This game isn't as fun as it used to feel.

I really, really hate to say that but it's truly how I feel right now, right now the game is filled with unbalanced champions and toxic players.

Instead of "pick your favorite champion and head straight into the game" it's "PLAY A META, FOTM CHAMP OR AN EQUALLY OVERPOWERED CHAMP TO COUNTER THE CHAMP YOU'RE FACING AND DO GOOD OR LOSE AND BE REPORTED NUB"

And toxicity is still running rampant, sure you can say "oh just mute them lol", I understand that, but people shouldn't be having to mute players every 1 out of 2 games.

It's starting to feel more like a chore than something that you play to have fun.

As much as I may suck, this is why I love playing Bronze-level normals. Most of the people there are just there to screw around and have a good time. It also helps to play with a friend.

Don't ever go to Ranked though. "Un-" (as in ranked/unranked) is the difference between heaven and hell in Bronze.

As a jungler, who used to play the likes of Trundle, Rammus, WW, Xin, Rengar... I agree with you. You cant play your favorite champs anymore. So many of them are obsolete and clearly just not viable. Is Singed top going to do anything to a Gnar? A Kalista? A Jarvan? Is an ashe ever going to be on par with Kalista? Never in your life. Rammus has to burn a summoner's spell to even get close to LeBlanc, only to be laughed at and dashed away from.

It's funny you say that, because Ashe counters Kalista. Lol. Pick your battles. Every champion does well against some other champions. Maybe Rengar isn't consistent enough to bring into every match, but then again neither is Teemo. No one ever said Teemo was obsolete for having counters.

Wasn't meant to be a counter pick discussion. I'm talking about what two similar 'classes' of characters, how one set seems to have everything they need and more. Gnat does more cc, more damage, better laning etc. Kalista can kite an entire team with her dashes. Ashe can, potentially, but kalista has far more effective tools to do so.

Rengar was played in several high stakes matches, not just LCS but stuff higher than LCS, like, between different regions (search The Best LOL Match Ever, WE China vs. CLG Europe, starring names like Froggen on Lee Sin mid, Misaya on Orianna and Weixiao feeding enemy Kog hard as Ez, with Caomei on Rengar).

Now almost every single champ in that match is bad for the positions they were played in. Lee can't mid anymore, Kog and Ez suck, Rengar sucks, Chogath sucks, Zyra sucks, Sona sucks, Orianna and Rumble are good but slowly slipping, Its fucking sad how everything immobile got padding put on their kits while the mobile champs have god tier damage and sometimes are even tanky as fk.
