Season 10 makes or breaks it.

It upsets me that this game has so much potential but it's ruined by its piss poor state.

The damage, mobility, and cdr creep. The infestation of reject mid-lane mages in the bot and top lane, with Swain recently making his way into the support role. The ten-second team fights. The 'get hit by one cc-nuke and get full health combined'. Lack of item diversity. Towers being so squishy late game.

Look, you may not agree with some of the points I've made above, but something like 'mobile league of legends' is not what this game needs for its long term health.

I'm with you in every single point you made.

I'm waiting for the 10 year anniversary so i can see what they planning for the preseason, If they are not fixing shit up I'm gonna call it quits.

Hope they fix it though.

Fed up with this game ever since Runes Reforged.

Heading out for good if season 10 continues this bullshit that has been going on for two years.

No skill expression, no team fights, just a braindead nuke fiesta.

It surely used to have. Then Season 8 came. And then Season 9. This company has already proved that they won't fix anything. They want that their own game keeps sinking into this sludge, for whatever reason.

... The ten-second team fights.

Ten? :D

It's more like Bullet Hell League that we currently have.

Used to be towers protected you; now you spend the whole game protecting your towers. Enemy just dives right under them.

I mean nothing will change as long as jungle still sucks and 10% WR players are being matched with 80+% WR players 2 tiers higher then them in a ranked game

Riot so far has acknowledged the poor state of jungle (it’s actually #1 autofilled role now) but nothing in regards to the terrible degradation of the matchmaking system.

I swear. Next step is riot is going to try turning league into a mobile game.

The baron buff is quite strong. Unless your team is brainlessly wandering around after baron kill, u will easily break inhibs. There is no way to clear baron minions for the current meta champions. The only champs capable of resisting a baron push is Azir,Sivir and maybe varus and syndra. But that said...late game barons should be powerful enough to end the game. So a bit nerf on the early game baron buff can certainly help the comeback mechanics.

Didn't they already stated that scuttle will get a 'rework' where it would generate an item, gold, buff or whatever which is going to break the game because only early junglers/laners would be played.

Hopefully in season 10 they bring back solo carrying, instead of the whole "Its a team game you need all 5 members to be able to win" meta. I dislike the current "burst the fed enemy instantly, then hope you dont die while cds are down" meta that just forces you to rely on teammates. I hate the super mobility cross map 1 shots like Camille and zoe etc meta. Hopefully they make laners and jgs require more skill and less of the game is decided by champion picks and positioning of teammates. I keep getting in games where people are 3/0 or 0/3 before the second minion wave spawns. Season 10 cant be worse than season 9. Rito, "Are you challenging me!" Crossing fingers [sg-soraka]

Eh, I'm gonna be real.

I've been with this game for about 7 of those 10 years.

And right about every year, we had a large section of the playbase crowing about how the game's about to die, how it's in the worst state it's ever been in, how Riot only cares about the LCMoney, and all that sort of stuff.

I'm not saying that there isn't a kernel of truth to the above claims, or that it's all hysterical nonsense, but I feel that the Boards have kind of become an echo chamber of negativity where people vastly overblow the problems that the game has.

well swain always functioned as a support since his rework now he functions as an adc replacement as well because he got wave clear

he is still only viable with a setup as his own setup is unreliable

also it makes or breaks it " FOR YOU " stop feeling so important that your opinion applies to the majority

you can play champions with many different builds and setups swain currently functions in 4 roles and has the following runes viable: conq, fleet, ele, dh, phase rush, grasp, aftershock, glacial

every rune setup changes the items you should prioritize

if thats not enough diversity i don't think you will ever be happy

Also the winning team wins more style.

You got soft countered? With the increased damage it will be hard counter soon enough.

You forced to recall to avoid getting killed? Too bad now he gets a bunch of gold from plates.

You lost midgame, and they got all the dragons? Yeah those buffs lasts FOREVER. Now even on full build they are at an advantage.

You think you can survive under turret? Flash news! You don't. At lvl3 you can be dived in 1v3, or 2v4. If mid wins, and can roam, then even under turret you aren't safe.

game and the lore/characters got so much potential... but yeah it seems people at the top are so disconnected from the game they have no clue what to do what people want.

Season 10 is here already. Looks like a wash.

See you guys over at DoTA2.

didnt we say that about s8 and 9 aswell?

The boards say this every season. Nothing changes just because we're on magical number 10. Lol.

This games a walking corpse. It's literally just waiting for another strong pvp game with good spectator value to come out, then everyone will jump ship.

Game quality decreased massively with the balancing issues and other such changes, simply because as you drop in playerbase it becomes harder to match games appropriately. And the problem just compounds itself. So once the death starts, the game will become unplayable.

The problem with the developers never growing out of being an indie company, and just having massive management issues that only ever made since when they were new.

No that was S8 Game cant return.

Well, that's what people said about S7, S8 and S9 aswell. You might not like the direction this game is going, and belive me neither do I, but there are enough people who apparently do or atleast don't care, especially in asia, so i fear they actually can continue on that horrible path they've chosen quit well...
