League of legends has become a half game.
Hello,
I am here to talk about a new feature from the preseason : The drake system.
This really original and wonderful system makes games shorter and allow less comeback possibility which is way better for e-sport. It avoids bad teams to come back just because they won a teamfight that leads to the end of the game upon an accident from the enemy. (S3 players know what I mean :D)
Having drakes suggests a farther advantage to the team that is ALREADY ahead in golds. Shut down system is a bit strange. Everything is done so comabacks are not common. I can know how a game will end at 15 minuts.
Win-Loss as a lonely purpose might be better in a competitive regard, but it ruins the game aspect of league of legends. As a reminder, a game is meant to give you fun time. Where is the entertainment when you know you are condemned ? Plus I'd like to point something else, watch the build your champions have at the end of a game, if you have three items, it's already a long game (25 minuts). If it's a short game, maybe you'll have one or two items. Some people say that 40 minuts for an average game as it had been before was too long, and I am not opposed to make the game faster. But there is a difference between faster and shorter.
Shorter : The game ends because the opportunity you've got to resist are not enough, so a nexus dies. Faster : You build your champion and take levels more easily so the games spend faster and end earlier as well.
So here are my complaints :
• Games are too short, and champions are always half built. • Snowballing is way too strong. Instead of giving 1K golds shut downs maybe limit the golds players ahead can harvest. Ex : An ahri has 2000 golds ahead from the enemy team average, so her gold harvest reduces, until the gap reduces as well. • suppress the green ward destruction, make green wards from the support untargetable. Because we all know the story, you were support, you warded objectives and all will be destroyed in a wink. • Allow players to see how many golds a player has harvested on the Tab menu. • Don't make the first drake appear at 5 minuts it's too early.
