How TF are people already saying the changes are awful?

Elder dragon change is largely beneficial. Getting elder generally was already a win con. On top of this, Elder was straight up better than Baron because it gave more tower damage, so there was no reason to take Elder over Baron if both were on the map. Now teams have to choose. If ahead, you can take elder and force a teamfight or you can get Baron to push. The same thing goes for the team that's behind, it's no longer a "Elder's on the map let's do that", it's an actual choice. Also, "oh no execute is broken"-this is the same elder spawn as the 35 minute one. Most games won't go that long and don't go that long. If it gets to be that long a game, new elder helps end it faster. I don't see the issue here, plus now it's not based on dragons so the team that's behind still gets use out of it.

Damage is generally being lowered.
is gone (I'll discuss cloud later). Conquerer will no longer have true damage, so tanks should come back, and Mountain drake now gives MR and Armor. I really see damage generally going down. -
Dragon souls. I really see where people are concerned about Cloud Dragons soul being a passive
but I really think that it's much better. Getting 4 dragons means you have to actually get all 4, meaning one team might not get all of them in any game. The chances of getting 4 are low, and if any enemy team gets 4, that probably means you were heavily out macroed. I could see it being an issue but I don't think it will.
I really don't see why people are whining about the changes already, they seem pretty fair to me. You can disagree of course, but I really see this generally being pretty positive.
getting nerfed and with in a few threads some one else will bitch that he did not get enough of a nerf and some one else is going to shout that Riots stupid because they nerfed the wrong things.
