're listening. New client, replay, sandbox, etc. I think riot is cooperating with players on a whole new level now. This season is going to be awesome. I understand frustration with your favorite champion being changed. Malz used to be one of my mains. Even though I know he had been good since the rework, he hasn't been FUN since the rework. My point is, find another champion you really enjoy, and see where the season goes. I think it's going to be a good one. :)

Restaki1 votes

Thank you dude but i won't be playing League anymore if the plants don't leave. I agree that the replay and sandbox are awesome but if the game is 100% luck then what's the point? You can decorate a shit but it's still a pile of shit.

FiddlesOnTheRoof1 votes

I hate the rng too, but the game is still 100% skill. There won't be people that find themselves in diamond unreservedly because they stumbled into the right plants in the jungle. They're not very impressive buffs anyways. Again, I don't like them, but they're not a big deal

Jesus Is My King2 votes

well, ill be quitting when Akali gets her HARD nerf. so im with you man. dont worry.

Restaki3 votes

Thanks dude. Maybe Riot finally sees that they can't just fuck up everything if many players quit playing the game.

i mean what other choice do i have? play a fucked champion and expect to get high elo? just isnt going to happen. not with this rework.

Restaki1 votes

Of course dude. Shaco Akali and other reshitted champions are done. Plus the jungle is complete garbage so there is absolutely no reason to continue playing this retarded fucking game.

see you in a week... maybe tomorrow

also... too long did not read! and HOLY WALL OF TEXT BATMAN!

Restaki1 votes

I'm gonna play LoL until season 7 then i'm gonna quit forever. But in other words the text said that Riot has fucked up too big time so now they can't fix it and it's now a big waste of time because the game is only going down hill.

then why are you even bothering to play until season 7 instead of just stopping right now if you feel like this? oh right! because you aren't quitting at all and are just making another worthless "i'm quitting" type of thread that hold impact whatsoever and are only looking for attention. There is no point in making a thread if you are quitting, there is no point in continuing to play the game for that long if you are planning to quit regardless of what the company does for the game. No one is forcing you to play the game, go and play a game you enjoy instead of forcing yourself to play a game you don't like. Stop wasting everyone's time in your desperate attempt at attention

Restaki1 votes

I'm playing until season 7 because i find the game still fun and somewhat enjoyable. Even though i know that it'll be never what it used to be. And yes i'm quitting forever and not coming back because LoL can't recover from this shit.

Adding RNG doesn't make the game any less about skill. If you read any of the dev blogs about it you would be able to follow their reasoning a little better.

Changes like plants allow a different kind of skill to flourish; the skill of being able to adapt and think on your feet. It also makes you think about probabilities and possible outcomes for a given match. Any good poker player will tell you that just because a game has RNG doesn't make the game 100% luck.

Until you stop making hyperbolic claims, no one is going to take you seriously. Either you are a) tilted and trying to make a point or b) very ignorant about RNG and how it affects skill-based games. Either way, Riot isn't going to listen until you fix your stuff and discuss it in an educated manner.

Riot DOES revert changes sometimes, but you have to make a good argument. Stamping your feet and leaving makes them happy, because it shows them that they are weeding out immature, less serious players. They want that.
