I've become disenchanted with the game
Hey boards, hope you're having a good day.
So I haven't been a SUPER long player (only started in season 3), but I've had loads of fun with League. The adc Bard antics, the Zyra "support" carries, the assassin build Vi demolition derbies... even the all teleport/smite team comps. Of course, I've also had fun playing more meta champs/positions, but it's been most fun just dinking around and playing what my friends and I wanted (while still trying to win though).
Which brings me to the point. League has ceased to be fun to me. I'm used to trolls and negative people (there's at least one every game on my own or the enemy's team) but this past month I feel there have been either A. More trolls than before, or B. The trolls have been more severe. And by trolls I mean just flat out offensive jerks, or people who steal/lock in their champs/roles and disregarding team communication, or feeders, or afks, or opponents spamming "ggez" after winning... Yeah. I've never had a string this bad before.
On top of it all, I feel like queuing for my position in Dynamic Queue is a roll of the die. I only wanted to play bot with my brother, and so he queued as bot/support, while I queued as support/fill (figuring that fill basically means support these days). I got put as jungle, my worst role. F me for thinking I could queue for the role I wanted lol. I tried every combination I could think of, and I just couldn't get support. And the one time that I did, I got a person on my team that took support position from me. Who the crap fights over the support role lol?
Idk... Maybe I just need to take a break then come back in a few weeks or so... but I'm finding less reasons to come back and more reasons to do something else every day. I'm tired of getting yelled at because the adc decided to 1v5 the entire team, then says "gg team sucks". I'm tired of having to ban every currently op champ while letting all my counterpicks through to slay my butt. I miss Teambuilder, where I could play whatever role/champ I wanted GUARANTEED, and everyone would be on the same page. I almost NEVER experienced the kind of toxicity in Teambuilder that I do now.
It's been a good run League. See you in a few weeks Riot... Or months... Or never. I don't even know.
TLDR; I miss Teambuilder, I used to like Dynamic Queue but now really hate it, I'm tired of the champion balance, and League is less fun than ever. Can't wait for Overwatch.
