What changes would you make to league right now?

Nothing simple like "nerf Fizz". Think bigger, League as a whole. Not just a tiny portion. Also try to give a small explanation afterwards

Here's mine:

  • 15% damage reduction on champions ONLY. Make early game scarier. Minions, turrets, and monsters(Jg items can get a new passive to adjust for this) will all be stronger. Just in general i feel like burst is crazy high right now, and this would be an interesting fix. (Pen Items would get small buffs to avoid a tank meta)

  • Give all turrets fortification, expiring at different times, the lowest being 5 minutes, make them worth more team gold. Make the game a little less snowbally, but keep the first turret gold to make it an important objective.

  • Buff Rift Herald I would love to see the meta shift towards top lane, i feel like it would completely refresh how League is played. So indirectly buff it by buffing Rift. This would make Rift a priority as it would be much harder to take turrets without a siege.

  • Make turrets do scaling % current health damage to champion, true damage when no minions are nearby. Stop the ridiculous 4 man turret dives. Make it actually require some better minion setup, coordination, and rotations. Give it some skill expression.

Obviously the numbers would need some tuning, but overall it would even the game out. Make it less snowbally, and more team focused. Remove a lot of the obnoxious burst, and give scaling champions a better chance other than being feast or famine. Opinions? And post your change(s) below

Personally I think adding more game modes other than Rift and ARAM (let's be honest, nobody plays Treeline) would be great, especially a straight Deathmatch type mode. The game as a whole feels somewhat stagnant right now and the rotating game mode really isn't doing it for me. Especially since URF isn't on it at all.

  • Make turrets great again. They feel weak and ineffectual. From a major objective to winning lane, to a minor annoyance. Even if they did something like confer benefits on champions standing in their shadow that would make early game dives not the order of the day.

  • A permanent PvE mode that's actually challenging - even if its just customs. Even if its just the ability to set bot difficulty: Doom in a custom. Even if it's better bot AI. In other words, give people something to do other than choosing between "Possibly get abused for 30 minutes" and "Faceroll the bots"

  • Riot actually explaining what their vision for the game is - it seems to go hither and thither with each season with little rhyme or reason. What would an ideal League of Legends look like in their eyes?

  • Announcer packs! Great way to bring some extra cash in. People in the modding scene already do this, but imagine making that official. I'd definitely buy, say, a PROJECT or a Star Guardian voice pack for use in everyday games.

  • Actually showing MMR again

  • Banning the bots more rapidly - there are between 1 and 3 in every single vsAI game, and around 1 in every ARAM, without fail.

  • Death recap. Fix it, or remove it. Bad data is worse than no data.

Not bloody likely, but a personal silly wish:

  • A way to use the original Summoner's Rift graphics. Watching some pre-rework videos, it strikes me how much less colorful and vibrant the world is now than it used to be. The rift seems "muddy", for lack of a better term. Much more brown. Even DOTA seems more colorful (one side looks like the Silverpine Forest ala WoW, the other like Mordor) and they go for a realistic vibe.

Fire the entire rito team and throw their current system in the trash.

Rework BE to give shards per game not per level. Rework balancing on all champs by removing all scaling and start stats and giving them only stats based on items/runes.

Take true damage and crit completely out of the game as they are solely designed to unbalance it.

Rework tower damage to ALWAYS fire per % of life not flat damage as in hit 1(15%) hit 2(30%) hit 3(45%), so no more asshole tanking towers until they drop and towers will once again become meaningful places of protection at all times in the game not just in the first 10min.

Oh and the most meaningful change of them all, get rid of autoban bots, and remove chat restriction completely, in my version of this game people can say whatever the fuck they want to whoever the fuck they want, your options are to mute them or to argue back, in either case there will be no punishment for anyone.

Cut damage 15% across the board. 25-30% in certain circumstances Zed Zoe .

Ralanr12/5/2017, 3:55:55 PM2 votes

%health on towers imo is a bad idea as it nerfs tanks but encourages squishy divers more because they take less damage and can get out faster.

JIDF Operative12/5/2017, 4:55:18 PM2 votes

I would stop straight up nerfing champions who are overperforming in their off roles.

