why do people complain about strategic gaming in league?

I GANK LANES··2 votes·306 views

oh i made a mistake and the enemy capitalized on it, now they have an advantage on me and that's not fair.

this isn't cod, you die and you get punished. if it were the other way around there would be no advanages to taking objectives, making plays, etc in the early game. people would just farm out and the 40 min game team fight would end the fight. i don't get it, vision, invading, playmaking from the jungler, etc is what makes league GREAT.

why do people want this gone? i odn't understand, you like afk farming in your lane until 30 minutes?

i'm not saying 1 kill for which ever team and the game should be over, not at all. it's just like if a lane gets fed, and as a jungler you can't do anything, you help the other side of the map. jungler ganks top? you take dragon; strategic gameplay.

rift herald was a great addition to this and literally everyone i see complains about it. imo, games should not last 45 minutes long.

the game should be focused on the early-mid game, because if you get to late it comes down to a game of getting picked off, scared to even walk into your jungle, etc. thats not fun at all, at least for me.

yep, make this hero arena or some shit. I don't really care anymore. Riot only listens to the cries of bronzes and silvers or balances for the LCS and makes flashy moves. Real strategy (involving positioning both relative to your team and to terrain, fights above 1v1, map control, gold distribution and using your power spikes) is out the window so that LCS pros can make flashy plays and bronze/silvers can cheer them on.

High elo solo queue players that don't want to see the game turn into some hero arena shit are left in the dust.

I'm disagreeing with you lol. The game is now way too stompy. Every player I've asked in mid-high elo solo queue (high plat/low diamond) has hated the changes, both when winning and losing. Only lane matters now. FB is gg.

this you don't agree with? i dont think riot is doing this either but people hate this sht like i said strategic gameplay.

you don't think someone who got a lead on their lane opponent should have an advantage?

lol. I'm not going to argue this with you since you clearly do not grasp what I've said. I never said that, but the current advantages for getting ahead are way too much compared to previous seasons. The game is now balanced only for LCS.

you didnt explain yourself well. and if you read my whole post i said that at the moment the advantages you get for getting an early lead isnt balanced, but you ahve to remember its preseason.
