I last played in the fall of 2013, just after Jinx came out. I know I can read the patch notes, but I’m just looking for big mechanic changes, changes to the Meta, or any surprising champ reworks.
Also, I have about 16,000 IP for new stuff. What would you recommend?
Thanks in advance.

jaymc11302 votesThe game basically went back in time and game play is like it was at the end of season 2. Very fast paced, very unforgiving, very much of a solo hard carry style. Vision was reduced to season 2 levels, diversity ditto. Masteries are op now though. TLD is nasty.
BetweenSkill2 votesGames are far more snowbally, Mordekaiser is now apparently a Marksman, skarner is addicted to crystals, Poppy got a ban-hammer, and towers can be shredded with a minion wave.
And no green wards.

The map is darker than a Jimmy Carr joke.

Yeah, this may be the worst overall change in the game. The complete lack of vision tools in the early game is leading to a super snowbally game state where comebacks are incredibly difficult to achieve. That change is the biggest reason for a lot of the way the game has ended up in bad shape, but its compounded by the minion, bounty, and tower changes to an even higher degree.
I called it as soon as that patch was released:
