I just realized...

... that getting countered is just more fun.

Victory after countering your enemy feels hollow, shallow... just the expected, nothing worth remembering; and defeat is just terrible.

When getting countered though... losing isn't as bad, it is nothing unexpected, while victory is just the sweetest.

Is there anyone here who feels the same?

Welcome to the fun side of League.

One of my favorite matchups to date: Leblanc vs AP Ezreal

Ezreal's E requires some time to use, so you have to anticipate when LeBlanc will try and all in you. If you guess right, you'll cause them to mess up their combo , surviving and getting damage on them. Conversely, LeBlanc can use her dashes to dodge Ezreal's skillshot heavy combo. It all comes down to who out-wits who.

While this is true to an extent, getting hard countered (ie a ranged top vs a melee top) just kinda ruins league for a while after the game ends.

there are no counters. Only who is the better player. You can win any lane

Nope, as long as the player have more or less the same skills, champion match-up is what decides a lane, you can get help, but if you and your friend go in a custom 1 vs 1 and you're both evenly skilled, the champion match-up will decide the winner. And in a 5 vs 5 if the enemy team manages to pick 5 champ that hard-counter your team's 5 champs, as long as the skill are even, your team will lose, this obviously takes into account that the skills with those champ must be equal. That said, a situation like this is so improbable that we can actually say you are right, but remember if we talk about math, counters do exist and they do win games if you input the data in a computer.

This is a much more fun mentality than "FUCKING JUNGLER NEVER FUCKING GANKS MY FUCKING LANE GOD THIS FUCKING TRASH JUNGLE SUCKS (is currently pushing lane all the way to enemy tower)".
