I personally think that what riot announced for Preseason of Season 10 is by far NOT enough to solve the issues League has since Season 8 ....
soooo now your turn? What would u have done or announced for this Preseason?
All pvp game modes open permanently. URF, Blitz, Ascension, Hexakill, OFA, etc. All that shit available 24/7.
Riot is rolling out a bunch of new games, so it's time they stop telling us "unpopular", "new client", "but you'll get burned out", or whatever excuse they're selling at this point to keep us engaged in watching competitive or pretending that we'll all grow up to be pros if we shuffle into ranked SR LCS Simulator.
They should just unvault the fun shit, since ranked will remain an active dumpster fire while they put their resources into phone games or whatever.
I'd do something about all the damage in the game It aint fun when everyone is assassin now
since season 8? lol game has been going downhill longer than that bud.
Personally if I had to give some bullet points for Riot to check off, I'd say lowering damage is at the top because dying in less than a second isn't very fun nor is it strategic. Plus look at Worlds, its fucking boring... one team gets a minor lead and just steamrolls, makes a pro team look like a team of silvers trying to fight back against impossible to beat champions.
Nerf problem champions like Pyke and Yuumi, no reason for them to be so overpowered. Nerf all the problem champions and then slowly build them back up, don't leave them in this extremely broken state for so long. If you can't balance them then you made a serious mistake releasing them.
Less RNG with Dragons, since they are so much more impactful now the RNG needs to be toned down or at least more clarity. Keep the changes because I do think the elemental map thing could be fun once we get used to it, i just don't like the RNG factor. Dragons Souls are all terrible, remove them all and just keep the map shifting thing. Elder Dragon buff is stupid, remove it.
Don't give Top and Mid more XP, you are just going to turn Bot lane into more of a fiesta than it already is. Top side jungle should be more open, more pathways through it so its easy for a Top laner to roam around. If mid lane is going to be able to influence all three lanes, Top lane should be able to influence the Junglers. Top lane should be able to pressure enemy Junglers and come to the aid of their Jungler faster if need be.
Keystones are terrible, runes reforged is terrible. Start dialing back Runes influence on the game, they have become a key component in the damage spike this game has seen over the years. The more champions rely on these Runes the more balance problems arise. They break certain champions, and some don't have a good Keystone to take and thus fall behind others in their class. Its just all around a bad system, time to do away with it and introduce something less impactful but still useful and customizable for your match-ups. Just simple stat increases will do fine, may be boring but no one every complained about the old system.
Crit needs a rework, its pretty stupid to lose a fight because the enemy got a lucky crit and did 3/4ths of your health. You should always be aware how much damage your opponents and your own champion are capable of doing. Champions like Yasuo and Tryndamere shouldn't have Crit in their kits at all. Take too much of their power budget and make them near impossible to fully balance.
Finally Tank Itemization needs work. Tanks shouldn't have to deal damage to feel useful, champions like Poppy and Zac make it very hard to buff tank items as they are really hard to kill and dish out a shit ton of damage. Just give Tanks more options that benefit them the more they build Tank. Make them feel actually useful, like the gold they spent on their items isn't completely overshadowed by a carry building 2 items. Revamp scaling tank items, add some new ones. The game needs more MR items in general, not just for Tanks, so add in some options there as well.
Tribunal 2.0
personally I would abandon the balance of my game in favor of releasing overtuned champs so players are more inclined to spend real money to keep up with the latest broken champ, plus all their shiny new skins, in order to make as much profit for my Chinese overlords.
Remove 
Revert 
Q buff.
Revert every buff given to 
this season.
Revert Patch 8.10 (Jungle patch)
Revert Patch 8.11 (ADC patch) and undo most of the "compensation" buffs given because of 8.11
I would destroy runes reforged permanently. Worst update to the game ever.
-5 damage
-5 damage
(only 1 per item, upgrading parts together removes multiple(having 6 long swords in inventory is a bad idea))all items with ability power receive a -5 damage nerf (same as attack damage)
(don't have 6 
in inventory )
would be too much) 
+2 armor
any upgrades +3 armor
any full items +5 armorsame for magic resist
+2 magic resist
any upgrades +3 magic resist
any full items +5 magic resist
revert the armor 90% of the champions got when aftershock were released (I think it was Leona, braum and a few others(the champions that synergizes with it would abuse it))
TL:DR tanks are tankier damage toned down and that is the preseason, monitor for the 1-2 months of no patches. let it have time to settle, leave room for people to adjust, learn, adapt. be open to feedback.
Rolled back to like 7.16.
Just go back to S4, S5, or S6, baby. Good old days. Keep new champions (maybe not some reworks, cough cough) but make sure they're balanced around what those seasons were like. Easily becomes the game we loved back then.
Oh, and fix the dumb ass client.
[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
Make AP bruiser items
ANYTHING but adding more damage and rng to the game. they literally couldnt make it worse unless they do this one thing. and they did this one thing.
remove klepto completely
make the resolve tree actually giving tankiness instead of hidden damage runes
removed from the game
Active is now a skillshot, no longer gives omnivamp instead it gives spellvamp + lifesteal like the old one (so it can't proc on onhits damage).
