honest to god I am tired of doing super well in lane only for one of my team to feed a yas or a yi and they just become unstoppable .... snowballing is only fun for the one doing it and oppressive and toxic to everyone else.... there needs to be a way to catch back up and not be slaughtered why should the whole team lose because ONE person gets fed enough to carry on the other team it makes the whole TEAM game thing feel moot
You know what's also not fun? Having an advantage that means nothing.
Snowball meta is fun. The enemies premade group collapses on your Red buff at level3, you either concede your entire top side jungle, get permanently put 2 levels behind, and lose the game. Or you fight them off, die, and still lose the game all the same. Good luck y'all. Que with people you can depend on, is the best advice anyone can give for this game.
i lost my top side jungle because the enemy team collapsed on it, while my laners(in position to help) do nothing. Im now 2 levels behind, and eventually 4 levels behind because better laners win jungle. Jungle2020.

Kill the fed guy, get 1k gold shutdown, that is your way to catch up.
The damage meta is the problem. Levels mean way too much. It's all the % damage in the game that makes it snowball so hard. Granted I do not enjoy 50min games, but making objectives weaker - not champions stronger vs. other champions - would shorten the games too without snowballing games. it would become more strategic and less a mindless clicker.
Love this snowball meta, game would be so boring without it really I know from Dota 2 [slayer-jinx-wink] It is also making comebacks feels better when you able to stop snowballing team.
Snowball meta is awesome.
Having players inting non-stop as 'teammates' is not fine.
You want the snowball meta so you can solo carry. You want the teammates with brains so that you actually can carry when you're ahead.
I caution that your issue is actually matchmaking giving you shit teammates, not the snowball. I think everyone wants to be able to snowball off of earned advantages. No one wants to play with brain dead, dead weight, fucking not-even-trying-obviously, 'teammates'.
Riot don't give a fuck.
