What Happened?

I haven't played in a while due to wifi issues (I'd play ARAMs but that was it, or customs) but I've been on the Boards to kinda try and keep up with any changes.

I started playing Normals again and Ranked last week.

What.....happened?

Like...I feel like the game just became incredibly one sided. You don't really have games where you can spin it around and come back, if the other team is ahead that's GG unless you can consistently outplay them, and if they're that ahead it may not matter what you do.

Botlane feels....like garbage.

I'm a Nami main, I come back to ranked playing Nami and I have yet to fight an actual 'support'. So far, it's been

Veigar, Gragas, I actually had a Cait and Draven botlane IN RANKED. And they all crushed it. I couldn't do enough to stop them, especially when their whole team comes down.

Are regular supports just not a thing? Is the meta to be off meta now? Are sustain/heal supports just not viable or something unless its a more common botlane you're fighting against?

Certain junglers just feel AWFUL to have in game. Kha'zix has been dominating when I see him, it's like having him in your game is a death sentence. Tanky junglers with engage just towerdive you early because your turrets won't help you, and you can't possibly CC everyone in a 2v3.

Botlane is just 1 big target. Nobody goes for Rift Herald because dragons are way more important, so toplane is ignored. I've seen 4-5 man ganks all botlane so they can take tower, snowball from the gold, take dragon, and snowball even more. If the enemy adc does well, it doesn't matter how your other lanes did.

Games last a hell of a lot shorter, so what's the point of late game champions? Are all late game champs just obsolete now? If you pick someone like Nasus you just have to farm and hope the game happens to last long enough for you to be relevant.

I get the game changes with each season...but...this isn't really a healthy way to play
