Remember when Riot said they wanted to diversify the League experience

I remember reading a Riot post that came out before season 6 rolled out. They explained that they wanted to expand the gaming experience and add more options - for example, creating a jungle that had many diverse paths. Fast forward to now. I don't want to be guilty of generalizing but it feels like most games are the same. Play, play, play, farm, farm, farm, blah, blah, blah... then it comes down to teamfights when tanks are the kings. I am in gold and it could just be my division but split pushing really isn't a thing and junglers run the same path most of the time and the game doesn't feel changed that much at all expect for longer death timers and turrets that tickle. But being dead longer and the weakness of turrets isn't the kind of diversity that I was expecting. To be honest, I've been let down. I was hopeful that I would enjoy games a little bit more but there is still quite a bit of toxicity and DCs and afkers and the game doesn't feel that much different; it feels worse.
