Mage Update, and updates in general
Part of me wants to go back to playing dota 2. I've been a mid main for 3 years and playing this game since release. This is pretty much the only game I have played in the past few years. Riot used to make smart changes. Now I feel like they just randomly rework stuff when they run out of ideas. I don't even know what the balance team is like anymore, or whoever is coming up with these ideas. But simply put, this isn't fun anymore. These changes aren't fun anymore. I don't care so much that solo queue has been butchered. I don't care so much that ranked 5's has been butchered. I do care when workers are so short sighted that they don't even realize the impact the changes have on the game. Do they even do their research? Re-working a champion might be an okay idea if they have been unplayed in competitive for a significant amount of time. But do you not see that cassiopeia has been playing in competitive throughout this entire season? Granted she hasn't been spammed, but she has seen a good more amount of play than other champions in this game. And when she's making the re-emergence, you guys are going to randomly re-work her? Why? For what purpose? What is expected to be gained out of this?
Seriously, just for reference, look at Dota 2. I like league of legends more for many reasons, but there is one thing being done right about that game. They don't randomly change a ton of things on a regular basis. They get to a point where there are a lot of viable heros and combinations that can be run, and they leave it that way. Sometimes I feel like Riot just changes things for the sake of changing things. And that is how you start the destruction of the best game in all of eSports.
