Am I the only one who loves League of Legends but...

...just can't play it anymore? I love the art, the music, the media, the lore, the fandom, even watching the pro scene, but ultimately I just can't play it anymore. Every game feels like a chore instead of actual fun. Knowing that you could die any second to something seemingly out of your control is just so stressful, even more so when your job is to prevent that from happening to your allies (I used to play supports, I say used to cuz I just don't play anymore). Even for the recent 11 days of free stuff, I could only muster up the effort and willpower to play Co-Op for the first 10, and can't even get myself to play the 11th for Annie-Versary. I keep opening the client, browsing around, even entering champion select only to quit the client feeling like the next 30 or so minutes just won't be worth the effort.

Am I the only one who feels this way?

Also on a side note, I know Riot's working on other games such as the fighting game, the card game, TFT exists and there's some kind of top-down game but none of them appeal to me. I'm even less interested in the shooter since that's not within the League of Legends universe and honestly, unfortunately just looks so painfully uninteresting, even if the mechanics are insanely smooth.

There's lots of people who feel the same. I personally quit playing LoL for years (been playing off and on since season 2). I went and played other games (mainly Path of Exile and Dark Souls 3), but I still followed the pro scene pretty closely. I recently have come back to LoL after my hiatus and I've found it to be quite enjoyable. What you're experiencing sounds to me like burnout, you probably need to put the game down and find another hobby to fill your spare time with. At least temporarily anyway.
