What's the deal with matchmaking and balancing? It's really upsetting.

How come it's never any close games now a days? I Remember the game 3 seasons ago. Every game was so intense and even. Entering ranked was exciting because you knew the match would be insane.

Now a days, the games end quicker and you either win hard or lose hard. There are no close games anymore. At least not very often.

Wait that's false, i mean the game basically ends in champ select when you see the champs they have compared to you.

Btw how come the bot lane is always hard carry or hard feed? How come champs have 57% win rate and shit? When did the balance team stop playing the game?

Sorry to sound like a c***, but the game is truly hot garbage now a days. But i still love it to much to give it up. It's been a part of my life for quite long so it's hard to drop.

I love the competitive aspect, i love making plays, i love close games where you truly feel challenged and you feel like you have to give it all to win. NOW I JUST GET SHIT ON SO DAMN HARD, OR SHIT ON SOMEONE SO DAMN HARD.

These days you just beg that your bot lane will be the ones to hard carry instead of hard feed. You quit the game in champ select because you can SEE that you don't stand a chance.

Honestly, riot could have stopped making champions long ago. More champs makes the game harder to balance and it increases the rock-paper-scissor factor.

Like what the actual f*** happend riot? Are to many OG's quitting? Too many fresh faces with no LoL experience? F***** H*** MAN IT*S SO FRUSTRATING.

So much truth in your post... I really hope it will change in the future, but I'm not very optimistic

Because bot lane has 2 champs in it and one of them is usually an ADC, so once one side gets ahead, they snowball extremely hard, especially with hard engage supports and/or junglers offering little escape and easy tower dives.

Unpopular theory. Better skill MM makes weaker quality games

Wait that's false, i mean the game basically ends in champ select when you see the champs they have compared to you.

If you are identical skill to your opponent then wouldn't the advantages to a kit result in clear in game advantages?

Unlike a RTS you don't que with your champion so MM cant use specific metrics for picks to try and balance matchup.

Possibly pro play counter picking has biased my view. Ever since faker got cockblocked by the malz pick its been on my mind.

Dragons, tower plates, damage, cc, overloaded kits, overtuned items and runes.

when u have 400 armor and 3800 HP.

But theres a Garen with a Trinity Force as his only DPS item, so naturally he instantly slaughters you, whilst being around 20x tankier than every champion in the game combined. Seems reasonable.
