The whole point of league was to have such a diverse selection of characters so everyone could play their way. Well there is still one way to play that is not available in this game and it is my FAVORITE way to play. I liked old Malzahar but he got nerfed to actual hell. I like the concept of new Swain , but he sucks in game. I like the latest rework of Ryze but he got nerfed to the ground also and he is getting nerfed again in 8.17 which I just really hate. The few champions I like I am bored of at this time because they are to easy to kill with and break the game. Zed being one of them. champions who I like and were buffed but still cannot get around their weaknesses like Karthus bore me now because I think about having fun getting the satisfying double damage out of his q then I remember I rarely get any use out of it. Maybe i am just bad at Karthus but really I cannot reliably damage anyone with Karthus except his ult.

what I am saying is that I can no longer find a home in league of legends because all of my favorite champions keep getting nerfed and it ruins the fun of the character. Assassins are now getting buffed so much and mages getting nerfed so much mages are really gonna suck in the new meta. Which will also ruin the fun of mages and mid laners. (what used to be my favorite characters)

The character I want to see Is a strength in numbers character. Who relies on swarming his enemies with an army of pets to tear apart enemies. I have been dreaming about a character like this for years but nothing in league meets that "strength in numbers title" malzahar used to have it, now his voidlings are plain useless. I want minions that are good at killing champions. I like to learn where to spawn my minions based on the situation and to control the battle field and bully with them. I want something where I can throw some eggs down next to my enemy in lane and then have them spawn spiders or something. I want to have fun with a character where he can controll the battle field with pet pressure. Hextech turret, thorn spitters, vine lashers, voidlings, mist walkers. None of the non ultimate pet abilities are scary at all.

What I want I a character that can summon a dozen mist walker like things and order them to attack a target, or order them to explode on a target, or he can eat them to restore mana and health. or maybe just buff Yorick mist walkers so he can have a lot more of them. They do so little damage it will not matter. Make them take more hits from basic attacks to kill as well. Because of the little damage they deal it also won't do much if you make them take 2 hits to kill. Think about it. Yorick took a long time digging up those graves at the right time and place to avoid punishment. All I get from that work is 4 ants that get stepped on and do nothing.

the reward for spending time digging graves, taking some damage when you rush in to quickly last hit a minion to dig a grave, AND actually hitting someone with the mist glob thing is hard enough. But the reward for it is Not even close to enough. Letting Yorick get those minions should be scary. when fighting a Yorick I do not care about him getting graves. As soon as he gets one I just hit him with my highest damage basic ability. By the time he has all 4 graves ready the enemy Yorick has lost half of his health in punishment damage. Then he spawns mist walkers then throws the glob at me i dodge it then it is easy as that. If he hits it His minions will do less than 100 damage in response. "That's all the damage he gets to do for doing all of that work? wow that is lame." I felt bad for my opponent, trying so hard to make use of his minions. (this match happened a long time ago when when his rework took place)

I really hope a Champion who's strength is his strength in numbers instead of no strengths at all.

MAKE PETS SCARY AGAIN SO I MAY HAVE FUN AGAIN!

I feel your pain, but... For what it's worth, I still play wild and crazy stuff and have pretty good success with it. /mute all if you have to, just do whatever's fun. As long as you're not actively trying to sabotage your team's victory, it doesn't matter what they say about it.
