Winning = not fun. Losing = not fun. Game = not fun.

Well Riot idk how you did it, but somehow you have ran this game straight into the ground.

I played 2 games just now, stomped the first one, and got stomped the second one. Not an ounce of fun in either one.

no toxic players, no trolls, just 2 fair teamwork oriented games of league... both boring af. I'm starting to believe I'm officially addicted to this game because I force myself to play to hopefully climb to diamond one day, but I hate every second of it or am just bored beyond belief.

You've heard it all before but i'll say it again for the heck of it.

Damage too high, games too snowbally, OP champs so OP that 75% of the entire champ roster becomes obsolete compared to them. towers too weak, game can be lost from one person now ( because of everything else mentioned before ) and hextech chests not worth buying anymore.

Starting to hope I can finally settle down and quit this game for good ........... or you fix this mess you've made. Oh well

I think most people aren't finding the game enjoyable from the "Forced teamplay" which causes the team with the worst player to auto-loose more often then it should. Nothing worse then every player doing great, but a single 1-8 causes a loss.

It really makes you feel like your lane performance and value means nothing if you get unlucky from matchmaking. If your "S" ranked and played your champion perfectly/won your lane - and still loose LP because "Someone else's performance" it makes you not want to play as often. I'd be perfectly ok with more of my losses if I felt like I caused them. When it's out of your control :/ not so much.

I get there going to add more divisions to rank, and attempt to fix the que finder... but atm, matchmaking is utter trash.

I play 1-2 games a day and get off. If riot wanted to kill this game, they are sure doing a great job of it.

Games are feeling more and more like putting together a puzzle that you've already put together hundreds of times before.

I really believe that if damage was toned down and if the early game lasted longer than 7 minutes then the game would be more interesting again because people could fight their laners and not have to be so cautious because a level 2 mistake could literally cost them their lane or their teams game.

So you are "hoping you can finally settle down and quit"? You do realize League is a game, right? If you don't like it, stop playing. Thats not something you have to "hope" or "settle down" for.

Couldn't agree more. This has been a developing problem for a few seasons now, but it's really come to a head in season 8.

If damage was lower, I think most of the problems this game has would evaporate. Think about it, if damage were lower...

  • Tower dives would be much more risky.
  • Everyone could survive long enough to react to what's happening
  • Tanks would feel better to play overall, but their damage would be lower so they would have to rely on their tema moreso than now.

Actually... everyone would have to rely on their team. Nerfing damage across the board sounds like an ideal solution.

I have fun when I'm winning or losing 90% of the time.

I just wish riot would realize that the playerbase is extremely unhappy and they need to take everything and figure out what needs to be fixed and what doesn't.. instead of all these little fixes here and there, they need to completely revamp the entire state of the game before it's too late.

I don't think they have heard it. Because they haven't responded to it.

The real problem is that the only real strategy is the same. One strategy is the best, and everything else is really sub-par, as opposed to other seasons where you could take different roads and get to the same destination. Now, it's take bot tower, rotate top, take top, rotate mid take mid, take dragon, take herald, starting stealing enemy camps and start sieging in between lanes for easy tower taking. At 20 minutes start pushing and fall back to baron.

This is the best strategy, works really well, and anything to play that's not this, isn't gonna work simply because of how good and easy this is. This results into a very one-dimensional game play, which people can find boring after a while.

I've pretty much given up on getting anywhere in ranked. Riot would rather let this go to shit than admit the runes are terribly balanced.

Not to mention a large portion of people will blindly follow riots balancing decisions.
