I simply no longer find league any fun.

Ahem

I have seen seasons pass, champions rise and fall; yet still this season is my least favorite of all. Support is my main yet I can play there no longer as damage creep rises and supports grow stronger. I did not main this role as a second mid lane, seeing Brand 1v1 Cait nearly drives me insane. So until the game is fixed, I think I am done. I simply no longer find league any fun.

Where once a safe-haven, even bruisers now dive, your towers cannot hope to keep you alive. Yet so is their value, but not in map control; first tower can nearly decide a game whole. Jungle picks a lane and forces a fight dead in moments, even under tower's might. I watch under tower as my ADC is burst, praying at least that our top kills theirs first. Try as I might, my only option is run. I simply no longer find league any fun.

Speaking of which, let us talk about damage; Maokai dueling Trist I simply cannot manage. ADCs heal too much, seasons ago people cried, you could not fight through Bloodthirster if you tried. Champs like Jinx now pray to attack even once as even tanks devour her for a light brunch. Remember when you could kill things with a gun? I simply no longer find league any fun.

I believe the game's pace is too fast, games end before 20 and teamfights do not last. Varus and Ziggs in the bot lane, this'll be a blast. Carrying as ADC? Their time is now past. Now play an assassin jungle, or a midlaner too, there is simply nothing more for ADC to do. Everyone deals damage in bursts by the ton. I simply no longer find league any fun.

Thunderlord strikes down, deathfire burns from afar Windspeakers shields larger than the HP bar. Additional power for all but a few, those left behind are left nothing to do. Masteries are too strong, every single one. A shield every few seconds Leo uses her stun, or presses her ult and praises the sun! I simply no longer find league any fun.

This is not goodbye, I will still be around, In ARAM is mostly where I will be found. I still love league, though no longer the same, It is no longer my favorite multiplayer game. I hope one day Riot will remedy this, but until then it will be something I miss. I have decided, though it weighs on me a ton: I simply no longer find league any fun.

Shouldn't "supports" be in quotes?

Take my upvote. You went to too much effort to make this magical work of art for it not to be front page

Kindred has come at the right time, To take away a game that was once mine,

To take away a game I used to play, Instead of sleeping with a summer bae.

Tfw you realize this QQ thread is actually poetry. Also, nothing wrong with QQing. I feel relatively the same.

Wow this poem was good as hell, though? Like, I agree and everything, but really the poem was the best part.

This was really well done, but the point of this post is so stupid. Fuck it, take the damned upvote.

This does suck for supports now. Jungle is a mess too. I have slowly playing less and less. I did stop spending money on this game.

Well written even though I disagree with your opinion on the current state of ADC's. I think once people come to terms with the fact ADC's can no longer sit there mindlessly auto-attacking everything and getting a penta, they will realize their true value. Btw try fighting Draven or Kalista, its kind of disgusting. Draven gets 2 lifesteal items and he is damn near immortal unless you 5v1 him. Kalista... god damn I thought the game was bad before, but now that she is being played again I am reminded how terrible it can get. BotrK + Frozen Mallet is freakin ridiculous, you jump on her deal a ton of damage and she just dances away healing for 50% of her Hp per AA while you can do nothing about it because haha she gets to abuse Bruiser items again.

Edit: no I am not using 2 ADC's to say all ADC's are good, they are just examples. The issue with ADC's is that games are not long enough for them to reach 3 shot kill everything status anymore. They are still strong, they are still useful, they just aren't what they were in the past few seasons anymore.

I approve of your attempt, but I'm sad that some of your timing in your rhyme is off. Good job still.

Is this supposed to be sung to the tune of something? I can't seem to figure it out.

Good poem. But get out of my face if you are going to quit adc just because of a season.
