Stop Skillshot Reworking.

Rioters, please stop making point and click abilities into skillshots. Seriously, it's ruining the chances for more basic players to enjoy the game.

My friends actually gave up trying to learn the game after playing a few games because they found the items runes and skillshots confusing. ( One was playing Warwick, the other Darius. )

We all understand you want playmaker champions and less "Old Kayle" champions, but point and click abilities are slowly being removed and we all notice it.

Next thing we know, Tristana's E will become a skillshot buff like Ezreal's W.

Thank you for reading, I know it's not bringing too much stuff to support my reasoning, but please don't be toxic in the comments.

Again, thank you for listening, Mega.

I actually find WW more fun without the point and click ult.

Yes, because the ability to hit an enemy on a competitive platform with 0 ability for them to outplay you is healthy.

Imagine if someone went to the NFL and said "Stop letting people block the ball. The QB should be able to say who he wants the receiver to be and they should be given the ball no matter what."

Targeted cc is the natural counter to mobility. By removing more sure fire cc they just exacerbate the mobility issues in the game.

Skill shots offer counterplay, point and click offers unfair advantage based solely on matchup and feed level

it's really not fair to 4 players if the enemy top lane janna is somehow literally dark harvest 1shotting everyone with her targetted damage now is it, it might be more barable because janna carrying with harvest is funny, but they'll eventually buff that ability and also pen somewhere and she'll start doing it at some point in the future

Point and click imho is at its core toxic and counters skill expression.. even in auto attacks

you could argue orb walking is skill expression but the targetted aspect could be changed and require a system closer to diablo clone arpgs in which you hold the self cast button to target a location while not moving and then can orb from there, thus requiring prediction. Of course adcs could be buffed from there to compensate

He was an auto attack based life-stealing fighter. He is now a Q combo focused one.

And yes, Q comboing is now a category in itself. Yasuo Riven Camille Aatrox

because they found the items runes and skillshots confusing.

Items and runes I understand slightly (if I were you, I would have told them to just download blitz and copy the runes/items they recommend until they understand the game better) but how are skillshots in any way confusing?
