The real reason why I don't enjoy this game as I used to enjoy before:

The loss "strategic" pleasure, the feeling of outsmarting the opponent rather then outplaying them. Back in 2013~2014, I had fallen in love with League. The idea of playing a huge multiplayer chess game with 80++ different characters and some action in the middle was very exciting for me. I got completly addicted, not only for months, but for years.

But now, whenever I win, this satisfaction isn't nowhere near as it was back in the day, not only because of exhaustion, but mainly because of how the game focus drastically changed from strategy to action, to the point where champions move like fighting game characters and everything is about 'top playz'.

I miss the old LoL...

Yeah bro. Games like lol should have easy and straight forward mechanics with complicated strategy.

This game is supposed to be a technology chess match. Not a first person shooter.

Problem is riot's crusade against "stat check" champions without realizing that those champions provided more strategic depth than any of the new overloaded champions. If you look at the original champions under guinsoo, all of them were individually more simplistic than the new champions but the way they interacted in a 5v5 was more complex.

Holy, this describes perfectly Nasus and Tryndamere. Although they are annoying to deal with, their counterplay is more strategic than mechanic.
