Threads. Riot please nerf these noob bronzies and silver trashcans from being able to post 50-100 threads a day complaining about the meta. Leave it to people who are Diamond or higher, who actually understand and know how to play the game, please. It is beyond toxic to have to deal with complaining on the game, let alone on a place like forums where rational discussion is supposed to be held. These repetitive complaint threads don't have anything insightful or positive to bring and consistently get up voted to the top pages. If people are going to get the option to complain, they need to have reasoning or some sort of open forum to rational conversation attached.

Instead most the time its just this constant: "OMG RIOT DAMGE I QUIT GAME NO FUN ZOE Zoe BROKE I 1 SHOT AND ITS BAD CERTAINLY T GO TO HELL AND OMG ADCVayne OP BUT OMG NOW THIS ADC OPTwitch AND OMG TANK OP Ornn GIVE HIM ANOTHER 25 NERFS AND OMG GAME IS BAD RIOT RIOT RIOT RIOT" with every comment under it being "OMG YA DUDE IM GONNA QUIT TOO RIOT I BEEN HERE FOR 100 YEARS AND ITS BAD OK UR RUINING EVERYTHING NERF EVERYHTHING BUT MY CHAMP Riven OR I GO TO DOTAitem 3070 ." Its not constructive, it's not anything but displaced frustration for lack of skill.

Please Riot, please. Your game has improved every year, and has become more and more dynamic. Ignore the haters, keep making fun additions to the game :)[draven-pose]

You think the game is in a better state now than it was years ago? I miss winning lane through prolonged or multiple good trades, not jumping on someone and one shotting them a couple of times at level 3+. The current state of the game is 100% built around LC$, and Riot no longer gives a shit about the rest of us. It's depressing to someone who has been playing this game for nearly a decade.

Not only is there more damage now than there ever has been before, but with the removal of runes there is also less defensive potential in the early game. Not really sure how you can defend this and claim to be high elo at the same time.

Also, do you have Stockholm Syndrome?

Sounds like you're an ADC main

And here I'll give you numbers. Tristana has been above 50% winrate the past several patches. 15% of games she is picked. For some comparison Lee Sin has a 10% pick rate and a 48% winrate. The fact that Tristana has been like this for so long is ridiculous. Another example is Twitch he has always sat above a 52% winrate, though he doesn't have as high of a pick rate. Top lane is pretty boring right now bruisers are insanely bad and get out damaged by tanks. The really only viable junglers in higher elo are tank junglers. For example Warwick's winrate has been 53% for a while now. Tanks deal more damage than bruisers and can one shot like assassins. The only tanks that don't get murdered by an adc is Maokai and Sejuani. Adc's can click on someone and get 3 autoes off and instantly kill someone. With high attack speed they kill people insanely fast and it isn't fun to play against at all.

The stats don't lie.

You're level 23 and talking about bronze-silvers. Please respond to this on your main or something, because it makes this seem fishy as fuck.
