The new akali and my reason for ending this slow decent into a pos game.

WTF is wrong with you riot? At this point i am done participating with this game in any fashion, i love to play it. I watch every match and support the esports scene but the changes this season are beyond unacceptable to a player base. ADC's are almost completely useless to play, you have all but destroyed the careers of people who dedicated their lives to pushing your game out into the world. we now have a champ in game that can ignore turrets, or targeted ultimates all together. I watched her shroud drift on top of her after the Malz ult targeted her and it just dropped off...this game is being ruined for the sake of change. I have been a player since season 2, and a ranked player since season 3. I have spent well over 500-1000 through the years buying rp, collecting all my runes, buying all my rune pages, buying skins for champions i legitimately enjoy and now you have gone and taken a game i love to make it into something completely different. Games snowball so quickly that once someone is ahead..its over. I am posting here out of sheer frustration at watching a game i spent years enjoying and evolving with to just say i am done. This game is trash at this point. Its a constant play on "oh, have to ban new champion for over a month if every game because the kit is either completely broken and unplayable against, or they just do ass loads of damage to get peoples interest" as a player how do you play against a champion who is untargetable under your own turret and can kill you during the process...you can be zoned entirely if you make one mistake, or if your team mates make a mistake and give her any form of damage. You have been losing players for over a year now due to these changes. you would think you would re think them rather than double down on game changing alterations. i will attempt you remember you in your glory. Not remember when you broke champions like quinn because even after 8 years you cant seem to balance things properly or understand the impact you have when you make these changes. I do believe a nerf to akali is coming, but at this point changes like this are just to late. Every champion has a dash. Except for the ones you havent remade yet...wtf is that?

If anyone has any suggestions for a new game to play, does not have to be a moba let me know. My current item is the new expansion for WoW, i left that game as well for some of the same reasons, but i do check back from time to time to see if they corrected it. I will check this one out and see if i can't enjoy it again. Until then, ill play Civ 6 or whatever peaks my interest at the time until i can find another game to dive into fully.

I disagree with your opinion that League is a pos game but I'll suggest some games none-the-less.

If you like WoW, but are looking for another polished MMORPG I would recommend FFXIV, though only if you enjoy PvE more than PvP (the PvP in FFXIV is lackluster). After playing WoW through it's many expansions up to and including WoD, I found FFXIV story-line much more involved and entertaining, paired with the difficulty and the idea that you'll only need to create a single character to play every class I found it much better than WoW for my tastes.

End-game content with WoW constantly phased out as new expansions were released. I felt like I was missing 50% of an expansion if I wasn't there for most of it (I skipped the panda expansion). But FFXIV keeps old content relevant by adding almost everything to roulettes and having the player play through the storyline, no matter what. You need to play through the storyline to unlock dungeons and raids as they become relevant to your character in the story.

The game also demanded more of the player as far as difficulty was concerned. As you progress, it will keep on adding more things to remember and learn from. At the end, almost everyone is at least competent and knows what they are doing.

If you like Civ games, I recommend Endless Legend.

A lesser known 4X game that really shines in how unique they make each of the civilizations to choose from. I found the differences between the Civ empires (In Civilization games) in far too boring and bland, with almost no difference between them.

Endless Legend has a civ that cannot ever go to peace with anyone (on the count that they are pretty much the Zerg). They have a civ that can't build any more cities after their first one and relies heavily on a special convert mechanic that they can apply to neutral factions so that they can build up armies. A civ that can't research, and must either buy research with money or steal it from other people. It makes for a unique experience depending on what civ you choose and tactics that would apply to one civ become impossible with another.
