Weren't kidding...

Well, I tried my best to be positive Here are my complaints about preseason from the few games I've played so far (responding to common threads)

-"Buff Towers Not weaken them" This one I can relate with. Towers are really squishy right now, and I don't think that's a good thing. Actually, if they did much more damage and were super tanky, that would make games last longer, which is a good thing. From my game, enemy volibear ganked bot, got 2 kills, and them preceeded to shred 3/4 of a full hp tower. I don't think that should be a thing, as after that the tower fell soon-after, resulting in losing team getting further behind due to lack of presence (lvls, drag, farm) Proposed FIx: Make towers REALLY tanky and do a lot of damage.

"Bring stealth Wards back" Yea, they probably should, vision is good. Proposed Fix: Bring back vision :D

"Games are so snowbally" I think this one tends to be true, pulling last game as an example, we got behind a few kills early, but instead of us being able to fight back, it was really hard due to minion pushing power and enemy having so much more xp/money. Proposed Solution: make towers very, very deadly and strong early, and add some mechanic to aid teams that are behind

Anything I missed? Post thoughts below.

The snowballing is actually caused by the tower and vision changes. Once a team gets an advantage, they can easily push down towers for more gold and map presence, and the enemy team can't turtle up with wards to stay safe, so they just keep getting caught out while trying to recover.

Minion snowballing actually isn't implemented yet. There was a bug at the last minute and its coming out next patch.

I think it was good there was a bug on it. Could you imagine it on Live right now?

ik, but champs turn towers to nothing with tower HP nerfs. Even without minions snowballing, the current minions do a lot of damage due to the towers having less armor/MR.

While I don't want them to make games too easy to come back from, they went overkill on it. League is even more luck right now than ever. If you got a moron top laner before, there was a chance you could carry them. But now, they get a couple kills and a tower and all of sudden you are playing against super minions because of a trollo top laner.

Vision is complete shit right now.

Towers were already weak and nerfed. This kind of ties in with point 1 where they went too all out in making games stomps.

Mana pot removal is dumb as fuck.

Why they fuck over mages?

Why did we balance the preseason around crits? I thought they were moving away from this, but now the game literally revolves around it.

This makes me sad. You're even NA, so English should be a language you know. "Weren't" is the contracted form of "were not", which is either second person singular past or plural past tense, or the subjunctive. Here, the post is referring to many people, who according to OP "Weren't kidding".

Do you even English, bro?

Yes it is. It's an abbreviation of "Were not"

If the title was abbreviated fully it would read "They were not kidding"

the jungle item upgrades cost way too much gold, ap and tank items to be less expensive, tank items need to actually work, Fix pathing, tone down adc's from snowballing too quickly they are too strong right now.

The minion snowball measures aren't up yet.

The minions aren't pushing this patch, so placebo death FTW.

wasnt talking about minions though. RN basic minions can still shred towers to bits due to the towers having 0 armor/MR. Champions burn up towers like paper this patch, that was what i was referring to.

I think the towers damage needs to be buffed towards champions and the targetting system needs to be revamped so as to replace the current inconsistent system.

No, Riot. Tank ekko is not an "alternate playstyle". It is cancer and needs to be nerfed.
