It's time for me to take another hiatus from this game.
I've played this game since season 4 and after season 6 I took a bit of a vacation from the game. I wasn't mad at the game then, I just felt better playing other games with a fresh experience.
This time it's different. There are times where I want to play this game because I honestly enjoy some parts of it. I enjoy the more attempting to strategize with teammates instead of the usual run and gun that I get with the shooters I play. I enjoy playing around with new or different champions and different builds. I enjoy teaming up with my friend and working together. Winning together, and sometimes losing together.
But every time I play I get slapped in the face with all the things I DON'T like about this game right now. I don't like ADC's being homeless since they don't go into bot lane. I don't like watching my adc lose half their health bar from a single Garen Q. I don't like going against champions that can snowball even after losing first blood. I don't like not being able to protect my adc, since he will be dead before I can apply any major cc to save him. I don't like ending the game with only three items. I don't like playing a game until 30 minutes with only three items because I literally do not have enough gold to buy more. I hate when you see champions locked in and you know that the entire game is going to be about THAT match up, no matter what else happens. I don't like that my friend doesn't want to play this game anymore.
And so I'm taking a vacation and will watch from afar to see if this game sinks into the fucking ground or if Riot decides to come around and fix everything they have broken. See you guys later.
