i'm done with this game. This crap is for the birds. Uninstalling good luck

I know this game is highly popular so I wanted to try it but I seriously don't get why so many people like this game.

Keep in mind I've won 13 of my last 17 games so it isn't like I don't know how to play and win. Took 20 or 30 games playing around with different items to buy but eventually figured it out. The reason I won so many is because I feel I know how to out strategize most of the other teams. They get into this one lane mindset often times late games which leaves serious holes in their defenses.

So what are my biggest quarrels and why I'm uninstalling?

1. Melee in this game all have the same range as ranged heroes.

I mean seriously what a joke. I'm being pulled and spears are thrown at me, daggers and teleported on so much it's absolute crap. Ranged heroes do NOT out range melee in this game. They both have the SAME range which has gotta be the dumbest thing I think I've ever seen in a game ever in the history of gaming.

Just one example is Pantheon who can block one attack and has a ranged throw.... well gee lets figure this one out.

I'm a ranged hero, I get in range of this melee hero Pantheon. We both throw out our ranged attacks simultaneously. My attack gets blocked, his attack hits. He retreats and rinse and repeat when cooldowns are off. WOW!

There's so many of these kinds of crap tactics from so many of the melee heroes I wonder why anyone plays ranged at all. Keep in mind I don't own Vayne which seems to be the most whined about ranged hero right now.

Another example is that I once qued up my blind on Wukong with Teemo and before my blind can even hit him he teleports in on me, no blind hits him, and sure enough he starts his stupid spin to win crap and I'm dead.

Yep 100% garbage balance in ranged vs melee in this game. If there were no other reasons I would uninstall just because of this terrible imbalance of melee heroes in this game.

I have a machine gun.

You have a staff.

Why do we have the same range?

2. Heroes die way too fast

There's almost no option for countering in this game. You can pick apart, or get picked apart, in a mere second or two giving no option for counter attack. This makes for horrid game play for me. I prefer a game where you can at least get a chance to counter an attack. Not get dashed on and 2-3 hits later ur staring at a grey screen.

This isn't very fun for me being on the receiving or giving end. I like to feel a sense of satisfaction in killing someone. Popping from stealth, hitting Q, and auto attacking 4 or 5 times times for a kill doesn't feel satisfying at all.

3. You don't have to kill the nexus to win

Simply taking down 2 inhibitors is 99.9999999% game over. Winions are way too strong if you ask me. This is where most games just get conceded. I don't really feel a sense of satisfaction of winning when all I did was take out a couple of inhibitors. Winions are so strong it's utterly stupid to even attempt to go for the nexus if you are in an evenly matched game. Just go for all the inhibitors and it's game over.

4. Many people I've played with are horrid

I don't think I've seen a bigger amount of whiners and complainers ever. I picked a hero they don't like, I'm getting reported? I'm laning a lane they don't like, I'm getting reported? I was eating after picking my hero and wasn't typing, I'm getting reported?

Good god. It's like gaming with a bunch of 10 year olds all day that whine and complain constantly. Of course not every team was like this but enough to bring it up.

5. Did I mention how stupidly OP melee are?

Ranged attack, bam 50% health gone. Teleport, stun, hit, dead. KMA Riot. I can the developers of this game got kited a lot in other games and wanted to just dash in on ranged heroes and pwn face. It's like they are taking out their rage of years of being kited on in other games in this game.

6. I don't feel a sense of satisfaction in winning

There's too much PvE content. The game feels like 80% PvE content... killing minions, killing monsters, killing turrets... and like 20% of the time you PvP. So people who run around and do some PvE get buffs and gold and get geared up and now they can PvP stronger than me? Blech.

I played a game called Bloodline Champions for years. That was the most pure and fun PvP game I may have ever played. 3on3, PvP, no PvE, no minions, no monsters, no turrets. Last team standing wins. Now THAT game was great fun, till it died.

Many of my wins came from the simple fact we could kill minions and turrets faster than the other team. I didn't feel a sense of satisfaction for winning at all.

So those are reasons for uninstall. Figured I'd leave the message here for anyone interested. Not looking for sympathy and none of these things will probably get fixed or changed either.

So good luck to those of you who do like this stuff but I wouldn't touch this game with a 10 foot pole the way it sits. I beta tested many many games over the years including Anarchy Online, Dark Ages of Camelot, World of Warcaft just to name a few.... and I can tell you if this is how the game was in beta and I were there I would have left a mouthful of the devs.
