Can we go back to the times when skill was relevant after a certain point, and not just which team has the best early game composition/more counterpicks?
9/10 games ending in the lobby is pretty retarded.
Khristophoros2 votesThis is how the game has always been. Can you present any convincing reasons why it's worse than usual right now?

Counter-picks matter most in the early game, and less in the mid-late game.
Games snowball too much + end too early this season. It makes it much worse than it was in previous seasons; even if you're counter picked, you could still hold on until later in the game and try to make a play or catch up. Right now, you just lose, because 9/10 games are 'over' by 15 minutes.
See teams with superior early game 5-manning bottom turret at 7 minutes and snowballing to victory as an example.

I think that he is complaining that the meta has brought counterpicks that are more important than skills.

That makes sense too
ReySolomon1 votesI do feel like it's about ''Get fed!'' instead of ''I have skill to win this for us!'' but maybe season 8 will be about skilled?
rukahs1 votesall champions should be equal? [sg-zephyr]
Sujiren1 votesThere are plenty of champions that have close to no counters. For example Urgot in the top lane can lane vs pretty much anyone, even vs abominations like Teemo or Heimerdinger.
