5.16 has made the game a lot less fun

patch 5.16 has made this game no fun and seems to completely destroyed balance.

Devourer junglers run rampant. Yi, Shyvana, Xin, Warwick all abuse it.

Towers have lost their place as dive protection. Tanks and juggernauts dive towers with reckless abandon because tower damage cant keep up. Malphite, Zac, Alister, Mundo, Volibear and Warwick all start diving early into towers. And split pushing seems to have become even easier with all the juggernauts

Juggernauts now do enough damage to replace carries in key roles. Garen and Skarner have two of the highest win rates currently. and Mordekaiser makes teams even more disgustingly tanky by replacing adc. Mordekaiser's move into bot lane seems to have open it up for any juggernaut/tank bully bot lane which traditional lane comps just cant seem to keep up with.

hyper mobile fighters/assassins are back with a vengeance turning the game back into a mobility arms race. Yasuo, Riven, Lee Sin, and Wukong are now so regularly played that at least one appears in every game.

Everything being played has a ridiculously early power spike. something most players just dont seem to be equipped to play against and even if they are a single mistake is all it takes to get something snowballing early game. And if you do manage not to feed to an early game power house any weak player or squishy on your team is still going to get viciously exploited for kills.

Every game is quickly boiling down to the same few champions being played and doing everything. Namely Shyvana, Garen, Skarner, Mordekaiser, Riven, Yasuo, Yi, and Lee Sin.

Meanwhile playing immobile carries is becoming increasingly less tenable. Most Apc mages and Adc get run down easily and cant trade with the new damage dealing juggernauts. Brand, Malzahar, and Donger being the only immobile squishies that can still compete.

Now I'm not a pro or high ranked player and I'm not saying I know what is best for the balance. Just that since the being of this patch games have become more prone to snowballing, are ending faster, have less champion diversity, and offer little time to breath between pushes by overly tanky teams. I have no problem with juggernauts and fighters but when any group of champions being to dominate the game then something is wrong.

As the game stands it just doesn't seem like that much fun anymore.
