Sometimes I wish snowballing returned back to the game.

Just think. You get your early lane advantage but then another lane screws up big time. Sure, you're fed but not like before. The other team can still destroy you easily. Sometimes, I wish the snowballing returned so I wouldn't have to worry about a bad lane potentially messing me up and just carry myself through the game by destroying everyone.

Just a thought. What do you guys think?

So you want 1 champ...to destroy everyone. Did you even read what you just said? Snowball is still here, I'm sure. If it was taken out, it'd be so that some obnoxious player with 3 kills can't faceroll the enemy team. This is a TEAM GAME, if one player can dominate, it defeats the purpose. Katrina, Fizz, Yasuo and many others snowball pretty hard.

More snowball would make the game more imbalanced than it already is.

The problem is, its for that same reason that snowballing can't be allowed. This is a team game, it is won and lost by teams. It should not be decided because one person got crazy fed.

Why should it be decided by one person who is doing awful? Why should the rest of the his/her team be punished?? Why must a game rely on the luck of possibly getting a 100% compliant team?

It shouldn't, this is why anti-snowballing mechanics are in the game. So that one lane losing doesn't make that lane an unstoppable juggernaut that steamrolls the enemy team.

Realize that if there were no anti-snowball mechanics in-game, your matches would be MORE decided by someone else on your team doing poorly. Think back to S2, where it was "Our toplane fed, hopefully when the enemy Singed/Rene/Nasus/ect. 1V5s us, one or two of us may escape."

And we'd see the return of the league of assassins and the days where one kill decided a game. NO.

It's far better to have game rested on a player than having a team mate who can single handedly screw over your whole team. That's not fun. Trying really hard to win a game with a non compliant member is never fun.

Hence why it's better to let me have my dominance and carry the non compliant team member whether they want to win or not.

A lot of people quote the "just carry yourself out of bronze/silver/gold" etc, hanging on from the rhetoric for climbing back before the anti-snowball mechanics were introduced.

It can still be done to a lesser degree, but far harder now than it used to be. There's a lot of changes that need to be made to ranked overall if it's not possible to carry yourself out anymore.

I don't understand. Are you saying "I want to be able to snowball, but I don't want anyone on the other team to be able to"? Because that makes no sense.
