Can't play this week because...

Project yi.

Basically the game has gotten to the point where the free champ rotation determines whether I play league that week. Anything that incentives people to play BS champs in soloQ prevents me from playing that week. Yi, katarina, irelia, ahri(sometimes), diana... if I see any of those champs in the loading screen, I don't wanna play anymore. If they are on the free rotation, or a new skin came out for them, or they're on sale or something, I can't play for a while. It's not even worth logging in because one of those champs will be in every single match for at least a week, which means I can't have any fun this week. I just want to enjoy a pvp game where I can meet up with other players and have a cool fight. A rek or get rekt in 1/2 a second situation is not a cool fight. I've played champs like master yi, yasuo, and others that can melt an enemy almost instantly. When I was new to the game that kind off thing felt good, now it's lame and boring. I want to have an actual fight. I don't want to see if I can press Q faster than the other guy.

Out of about 120 champs there are only 7 or 8 that I would consider to be total-game-ruining-bs-why-are-you-doing-this-to-me-riot-why kind of champions, and yet I see at least one of those 8 champs in every single match I play. Another 20 or so make up the rest off the two teams, and you're left with seeing the same 28 champs constantly, while the others fade off into obscurity. I don't understand what is going on at rito headquarters. I imagine it's something like this "O man, sated devourer makes master yi ten times more ridiculous than he was already. The game ain't even fun anymore. "LET'S NERF GAREN!"

My main point is that the game is no longer fun for me. Many things have caused this. Stuff like sated Kayle & sated Yi. How the hell do you even tank anymore these days when this crazy stuff going on. People are becoming crazy hybrid damage dealers way too early for me to have enough tank items to deal with it. Stealth seems to have gotten more annoying. I'm not sure how to put it into words, but I feel like I have no idea how the game works anymore. All the item changes and champ changes, ackgsdhjfh. I'm just as confused now as I was when I started playing two years ago. I had no idea what was goin on, then I did better, eventually got good, and then stuff made sense. Now I'm back to having no clue what's happening. It seems like everything I learned about the game was thrown out the window around six months ago, and I have to re-learn it all over again. In its current state, I don't think i want to bother learning it again. Does anybody else know what I'm talkin about? Is it just me? Has this happened before? Is the game gonna completely change a few months after I figure it out again?

Then play a Draft Pick mode and ban them. It's not like your team isn't allowed to use them either.

Just throwing it out there, but the free rotation isn't available in ranked. I know that's not your only qualm, but that's one problem solved.

I say the problem is that you don't like change. There are actual legitimate reasons why RIOT has changed things the way they did. Sure, there changes sometimes have unintended consequences, but the main reason something was changed is because there was something lacking or a hole that they wanted to fill/fix. The juggernauts are one example. Their intention is to combat the often whined about "mobility creep" with immovable objects who destroy whatever comes at them. Sure they are overbearing atm, but once they get toned down, it should be fine.
