I've tried...
I've tried giving this patch a chance. I've tried playing a few games this pre season but i just can't anymore.
In short, It's bad. I'm sick of 15-20 minute games. I'm sick of snowball wins. I'm sick of snowball losses. Even when you're on the winning team it's unsatisfying, and down right boring. I dislike the new rift harold, dragons have become nearly useless due to the fact that you cant get more than 1-2 stacks before the game is over.
Died 1 time? lol....there goes your tower. Have to go back and buy but you're not top lane so no tp? there goes your tower. Die with no tp? There goes two towers. Wanna roam to help a lane that's losing like a good mid laner? there goes your tower. TP for a lane gank? there goes your tower. Playing jungle? better play an early game ganker who requires no farm to burst IE: Lee Sin, Rek Sai, Elise, etc. Diversity? what's that?
want to play a late game scaling champ? you're dumb.
Been playing this game consistently since the later half of S2 and this is the absolute worst state it has ever been in. It doesn't even feel like league anymore. I understand changes happen every new season, but this? This is garbage and that's really all there is to it. Worst of all, the minions being stronger for the winning team hasn't even been implemented, so if you think games are fast now.... just wait...
