Ya im done till preseason is over
I never used to have nearly as many issues with Riots "balance" till this year. But after a full year of ignoring the major problems of league so that they can ruin the first half of worlds with ardent censor, as well as this preseason i just cant play anymore.
Its completely obvious to everyone that Riot put zero effort in balancing or even attempting to balance this patch. Just looking at the patch notes i knew hp scaling tanks would be an issue, adc's would get stronger, bruisers would lose even more match ups, and damage would be way higher then normal.
This is exactly what happened. If i saw it just from patch notes then how the hell did a full team at riot not see it? Shen deals 4x more damage then scaling top laners, and 2x more then early game power houses like renek, darius, panth. Mao does even more damage now and can out duel nearly everyone. Even if he loses early he will out duel and split push you with his ridiculous grasp and passive that got buffs with runes. Singed is near impossible to deal with. Trying to stay alive early verse the insane damage from assassins and divers is a chore. Cheese is becoming common place mid because it works too well. Junglers somehow managed to be even more impactful in games. You can no longer survive jungle ganks, so having a bad jungler is an instant loss.
This game used to be fun and skill full but every month it feels worse and worse to play. Why is it long time running games keep changing the game away from what people loved about it?
Anyway Here are some examples just from yesterday.
