League has literally never been better

As a support main for four years now, I've always nearly fallen asleep every game. I love the support role, I love the champions, but I hate ADcarries. Both the champs, and the players. The fact that we have 19 different champions whose kits revolve around 'I stand back and auto attack' is ridiculous, with only Jhin and Kalista honestly having any different gameplay patterns outside of when damage spikes hit, the fact that we're finally getting some variety botlane now is incredible. I absolutely ADORE this shift to run bruisers and mages botlane. League hasn't been this genuinely, honestly enjoyable since I was still learning the game and got excited.

I genuinely pray that Riot realizes what a good thing they've accidentally created. While I want to see ADcarries in a slightly stronger place, I hope they don't grovel before whiny ADC mains who want to face the same 18 champions bot literally every single game. Learn to play other champions! There is so much player expression happening right now, we're seeing such incredibly interesting lane combinations! Supports can finally roam without worrying about a monkey Ezreal going too far up.

Riot, you wanted Morde to do this kind of stuff when you reworked him, and now that it's actually working with more than just him, please, god, do not fuck it up.

This is the most fun League has been in YEARS.

Yeah I have never had this feeling since the excitement in Season 1/2... when unknown players rise up to fame for their versatility.

Exactly, before this botlane was the only lane with no role diversity, meaning only ADC mains could get into it. Literally all of my friends suck at botlane since none of us like ADC's. We've argued for hours about who should take one for the team and go bot. But now, we'll actually not be forced into a role we hate. Thanks Riot, with all these people complaining about these things you're doing wrong, here's something you're definitely doing right.

As a ADC/Supp Main, i agree. Sure i still prefer ADCs but its so refreshing atm. As long as ADCs in general are not trash and outclassed in every aspect, its good in my books, especiially from the supporters side.

Like, i legit saw a Darius - Garen vs Kata - Pyke Botlane yesterday and almost had tears of Joy for the Excitement Flashbacks from when i started LoL. Its like freaking Chrismas.

I still hate and permaban Irelia tho

Well if you like it that is good , maybe we can get the Jungle/Scuttle reverted so the same excitement (or any excitement at all) can happen in jungle as well.

Well good, glad you get to have your fun for the first 5 minutes of the game before everyone starts exploding.