No longer procs secondary effects like comet and liandry
%penetration no longer works with flat penetration or lethality (shares the same unique passive)
Sheen damage reduced from 200% to 150%
Armor formula changed to give higher %damage reduction after 150 armor.
legit just revert to season 5 and work back up from there, its too far gone at this point
move duo to flex
Revert Akali and Aatrox
Fix the client
REVERT ASOL, NERF DAMAGE IN GAME, REMOVE PLATES, REMOVE SNOWBALLING SYSTEM, SO EVERY GAME IS NOT LOOKING THE SAME
All champions that have 3-4 skins or less (not including default and skins that are not available all year round) are taking priority for skins while any champion not meeting these categories will be put on wait until the other champions are given a skin. Any champion that does not meet this requirement will also be exempt from receiving an ultimate skin. (victorious skins will maintain the same rule set)
is now a melee only item (eat shit ezreal 'and this is coming from an ezreal main' )

I would have reevaluated every item, stat (AD, AS, AR, MR etc) and champion and just tried to make it as balanced as I can. If there happens to be a meta where a champion is stronger, the balancing would cause them to be slightly better than everyone else compared to now where meta champs are must pick champs. This would open up more playstyles and motivate people to play whatever they want to.
Also I would restrict new champion releases to 1 per year and revert some reworks like Akali and Irelia. This is mostly due to the same thing happening whenever a new champ is released/reworked. First they suck then after 2 weeks, they becomes OP as hell, then get nerfed to the ground until Riot is satisfied. It also creates the problem that champions with more complex mechanics are always superior to simple champions which gives you very few reasons to play the simple champion.
EDIT: This is actually what I hoped would happen this preseason because many ppl complained about power creep and what not, also im a major 
fan and I wanted to see some changes where he could be played in solo queue.
Not make a pointless alcove
nerf all the damage items and add def stats to defensive items then slowly add back/remove the def and damage to reduce the amount of burst in the game.
go back to the original runes and mastery’s or put more creativity in the current one.
When a dragon dies, have it drop 3 eggs, you can select what dragon comes next but you can’t pick the one you just killed. Elder doesn’t execute, it flys down mid as a stronger rift herald
Don’t have the dragons change the map, have them give more useful buffs like “gain % more armor/magic resist” or “wards lasts % longer and the sight range is increased by %”
Remove scuttle bug and switch the jg item debuff from less gold from minions to less XP.
Add the jg ward item back
Switch the placement of dragons and Barron/herald so jg has to choose to help bot lane or go for dragon instead of just staying bot side.
Delete yasuo (not rework cause they always make worse)
I would expand runes of reforged to allow for more play styles and add another tree. I would then also spread some of the defensive options between Resolve and the new tree, and make the new tree be defense and utility only; thus giving extra options there.
There are still many champions who don't have a great keystone for them or an optimal set of runes and they just pick whatever is reasonably close to what they want.
I would like to see the runes explored more to find new play styles and have some more runes that work for champions who have been just getting by on whatever they can. For example, we shouldn't still be seeing people use Aery on champions who don't have shields to go with it. However, a lot of champions still do because Comet is lack luster for anything than pure poke and Electrocute requires triple hits. Dark harvest is okay, but unless your champion has a way to repeatedly combo on the enemy team it becomes a worse Electrocute because the resets don't matter as much.
Plus I think there are still a lot of creative things left to do with runes that haven't been touched on yet. Like for example, what if there was a keystone rune that gave you a temporary shield while you were out of combat and when it popped it would knock back enemies in your location. I also miss the old rune that was like.. Celestial body or something like that, which gave you temporarily reduced damage for the start of the game in exchange for an extra 100 health.
Starting to ramble, but you get the idea. There's a lot of room left to grow with the rune trees.
really not sure why riot is rushing to add stuff..
They still haven't balanced any of the issues caused by the Runes and updates to the game.. since season 8. AP being a huge issue along with others.
and now they want to throw in the dragon changes and add environmental like come one fix the issues you have first.
Keep TT :'(
Both changes are intended reshape the ADC pattern, enabling them to still have good DPS while freeing them from the need to build 3+ crit items. This would turn ADC builds in general back towards their S2-S5 states, with room and need for defensive items and target-specific offensive items. Instead of the current situation, in which ADCs' raw DPS is so high to preclude the need for specific antitank itemization.
What I'd have done:
Make some actual armor and magic resist items exist while nerfing aftershock
Like the thing literally exists with +70 Armor and MR just because the base items are that worthless. And its temporary. If you wonder why you're squishy even as a tank, consider how much true damage and %hp damage is in the game and how little option you have to counter the latter. Aftershock and shields/heals are THE options. If you don't have good heal itemization or a shield in your kit, better take Aftershock or you get oneshot.
Riot spent years nerfing durability and people should be allowed to build it again. Even when tanks were super meta damage was always better than resists, there's no reason to make it worse other than to speed up games which is seemingly a priority for Riot. This dragon execute and dragon soul shit makes it seem they STILL think the game is too slow when its more explosive than ever.
They're not done announcing things for the pre-season. It was a first look, there's more things to be announced for the pre-season.
I would have reduced kill Gold by 60% in order to combat the rampant feeding in SoloQ. This would allow players with a hardcore feeder or two on their team to actually have a reasonable chance at winning.
Nerf camp exp, increase how often a camp spawns, forge new unique jungle items that have a full power and partial power forms, shave off / remove CDR on certain items, make all champions who do not rely on mana unable to use CDR then rebalance them.
Remove all plants besides blast cones and add new smite buffs with wolf scout returning and the others being all new, i would keep all the new elemental dragon stuff but wind dragon would not grant CDR it would instead increase the CD of enemy dashes by 1 second, additionally ocean dragon would not summon more bushes it would collapse the mid lane bridge to be apart of river and blue buff jungle would be flooded by the river as well and be treated as river for affected runes.
Plating would gain an extra 10 resists and the gold value of plate would be halved, junglers and supports via items would have faster ward regeneration.
