A bit of positivity to balance out the negativity
So in order to attempt to balance out all the hatred, circle jerking, and general unpleasentness of the gameplay boards, I will create a list of positive things Riot has been doing in terms of gameplay.
-
Warwick Rework. This thing was beautiful, you made Warwick into a terrifying ganker with the ability to really shut things down. This rework was amazing, and I love these changes.
-
Lethality when it's not broken. It gave assassin's some much needed ability to deal some actual damage to tanks in the late game. Nothing more.
-
Plants. I'll admit I was sceptical about these guys at first, but I was pleasantly surprised about how much they added and how helpful they were. Blast cones are really nice for invading, honey fruit give mana hungry laners a way to get mana back so they can stay in the lane for longer, and scryers bloom gives extra ward clearing and vision, which is always nice to have. That silver player really knew what he was doing.
-
Drake changes. Gave some much needed variety to the drakes and made each drake an important one to take.
