Damage these days is like URF, minus the fun

Riot says that they see a net loss of people after URF is put on servers. They say it's like playing with cheats. To be honest, I don't see a massive amount of difference between today's games and the first URF. There's altogether too much damage, and cooldowns are too low. If you're ahead, it can be kind of fun, but it's miserable to play from behind.

Having your health go from 100 to 0 in less than half a second isn't fun, and to be honest, I don't enjoy one-hitting people. It's kind of ironic to me that champions like Rengar and Diana (my two highest mastery champs) have attack speed in their kits, but can one-hit people so well. What's the point of attack speed and any sort of sustained damage when it seems like Riot is pushing towards killing people before they can react?

Concurrence, it is legit why I never started playing DOTA, My first few games of DOTA I watched players same level 1v1 kill in less than a second. The only reason I am playing LOL still is I have hope it will return to actual skill instead of who can land the first hit.

People say "tank meta" but what they really mean to say is "sustained damage meta".

People complained(very vocally on reddit) that their burst damage was inferior to sustained damage so what did riot do?

They straight up told everyone on reddit that their game design was burst > sustained and proceeded to up the burst to the fucking max.

This brought forth the "ADC 2k17" meme that ended up getting crit items buffed. Fun times indeed.

Yasuo Zoe Akali all suck in URF because they are URF in normal games.

Riots just slowing making everyone that.

Why not just make the normal game URF? Nerf the few champs that are flat our broken in URF and the game is perfect.

Damage was always this high, the game just went down in fun
