A point people are missing when they say theres too much dmg in the game now

the problem is more that there are 5 roles now that actually do carry dmg rather than 3 or 2 if top is a tank, which is why tanky mages and bruisers are the strongest roles right now, they can survive the burst and still deal high dmg, riot decided that for people to have fun there should be no team roles and everyone should be a carry, because in football we have 11 strikers and no defenders, just the way team games are meant to be played

Here's how much dmg a 3/0 jungler did during season 4, we're talking about the season of the legendary junglers, kakao hard carrying KT, dandy and spirit on the samsung teams, shook's legendary lee sin game against najin to help ALL perfect game a korean team at worlds

all of this during season 4 when it took 2 full rotations of the strongest jungler at the time (lee sin) to be able to 1v1 a laner that face checks into you, nowadays nocturn presses R and can literally 100-0 you in 0.2seconds

how can anyone lane and trade when being less than 90% hp means you are in threat of being 1 shot by pretty much any jungler atm

i dont know at which point riot decided that every role should have carry damage but the game can never be as fun or balanced again as long as jungle and support scaling is not addressed

No, the player base demanded that every class should have strong late game power and the ability to hard carry, and Riot gave in.

Then when they actually tried to change that back to where certain classes are strong early game but have less use as the game goes on (and other classes becoming the strongest late game), people got upset and demanded Riot remove team play and cooperation through composition in a team based cooperative game.

Ah yes, just like the medieval wars, where armour didn't exist and everyone has lasers. I have a riot employee as my history teacher.
