My Lord, What League has become.
I'll keep this quick. haha not really.
I've been playing league for about 3 years. I'm nothing spectacular. Nothing worth watching, or worth even reading. Now I have to be honest. I'm not pro, I don't really watch pros, maybe watch the world series and such. My game knowledge comes from actual game play and reading patch notes (those which I choose to read).
Honestly, as ****(F) this game is CATERING to bad players. Players that can't make good decisions, (I've made, and still make), and cannot learn from their mistakes. You can join any game, any type, and still see people bad decisions. I DON'T care, its a damn game. You got to where you are, from what you have done.
My buddy and I, used to roll Darius top and Rengar jungle awhile back. Unranked, never watched any pro players. Just a bunch of doorags playing a game. I used to hide in the top bush as Rengar, wait till he poked a little, jump out and get first blood. Level 2 tower, every game. Super fun, lots of laughs, easy wins. You know, just having fun. No more.
I also played support more often then jungle with another friend who would ADC. Hide in bush and get first blood as Sona with Q. You know, just having fun, never really was a for sure win to games, but got us ahead.
Then support items got released. Got rid of my old school support start, ya know, double faerie charms. Was crazy fun, cause I'm aggressive. Still roll that way sometimes. But the new items offer other alternatives for stats, build, and gold. Not a bad update, but kinda needed for support items as they go.
Then my Rengar got nerfed. To hell. And back, but still stuck in hell. Like the Bola skillshot, was a YAY (I can shoot into FOG and bushes), then you realized how slow the actual skillshot animation took. I'd swap back to the old targeted any day. The scaling for damage of your abilities based on your levels, awesome! Who played a Rengar and got behind? Someone stole your blue, maybe died from a bad gank? Being behind is no fun. You can't do anything. Being ahead is always fun. You can BE AHEAD and kill people. But now you can SCALE, and still KILL people, LIKE everyone else. Now now, I hear it all the time, if you got fed as Rengar, you're just crazy damage. Honestly, ANY champion that is FED, is CRAZY. Any REAL player, has SEEN the SOROKAS, SONAS, BLITZ, you know, those champs, that usually don't get fed, but when they do... They own. Why is Rengar so different? His "triple Q"? Really? That was almost impossible to pull off, (if you could, NICE!), IF YOU DIED, you probably deserved it. I GUARANTEE, you didn't die from that "triple Q" in situation that didn't involve bushes. Cause you know, brush, and Rengar...
* MY only other 2 notes on Rengar, EVEN before his nerf, is his ult. Before his nerf, he would generate ferocity and gain movement speed during his ult, as well as stealth. Now he gains stealth, and after he breaks it, gains movement speed and ferocity. BUT, if Rengar casts his ult, and takes damage (its about 2 secs before he goes into stealth) he will not go into stealth. So if he takes damage, he will not stealth. Before his nerf, if he died while casting his ult, but not actually using his ult ( you know, STEALTH, movement speed, ferocity), it will go on CD. Now, with his nerf, if he dies while casting his ult, with out actually using his ult (stealth), it will go on CD. Its a complete lose lose situation for him. Other champions (Lux, Nami) have the luxury of not having their ult go on cool down as they die, if they try and cast it.
* My other favorite, this thing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH HEY SUMMONER, RENGAR IS IN STEALTH, AND IS APPROACHING. HE IS FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM YOU THAT HE CANNOT JUMP TO YOU, SO YOU SHOULD MAYBE TRY AND GET TO A SAFE LOCATION. OTHERWISE, PREPARE FOR A MILD ATTACK, BUT HE WILL BE GENERATING FEROCITY, SO IF HE DOES MANAGE TO JUMP ON YOU, SO YOU SHOULD FLASH AS SOON AS HE DOES, MAYBE HIDE BEHIND SOME MINIONS. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is much funnier if you have like 3-5 people grouped up
Of course, that's all gone now. Anyways, back to the bad players. I'm not a good one either. But since I AM a player, I can speak my mind, cause obviously these other people have QQ'd enough, time for me to get some of mine in.
The new jungle items.. Like really? You need 4 different items? To jungle? Before, when real people played, it was like this. You buy this machete, and you build it AP or AD. Then you build your core items, like every other champion. Like not so difficult. Build your jungle item to clear your jungle mobs, gank, get some kills/assists, team fight, win the game. Oh yeah, and smite your monster to last hit it to SECURE THE KILL. You know, buffs, dragon, baron. The other mobs are gold. Simple as that. Now you can smite anything (besides yourself, but maybe soon) also any mob in jungle at any time (dragon/baron/players no), and still get a buff! This is just... like crazy. Like someone when to stupidville, saw a stupid person highway, walked into said highway, and got run over by a bunch of morons from Moronville 3 miles west of stupidiville. (Anyone notice I spelt stupidville with a lowercase "s", cause morons know better.)
RIOT, if you want some suggestions! HEAR me out. HEAL should also restore mana and energy! Clarity, should just be just like Heal, minus the energy restoration, let players figure that out! Ghost should also restore health. Flash should travel further if you are behind, maybe about 1500 distance. Ignite should be based off how much gold you are behind, so you do more damage. Cleanse should give barrier and reflect damage, maybe instant killing anyone under 2000 hp that uses any unfriendly ability against them. Oh yeah, maybe Rengar can be like some other champions, who become UNTARGETABLE ( or instantly stealth), when they cast their ult. Maybe they won't die, maybe their will actually get to USE their ult, and be happy.
Whatever, nuff said. Done spending money on RP for random gifts for friends and other RANDOM players that are awesome. LOST MY MONEY RIOT. I'll be spending my monies on Heros of the Storm, liquor, and cheap gas.
