Tired of stomping and being stomped.

maybe 2/10 games are really good and could go either way, which is great and feels good. But my god the amount of stomp games due to the new runes are the vast majority of the games that I've played.

After my last game where we got completely and utterly destroyed (yes I made a shit ton of mistakes) but every lane lost.

I understand that getting behind in kills and farm means that you're at an obvious disadvantage but this season seems to hyper punish mistakes of any nature.

Is anyone else having this problem or is it only isolated to gold elo and under?

Well I'm low Bronze, so I can't speak for that last part, but it definitely happens to me. It's possible to come back when you're losing, but it sure as hell ain't easy. Largely, though, this is because teams don't do it right. When you get behind, the current rune setup and such allows a winning team to steamroll fast. A losing team needs to farm quietly, literally run away whenever an enemy appears, and don't chase kills until the odds are evened out a bit.

its not just the new runes. they are only a symptom of the disease that is damage creep. league has become bloated with unnecessary gimmicks,champions and stupid items. The game IMO has begun the downturn that World of Warcraft faced a while ago. they have changed the game into a totally different game aimed at a different audience who all want MOAR DAMAGE. I predict the massive dropoff in players will begin this season and never fully recover.
