I miss the simpler days

Ps : I am not saying that past seasons were perfect When Dragon was not apocalypse to lose and was worth gold , when top lane wasn´t as snowbally as it is today , that tanks would only tank and not kill everybody and you had to build damage items if you wanted it , that there wasn´t a lane swap in EVERY FUCKING LCS GAME , when I could buy mana pots or green wards , that my trinket would have pink wards , when Zed couldn´t double ulti me (item 3147 <<<<<<Fuck this shit ) , when Percent Health and/or True Damage wasn´t given to champions like it was candy , when a rework did not mean the coming of a apocalyptic horsemen or the death of a champion (Cough cough Malzahar Cough cough Cassiopeia ) , where you had a mastery page that was was normal and you had a part that was damage related, one utility related and one tank related , that kit were simpler (Passive was unique , Q did damage, W utility or self buff, E dash or damage , R damage for damage dealers and utility for tanks or utility mages ) and we had a tribunal. Sure , we had our problem champions (Who could forget the horrors of release Zyra and )XinZhao still gives me nightmares, although he never got close to what he used to) but those were about one or two per patch , and usually quickly solved. As far as this last problem goes, I understand that now we have more champions and that it can be harder to balance, but then give us more bans, so we can deal with everything. Also , sure, we had more then our fair share of bullshit items , but now, every single patch , we have a major nerf to a item and they still are BS. Riot, I have been playing your game since Poppy´s release and I have 0 intention on stopping my addiction, however I can only guaranty myself and you are losing a LOT of players due to your lack of communication with your community. Hell , depending on how popular this post gets , I am certain that at least one Rioter will look at the post, but will not comment or say what she/he thinks about the problems that I talked about. And if a Rioter does comment, it will probably be off of someone making a joke and the Rioter add to the joke or something.

While I dont necessarily support all of your points I do miss the simpler times of league. It just seems like they keep piling more garbage in the game and not fixing longstanding problems. It seems like the game is going in a direction of overrefined facist-like game (if that makes any $^*@!#% sense) over the fun gaming experience it used to be with a cast of quirky and unique champions. Too many champs seem recycled and their abilities have to fit a "purpose" or niche rather than being a cool champ with unique abilities. Just my 2 cents.

uh pretty sure being tank and doing huge damage has always been a thing. Have you forgotten Lizard-Hydra-Full Tank Kha'Zix? Or Ghostblade-Full Tank Rengar still being a damage threat?

The difference was that you could play around them with positioning and even if they were able to kill you, you could still contest objectives since they just got some gold, no big deal, and it took big mistakes to lose towers.

Right now, objectives snowball into each other and make the next objective easier.

As I said, not all was roses, however, those problems never got to the level that we have now, with Tank Ekko for instance who can have 0 damage item and yet still tops the damage chart. Plus, back then you could ban those champions without letting someone just as bad get through the ban fase. For intance , if you remember season 4 , Kha´zix ran loose , but I would never see him in MY games , since I would allways ban him without letting op pick remain open