Hypothetical example: -Xerath is balanced at mid lane -Overtime he experiences some changes but still remains balanced when played mid. -the changes however caused him to become a pick ban jungler -He gets straight up nerfed -He is no longer good in the jungler but he now underperformes at mid

Something like this can be avoided if riot tweaks damage to monsters or interactions with monsters rather than damaging a champs main role

I just want something changed so this can't happen anymore.

Look at first blood tower time. Why is 4 minute tower even possible? I died once at 3 minutes and then the tower gets destroyed on my way back to lane. One death at level 2 shouldn't end laning phase. Because there was no tower and we had a 1k deficit at level 3 to the enemy ADC, we weren't able to farm in bottom lane anymore. I ended up being level 7 when my middle laner was level 13.

Make the player base think it's ok for ranged top laners to be viable. After a 18 months of maining ranged toplaners its really starting to get on my nerves all the hate they get regardless if they're broken or not ( and yes I know some of them are broken right now).[sg-shisa]

  • Get rid of RNG runes
  • Get rid of RNG Zoe
  • Nerf Runes
  • Nerf Twitch

= Profit.

I would play League again in a heartbeat if all of those issues were addressed. However, I'm sure Riot likes the random elements in-game with overpowered runes and unbalanced champions.

Lord of Math12/5/2017, 8:12:36 PM1 votes

Create a new rune tree, and balance the ones that we already have. Buff support and AP items. Reduce cost of item 3070 to 500 and stats to compensate for the lower price. Basically it will be a first tier item like item 1052. Reduce cost of amp tome to 400 flat. Reduce trinket duration and cooldown equally. Give sightstone some upgrades into AD and AP items. item 3191 + item 2049 = Seer's Armguard. item 3077 + item 2049 = Crystalline Hydra. Remove the cooldown on item 3070 stacking, now it stacks per spell based off of charges generated and the mana spent, one charge per second. Reduce cost of item 3089 to 3200. Make all basic attacks deal magic for AP champions.

If you say some fucked up shit, you get banned immediately. I don't want to see serious, life threatening diseases being thrown around in-game as insults, or someone suggesting that another human being end their life. I don't understand why a company would allow these acts to go unpunished. It's unbecoming for the game, the game's reputation, and should have never been allowed.

Reverting everything to season 3, including undoing reworks and deleting champions.

The Minion hunt12/6/2017, 1:35:26 AM1 votes

All starting items start with health excluding the mid item that I cant remember the name, a rune that gave armor and mr would be more useful early then more bonus health. Just my opinion.

CrackShack12/6/2017, 2:27:26 AM1 votes

Personally, I would just uninstall. May as well, considering this game is slowly going to die out now. The veterans have spoken, riot doesn't care and will only continue to milk as much money out of the community as they can.

FairyDoll12/6/2017, 2:30:22 AM1 votes

I wouldn't cut dmg across the board. The new runes are way too strong on snowball burst champs (mostly AD champs but champs like Kata also synergize too well with them) which is all I'm seeing in every. Single. Game.

Also ya, increase turret dmg. Being able to dive a turret and take tons of hits at low lvls is ridiculous.

Illâoi Evê Siôn12/5/2017, 3:49:34 PM1 votes

Give Towers another +300 Health. Increase the cost of the Zeal and Serrated Dirk upgrades by 100 gold. Nerf all items that add bonus damage/ratios down to Luden's Echo's level (Stattik Shiv, Duskblade of Draktharr, Hextech Gunblade).

Bonipherus12/6/2017, 6:24:15 AM1 votes

big changes I'd take:

-remove rng like crit -boots slot -inner, base, and nexus towers have and give shields along with having faster firing speeds (stronger shields and more attack speed the closer you get to the nexus) -trinket slot holds pinks too -less cdr on items -more actives and passives on items and less raw stats

  • grievous wounds applies in stacks (10% reduction per auto from item 3123 up to 40%) /complete rebalance of healing champs and grievous wounds -add magma chamber -ARAM has all champions unlocked -training mode has all champions unlocked -ascension, dark star, and poro king now permanent game modes

gigantic changes I'd really wanna test for funsies to see how things would go:

-mana universally acts as a scaling stat like with Ryze -ad/ap fused into a single stat: power -all champs have unsealed spellbook at the start of the game -secondary currency to spend on neat upgrades like black market brawlers or nexus siege equipment

Rework Rengar ? XD

I'd rework Ryze.

No but seriously, I'd nerf twitch
