I never imagined I would reach this point.. but I 'hate' the game right now..
WARNING : LONG RANT, nothing constructive
Sorry for the strong use of words but it is exactly how I feel.
I'm not a pro player, I don't know how the balance works. But my brain is good enough to know when it isn't fun. I am also a customer who has paid a lot more money than the average player and I have to say this game has become extremely frustrating to play.
God.. where do I begin..

I don't even find winning satisfying anymore. Certain champions are SO overtuned it makes playing against them a MISERABLE experience. You have to pick another overtuned champion if you really want to win (ranked).
If you beat them.. fine.. doesn't change the fact you wanted to rip your hair out the entire time. -
Losing a teamfight at 25 or 30min leads to losing an ENTIRE LANE of towers and the nexus.. It is just downright stupid. There should be some decline, not just snap and that's it.

Forcefully making champions clunky for the sake of ''counterplay''. Just because there is little counterplay doesn't necessarily mean it is a bad thing. And just because it is balanced with a lot of counteplay doesn't mean it's fun to play as/ against either. You know who people complain about more than

I mainly play mages. And ever since Riot decided to force mages into the utility role 6 months ago, with the occasional single target burst mages, truly carrying a game with a mage is such a rare occurrence that there's no point in trying anymore. Leave that to the ADC, assassins and bruisers. Riot is hellbent on making sure Faker never ever carries a game ever again. The last mage who could truly independently carry a game like one of your great ADCs was
. My heart broke when the changes came out. -
Dynamic Queue.. so many boosted players running around.. so many unfairly matched games..
I'm burned out. If there's one thing I know for sure it's that I am ready to take on another hobby. Good bye!!!!!!! (for real) It was a nice experience before this disgusting season.
