After 6 years playing this game, I think I'm done
There has not been a single thing done this season that I agree with, and it has pretty much zapped all fun and joy from the game. And it's not like these things are unknown. People have been complaining en masse about them since they were introduced, only to fall upon death ears.
-Death timers are an absolute joke. They have done nothing to solve games from being long. All it does is punish you. It isn't fun to be on the losing side of a stomp and losing because your all dead 25 minutes in and have to wait 50 seconds. On the other hand, it also isn't fun as a winning team to have everything early game advantage become meaningless because of one bad fight that allows the other team to just push from the tier 3, right to the nexus.
-Balance is an absolute joke. Long waits before patches were supposed to mean greater balance in this game. Yet all it does is allow blatantly OP champs dominate for months on end. It took multiple patches and months for champions like gangplank and fiora to get enough nerfs to put them back in line with the rest of the pack.
-Balance has been clearly put in favour of AD's and assassins and against mages. Don't believe me? Karthus, Brand, Malzahar, and swain all recieved nerfs the moment they even became strong. One patch and their all nerfed, never to be seen again. don't even need to go into detail about the BS that is zed getting away scott free multiple patches. Or corki invalidated the majority of the AP roster in mid lane.
Dynamic Que over solo que makes me want to puke. Simply put I don't have any motivation to play ranked with friends. Most of the playerbase is silver//bronze. I'm in platinum, so i can't play with them. I don't like being pitted against pre mades and being at an inherent disadvantage because they can communicate with eachother.
-6 years and still nothing done to fix issues of afk's, Ragquitters in ranked. Every other bloody moba in existance has some sort of system in place in case of a RQ or afk. In league that system is "go fuck yourself, have fun wasting 20 minutes of your life, enjoy the loss of LP, better hope next game the other team gets a rager to help balance it out".
All in all iv'e grown tired of this game. I used to love this game to death but I cannot agree with the direction it's going. It saddens me to see it come to this, but unless things change fast I think I will be done with League forever. Though on a final note, I will say this. Fuck lee sin. God damn he got the most random, undeserved, pointless buff. I know your biased towards him, but atleast be subtle about it. He's in every damn game.
