i made such a bad post hours ago which when i came to my senses i realise it was just a post of quantity without quality so i deleted it...

What made me make it was a sensation so painful that i feel like I could barf trying to remember it

I FELT LEFT OUT,i saw the whole boards erupt in rage SOLO Q DYANMIC Q AND EKKO MAGE UPDATE BLAH BLAH BLAH and i felt like doing something similar something to hate on Riot,but i lied to myself,i like Riot patch by patch update after update

I made the lowest quality post possible only the blank Yasuo QQ posts could be worse,Just big pointless buzzwords many words that don't give any meaning

Here is my tip to all when making a post on the gameplay section 1.stay sane and healthy and don't turn into a flurry of rage to Riot for what they've done believe me it'll make your post quality better 2.Think before you post,I'm being a major hypocrite for saying this for ill repeat this mistake time and time again but hopefully you all shall not 3.Avoid big buzzwords

i guess ill end it with #maketheboardsgreatagain

Don't worry, we'll cut all champion design spending. Then we'll get Blizzard to pay for it

It's too bad the boards can't be changed, we can only applaud those who stay sane ;n;

Boards in nutshell:

  1. Dynamic queue being broken by premades! -posted mainly by silver to gold players who aren't affected at all. Only few posters are from high enough rank to be screwed by DQ (Dia+)
  2. Towers are too weak! -posted by players unable to adapt since January, overextending, ignoring minion control and map awareness. Oh god.
  3. Ekko too strong! -actually valid rant, but in normals it doesn't matter much and he's banned most of time in ranked so its not that bad.

The first two are valid to an extent as well. The problem is that people are just constantly circlejerking about it and beating the fuck out of a dead horse. Circlejerking is still circlejerking if you're right.

Well, what is really happening here, is the legit comments are going unnoticed.

  • 4 man teams not communicating with the solo queue player. (makes the game less enjoyable)

  • Supports on the decline, because fill always means support, so people stopped putting it as a secondary.

  • 20-30 minute (non-support) queue times near high gold low plat. I can only imagine higher MMR.

  • The game is super snowbally. (mostly because people wanted shorter games)

  • Low level game experience being terrible because of smurfs and perma-banned players.

  • High levels of toxicity in tier 5 MMR's

  • Some champ balance (WiP)

Instead we just get the I'm angry because I lost and that isn't fair. I deserve the winning team's LP (even though I lost) because I deserve it. #FeeltheBern

You know what would fix this? The main problem is that the 4 man are usually on Skype or Curse, but if there was in-client voice chat, they wouldn't need to use these mediums and would automatically be in a chat with the 5th.

  • Supports on the decline, because fill always means support, so people stopped putting it as a secondary.

This is basically impossible to fix without massively inflating the already large queue times. My two main concerns when Riot announced the new champ select were role shortages and queue time impacts.

In-client voice chat would have so many problems with toxicity that I don't even want to talk about it. It would be much more difficult to record and take up more space, plus, an automatic system would be unable to sift through it.

I know about the toxicity thing. But with dynamic queue here it would be the only way of reducing the premade advantage.

I did something quite similar a while ago. I made a post questioning if the balance team even played the game, saw how many people reacted, and realized I didn't care about 90% of what I whined about in the post. The boards are mostly just a massive circlejerk with almost no real discussion, and it rubs off. I'd recommend just staying away from the boards if you can help it. There's a lot of fun stuff on here but it's buried in waves negativity. [zombie-nunu-bummed]

my comment was deleted... I think I said something about everyone on the boards whining or something like that, and then Rito sends me this: "Your Content Has Been Removed From: Riot Games Hey psychoBlastShock,

While we do allow a number of topics that can be discussed about, there are some areas of discussion which are better left to other community platforms.
