So this season seems to be starting with a bang.
I like many of you have seen some of these changes as unnecessary and troublesome at best. This season so far we have already seen the punishment of the junglers for knowing our roles as if our job and map reading wasn't hard enough. They decided to many the mobs annoying with numbers and add plants that now are a get out of jail free card.Now the plants i have seen are hardly used except of course the bomb plant when a weak player can run to it and be saved.
Now we have seen the permanent auto fill disaster(I know before season 6 this was kinda the same i get it)I came in during preseason 6 or the very beginning of season 6 in December of last year.With this i don't see what is the difference between draft and blind pick they are now virtually the same thing. Why i say this is cause you're now not even guaranteed to get your role;your usually stuck with the scraps even though the people in your team actually que'ed up for them. The quitters you now get as well cause of being locked in a role they don't want is the same as blind.There is no no difference between blind to draft due to this fact.Yes i know you always get the message saying since you filled that you "can play your one of your chosen roles" Like that is such an honor.
So why are we even keeping draft around now since it's now as toxic as blind? i quit playing blind so i did not have to deal with hoping to get my role and auto locking pricks and the quitters over the role issue(pretty much the totally general toxic crap).But ok i can live with this i guess still don't see the and i hate it but ok. So now how are you suppose to practice your role to get better at it or certain champs? still don't see a practice mode that we were told about so i am still making custom games.
What bothers me the most about it is the fact you did this to ranked as well. This is the mode were you bring your best to the table to show how good you are. This is the mode everyone and their dad reports you for doing something wrong period. So it's already toxic enough this is just dumping gas on a huge fire and screaming don't worry it's controlled. People spent their ip and rp around the roles they play i know for myself i do NOT have all the runes or more then 2 pages. i don't have masteries set for all the champs i own or for ones i never play. So now being forced into say(since it's the one being called all the time) support.i don't have ruins set for it nor do i have masteries set for them so now i am at disadvantage cause i am not ready for a role i don't play.
So with all of this stated as best as i can type i am sure this is going to cause players to leave or play less.I mean i litterally have 3 support champs that would not be considered trolling and if i did bad i am sure i'll be reported over and over then banned i am sure.So why fix something that is not broke rito?
Why also should we spend our time,effort,and money now on a game that we now have to play in roles we don't want or can play well just to be reported,banned, or dodge and get punished? I mean come on why not focus on the real problems like item balance, champ balance,etc. Why waste effort on the things that were fine?
