Wtf is Riot Doing

I've just uninstalled League of Legends. This game is not fun anymore. No longer is it about skill, or outplaying the enemy. It's about who picks the champions that Riot balance decides to make busted this patch. I'm sorry, if I seem like some whiny kid, but take this example. 4 members of my team were clearing waves in base, including me. and the ADC runs into the dragon pit to contest it by herself. She dies, and they get the dragon. Off of this alone, the enemy team is able to push into our base, and we can't clear the waves. They force a fight, we lose, and that's how we lost the game. How is that fair? The fight wasn't even close at all, none of them died, none of them were even in danger of dying, because they had everyone on their team, while we lost 1 person, one person who made one mistake. Just because of the role that they were playing, we weren't able to defend them from the inhib tower for 30 seconds. I didn't make the mistake, the rest of my team didn't make the mistake, 1 person made the mistake, which lost us all the game. I understand it's a team game, but what about the rest of my team? The rest of my team couldn't do everything because the meta revolves around 1 role. Team comps are based on who can kill the ADC the fastest, or who can CC the ADC, or who can survive the ADC the longest so that their team can get to them. This game isn't about individual skill at all, or even working as a team. It's about luck; who gets the best champs, and who gets the best team mates. When Riot balances their game to cater towards .05% of the total player base, what kind of game is that? Buffs and nerfs should be for the betterment of the game at all levels, and having a game based as much on luck as League is isn't the kind of game I want to spend my time playing. I wanted to get better, I tried to get better, I did get better, but it doesn't matter, because Riot refuses to listen to the part of the player base that actually matters: the other 99.5% of players that aren't in challenger or the LCS. Get your shit together, Riot, or eventually everyone is going to feel the same.

yeah, they kinda started to accept what the meta is. They are more keen on making sure the established meta stays the same for a certain time before they start addressing it.

A few seasons ago, they would try to buff or nerf whatever is in meta...While they still do it, they aren't so trigger friendly.

the game is a fucking shit show of what it used to be. infinitely mana, tank problem since years, ap items overpowerd, every 2. champ has minor bugs in his kit which cant work well with older / newer champs sertain abilities. (fizz "e" still bugged since hes released, example: zed ult (sky is the limit?), kayne ult,.. etc

hitboxes and spell indicators are a joke, even freakin pubg did better.

i stopped playing last season (active) peak was gold 1 99 lp+-, its not even high but i cant stand the games anymore,.. ragequit, afk, flame, feeding.. could be the low elo, but thats the main playerbase. :D this community + the technical problems with the game is just aids.. rip game with fun -> hello desperate try to keep the game alive..

i mean, the last updates / new champs.. honestly, no words. it was a fun time 2-3 years ago. rito should focus on the "real" gamers, not the 100 pro players who meet up 2-3 times a year to figure out whats op lol
