League of Legends in SLOOOW MOTIOOON
Does it bother anybody else that basically, in team fights or even skirmishes, everyone involved is always permanently slowed?

It's about all of them, and MORE! It's about the items, the champion abilities, everything. The whole game constantly feels like it is slow motion. This isn't a balance complaint, it's not a complaint about who killed me or what champions I play, this isn't about Yasuo in any way whatsoever. It's about the feeling of playing League as a whole. The game has steadily slowed down, until it is constantly crawling. Everyone now has a 30%-50% or even 99% slow in their kit. Every item has a damn slow tacked onto it. Red buff slows, chilling smite slows, mages permaslow, slowslowslowslowslow!
I remember when nobody liked playing against
even when she was weak, just because of permaslow, it was annoying. But Ashe doesn't even stand out anymore! That's right! It's amazing! Nobody says "Slows are too strong in this game, look at Ashe." the Queen of slows is not even the primary person named for it anymore. That is how bad the slow meta has gotten.
And unlike the tank meta, the ADC meta, the mage meta, the assassin meta. There is nothing fun about the slow meta. It's slow, it's boring.
I am just tired of every team fight, skirmish, chase, escape, etc, in the game, being like a herd of tortoises stampeding through peanut butter.
So this thread is not going to address any specific gameplay, champion or item. Other than the laughable fact that Ashe's slows aren't even special anymore. It is addressing the fact that there is so much slows in the game, so many much AoE slows, so much permaslowing. That the game has slowed to a crawl, and it feels terrible. Period.
