Not even counting all the smurfs and level 30's running around making it unfun, the basic runes/masteries system it utterly ridiculous that high level players have inherent passive bonuses that make them stronger regardless of champ or skill. It is DELIBERATELY making in imbalanced that some other guy is way stronger from the get go. 100% of games, and I am not even exaggerating here are stomps and toxic, 100%. It's a total joke.

When I started in season 4 there was no meta pre-ranked and people were playing duo top and similar stuff. You won't find this anymore.

The new systems that removes lvls,masteries and runes and whatnot are aimed exact the inherent advantage problem.

As for smurfing....is there any way to tell? I mean, they can stomp 3 games, throw 1 or 2 extremely hard and then stomp 3 more and the system won't recognize it.

This was already proven by a pair or Koreans that did this and threw hundreds of games and smurf stomped the rest without being banned.

Automatic systems won't notice that kinda deal :(

Well at level 30 there is no balance to, many times I had to play against diamonds while im just silver scrub, one time had to play against master. So, no one cares

Why are you even complaining about this, riot has already confirmed that they are doing away with the runes system and that change is coming in 2 months. We known about this for a long time actually, complaining about it now servers no purpose other than to waste your time.

Not like literally the whole runes/masteries system will be changed in preseason or anything.

a lvl 30 account costs like 10USD and if you factor in how long you'd have to work at minimum wage to buy it... there really is no other way

maybe the new rune and leveling systems will change that and make it not AIDs

They removing the lvl system all togeather in the next pre season. runes and masteries will be combined into one an be free for everyone. also removing ip and making it just blue ess and making champions purchaseable with blue ess. so yea they fully aware of how horrible pre 30 games are.

yeah leveling up a new account was a great experience for me.

That's what the new system this preseason is going to fix. I believe everyone has all runes available from lvl 1 (for free). I'm not sure if they are removing lvl restrictions on summoner, spells, but I think they are too.

That won't fix all the smurfs running around, but it should help.

Ah that's encouraging that they are going to fix it in next pre season, its truly horrible at the moment

Pre-30 matches mostly just depend on who has the most smurfs. And yeah, I definitely agree with the mastery/rune thing but I believe they're gonna be changing that soon.

I think masteries should be fully unlocked at level 1. Runes will be reworked, so lets see how that goes. The most important thing is.... summoner spells. What good does it do to lock something like smite? or whatever it is, cant remember which ones require level.
