New Champions Have Ruined This Game

Last LP2 Player·2/21/2020, 5:50:38 PM·1 votes·1,880 views

What happened to the simple yet interesting champion designs Riot would release over a long period of time??? I do not think in all of LOL history have I seen such saturation in skins and new overloaded champs.

What happened to the champion releases like ? A champion who is has a basic kit that requires skill to use. What happened to those days? Now we are getting 1 new champion every 3 month or so. Can you stop riot? Please. This game has devolved into whoever abuses the most overloaded kit. The only good reworks Riot has done are Every other rework has been a complete and utter failure. This is not a game anymore. It is a shit stain on the gaming community. I only play because I like one champion or maybe three. Most of them are champions who are team reliant like . Im tired of new champions that have little to no counterplay. The champions I main give a fair fight with either high cooldowns or clear weaknesses that are easy to exploit. Now I see people going new champions that are claiming they have weaknesses which they clearly dont. A vast majority of recent releases have been Riot tinkering and stripping shit out of kits just to make them less of an oppressive shit stain on the rift. Of course is still sorta new but at least he has complexity and interesting gameplay without being a cancer sore. Im pretty sure after Riot started shitting champions out by the bakers dozens. Maybe its just how omnipresent they are in lol now. I just checked and they always release in three months or so. They should slow down.

Are these not simple or interesting enough for you? Did Aphelios hurt you or something?

Shen rework was an awful failure and it only changed 2 abilities. He absolutely should have been reverted, he wasnt even given a VO or Visual update to go with it, he just got new skills tacked on with Jhin's release in a desperate attempt to hype up Jhin (and a Marvel comic)

new champion releases have slowed down tremendously, to the point that Kai'sa and Pyke were the only champions released that entire year (Neeko released in Pre-season, and Sylas at the end/start of the year, so I dont count them) They used to release a new champion every single month. If youre complaining about releases close together because of Aphelios/Senna being nearly back to back and Sett shortly after, blame Aphelios being heavily delayed. Rumors of a champion named Aphelios were circulating for months before Senna even hit PBE, to the point that when TD Senna's splash leaked, people were assuming "Oh this must be that Aphelios non-traditional marksman champion Riot hinted at". Furthermore, Riot did say something along the lines of "We have schedules around Champ releases, not deadlines; if a release isn't ready, it won't ship until it is." Being that Senna's release date was intentionally planned around Worlds and October (Shadow Isles theme), all signs point to Aphelios' original ship date was much earlier, more spaced out, than it eventually became due to the complexities and likely bugs involving his 5 Rs and various Q interactions.
