Black Market Brawlers promotes snowballing of the worst kind.

I figured testing out this new gamemode with its fancy items would be a fun experience, and who wouldn't love to have one of those new summoner icons, right? Oh boy, if only I had known what awaited me.

I played 7 games so far and all of them were extremely onesided curbstomps, there was nothing in between. The introduction of an additional currency (Krakens) only serves to make snowballing worse: I've had games where the nexus was already gone before the other team even had a chance to surrender. This has to be one of the most imbalanced states I've seen this game in so far.

It almost seems as if the RNG would determine the outcome of every game, after all it's entirely up to luck with Blindpicks if you're facing an extreme counterpick in lane or not. Also how come this game is literally matching up diamonds and masters against golds and plats?

Am I the only one who's really disappointed with this gamemode? Please tell me what you think.

Basically once one team gets fed, thats it. The tanks are bascially super minions that are unstobbable, and if they get baron? forget about it.

meh. while thre brawlers might contribute to some extent, they probably have minimal effect compared to the overpowered items.

I found the brawlers to be useless. Just extra cash.
