URF isn't bad this time around, it's the community
Sure, the crit buff and lethality, Zhoyna's etc. makes the mode innately toxic, but in actuality, it's the community.
This game's community used to appreciate having derpy fun and toxicity wasn't all too common outside of ranked. Nowadays, the community just picks meta every single game in EVERY single gamemode (including ARAM, utilising rerolls) and toxicity is at an all-time high.
To say that playing this game is frustrating is an understatement, as it well and truly feels like you're in a mental hospital as opposed to a video GAME. That's another thing, "game" used to translate to fun with competition thrown in, now it's competition with the possibility of fun. This is just fundamentally broken and makes it so that the only retention to games is the fact that you MIGHT get to a level where you can compete on a national or international level.
In my personal experience, every single game of URF has been a sweatfest, with little to no fun for both sides (plus toxicity in the mix), with only toxic 0 counterplay champions being picked. I'd love to pick some fun niche stuff, but there's an AP Malphite and some other bullshit in my games.
tl;dr URF is amazing, this game's community is garbage
UPDATE: Just had multiple teams rush push to end. Epic.
This little thing is the most broken item in the entire gamemode, if you have scalings for both, this is first buy and you run to the bank with it. The champions abusing it are extremely toxic to face, and in Jax's case is downright impossible to deal with. I want to see this item banned effective immediately and see how the meta shapes.
and a few others
, she's broken even in URF!
).
. Memes aside urf is insanely popular and ofc it'll attract lots of people included kids. Imo urf is a toxic mode all by itself that's why u see so many toxic people in it. The whole mode is about abusing shit anyway. Imo ascension and one for all are way better and more fun and less toxic I hope riot brings em back cuz I'm kinda tired of having urf every year for more that 2 or 3 times. OK we get it but give us sth different in between.
in URF because instead of my normal build with RoA and defensive items I go
and a random AP item and become an aoe burst assassin. But I can't do that with constant
.... didn’t really surprise me, I just wanted to play him once since he’s my favorite champ, but yeah. He’s more broken than a McDonalds Ice cream machine.
Poke bot. Was kinda boring tbh. At least with Galio I had a bit of fun.
he’s pretty fun with the full AP build, but he rides the edge of anti fun a bit too closely
see Lux
healing build and AP build
movespeed build, AP build
normal build, Full AP build, movement speed build. I expected Galio levels of broken-ness and was pleasantly surprised that he wasn’t too overbearing
this one surprised me tbh. I thought she’d be broken but she’s actually just slightly above average
literally just go full movespeed and kidnap people it’s pretty funny, but he himself isn’t OP.
I’ve tried full tank, full AP, and Full MS. Some of it worked but I somehow find SR Nunu way more fun than urf. It’s an anomaly.
by the time My Q finished winding up Id keep dying. And being Kited is 10000x more painful. But if you get ahead dear god he seems straight anti fun.
Surprised me. But his passive doesn’t scale with CD, his E and W are easy to dodge, and his Ult just doesn’t heal him fast enough in urf where everything’s on a 1.5 second CD.
had one guy curse me out for dying to shrooms repeatedly and another literally LAUGHING and challenging me to a 1v1 playfully. I think it just depends on how you think about Teemo.
