Are you going to address the snowballing in season 6 Riot?

It seems to me that season 5 is the most snowbally, season ever. I feel like every game, is either a super huge stomp, or you getting destroyed. And I never get any more of those amazing come backs after losing for most of the game, its pretty much whoever gets fed first wins. it's really difficult to come back because of the baron and dragon changes, allowing for anti-sieging to be nearly impossible. The game just always snowballs so hard , and its just depressing.

Do you have any plans, Riot to fix the snowballing in pre-season/season 6?

Wouldn't say this is the most snowbally season would say s3 had to be because whatever team got 1st blood usually won the game. Right now I have had some pretty amazing games which were pretty even until like 30 mins.

they've nerfed snowballing every season. the game isn't even snowbally for the most part now.

You sir, must have no played in a LONG time considering they BUFFED snowballing with the baron/dragon changes, making it harder to comeback. and with all the item changes etc.

This game's unplayable now. I haven't had fun in 90% of the games sense the preseason because either my team is out of control winning by 10 minutes or the other team is. It's seriously broken. 1 person gets a kill 5 minutes in and they can 1v2 instantly. If you lose lane, you lose game. Whoever's jungler gets the first few ganks wins the game for them 90% of the time.

The most recent patch is better than the one before it; you should read the link I posted below.

If you don't, I'll summarize it for you; games are shorter, but pacing got bad in the first preseason patch. This one, things are better, and they will continue to work on game pacing.

Basically, the statement you are asking for already got made. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/1VymTVKu-game-pacing-and-you

EDIT: Saw after posting this was 4 months old (somehow ended up on my recents). Anyway, they did address it here.
