Season of Mistakes?

Thinking about the problems about this season the one thing I keep coming back to is how much more punishing this game has become. Every game I won or lost felt like a complete stomp with no true sense of comeback. Games seem to be one more with champions and teamcomps rather than skill or itemization. Winning teams never really make it to late game, most of the time they have 3 inhibs down and baron pre 30 mins and the losing team barely has 2 items.

Riot really needs to strike a balance between shortening games and allowing comebacks to happen. i think they need to rework minions, they are currently to overpowered this season. I'd actually like to see a revert back to s4 minions where they didn't have all these annoying scaling mechanincs and armor shred on turrets. This is the main reason we see so many siege comps and only heavy waveclear champs are in the meta. It's really crazy that there's a huge strategic ponus on a passive thing. Towers almost have to hit caster minions 3 times to even kill them in 20 mins.
