I have seen enough of the forums to know that about 95% of the league community that posts here is just full of rage and toxic behavior. its absolutely true. can we agree on this? if not. im cool to listen to anyone that may think differently. i wont flame you, or be "no this is right im right always right" etc.

Now... How is league so popular when so many people are so angry all the time. is it because anger drives the nail instead of the hammer? do you understand what im saying?

How does a game that has so many members that are furious still in business? Why is it when the community pleads with the game itself to make changes they dont, and end up making it even worse?

The game, Riot genuinely hates every one of us. They're not willing to listen to any of us because one... we are no one. were nothing. we are trash elo. (unless D1 or higher)

I know for a fact i cannot stand this game. i actually hate this game so much, but i keep playing it. Why is that? am i actually retarded? no... its because the tank meta has been around so long now that i think "any day now assassins and adcs will make a come back." But its not comming back. when i play as akali i want to one shot people because she is meant to be an assassin, i want to be a glass cannon and kill the adc. i dont want to be a glass cannon and have kill you 3x over because shields are just way too overpowered.

6.22 killed this game for me. and yes, theyve reverted a few champions. but like. it took almost 2 seasons for them to finally do this.

Im so tired of this game. as a 1 trick akali with 1.3m mastery im so tired of just being out damaged by a full tank that have ONLY tank items. its so bull shit. i refuse to play a tank cause fuck its so boring.

Ive lost interest in this game when theirs so much cc that you cant move for a genuine 5 seconds. every moment in this game counts. and 5 seconds is just unreal. like holy shit. i just cant do this game anymore. ima go through all the champs i havent seen in over months because this game only revolves around meta

No.

The Boards are not a quality sample size for making assumptions about the entire League community. Some posts on the Boards are full of rage, and a few are completely toxic, but mostly it's just a split between crying, memes, and poorly constructed bait threads.

To put my point of view simply, as someone who has played since mid-season 1, the game isn't nearly as bad off as people think it is.

Riot doesn't hate us, most League players are not toxic and actually enjoy the game, and the community doesn't actually understand balance very well. People change over time, and similarly League has changed hands over the years. Different balance teams and balance team leads have had their shot at it, each with a different balance philosophy. Sometimes changes pull you back into wanting to play, and sometimes they push you away, and sometimes those changes are with you and not the game.

I'm a Garen main, and I play him into literally everything. If that champion has gone top lane or mid lane I have laned against them, no matter if I was at an advantage, disadvantage, or was going to have fun dealing with my opponent. If I stop having fun I stop playing, and when I feel like playing a MOBA I come back. I don't let the stress of a game environment that doesn't support my style of play push me to the edge of never wanting to play again, I give myself time to calm down by playing other things. This is how I've been able to play for so long and still have an optimistic outlook on League's future.

As for seeing the same champions every day, I don't know when you started playing, but I've seen roughly eight years of this game. I don't look at champions on a day to day basis, I look at them month to month or season to season. As with the last paragraph if the champions I see are not fun to test myself against I take a break and come back later. If things have changed I stay, and if not I test the waters to see if I'm having fun yet.

In my personal opinion you're overdue for a serious, legitimate break from the game. Put League down, find something else to occupy your time, and come back both when you feel like playing League again and when thinking of League reminds you more of the good memories than the bad. There is a chance you won't come back, but by the sound of it you're not having fun here anyway. Video games, even competitive ones, are supposed to be fun, so go out and actually enjoy your time.
