I feel like P/B is legit the most important part of any game nowadays

I disagree. I think that the game is in a fairly balanced place. There will always be favourable match ups, but I think you can play anything right now and find relative success.

P/B is important, but not the end of the game.

Sad but true. I can guess the outcome of the game with more than 90% accuracy just based on picks. Tank jungler like rammus? Instalost unless they also have a tank jungler like scarner/gragas/udyr. Mage mid vs Zed or another assassin or any AD fighter? Instalost unless miracle happens. Lux mid? Instalost that champ is just garbage. Pyke support? Well nothing is lost yet but he is going to be really fed...

The pattern in most games is this:

  1. Jungler with stronger earlygame wins one, two or all lanes.
  2. Mid or top loses hard, resulting in lost of tower. (Suprisingly tower advantage in botlane is not that influencial)
  3. The moment top or mid loses tower enemy jungler takes herald (solo or with the sololaner who took that tower).
  4. Enemy jungler + enemy sololaner group at mid/top as 3v1 and release herald.
  5. They get 1 tower for free, if they are smart and they have wards in your jungle or they spotted your jungler on opposite side, they take two, three sometimes even inhib, depends how much is the laner behind and what kind of picks they have.
  6. They group force 5vs5 they win and they take inhib.
  7. Now they have free baron it is just matter of time when they take it while you have to deal with supers and enemy wards in you jungle.
  8. If they aren't stupid they take that baron and end the game.
  9. GG.
