Different Kinds Of Fun

this is a rant thread, no objection on that, but i would like to just hear me out. i see theres two kinds of fun, one where you own, and one where you like playing your champs. but before that i want to explain my view on something

each season, new champs come in or patches some champs go out. the meta changes. i was told people only play lee (just an example champ) cause hes "fun", to me a champ doesnt just go from being rarely played to being played all the time cause they're "fun". its cause theyre in meta and theyre strong right now, thats how i view it. if urgots q got buffed to do 10 times more dmg, you'd see him all the time

ive had my fair share of playing the meta champs and owning and even talking shit. but lately ive been wanting to experience the entirety of the game itself, (playing the champs i want, the modes i want) but. that doesn't mean i dont like to get fed or own every now and then. which i find it very difficult to do when the champ you want to play isnt in the meta. i wish i could draft, but that only eliminates some of the champs, when theres about 20 each meta to me.

just how i view this game, it may not be what you think, but thats life. its how i view it, and it makes me think this game is very poor.

and to add on top of it, i nvr liked the chroma skins. recoloring and selling for money, blatant greed to me

I'm glad you bring up both viewpoints in your view. Some people want to play champs for fun, others to win. Personally I dislike the meta because people become so engrained into it, with cookie cutter builds and prerecorded paths. There isn't anything wrong with the meta, just how people work with it (this is my opinion though).

If I find myself playing a champion I don't like all for the sake of winning, then I will have to stop playing.

i just want people to see how i view it, read others thoughts and opinions and views.

the reason ive been playing out of meta champs right now is cause im sick of playing to win, but now its becoming im sick of playing to lose, feels like i have to play the out of meta champs in AI to experience what theyre like. i probably wont quit league, im just upset right now _

Personally I think communication with teammates and skill with said champion can make anything work.

But I'm much too optimistic for this game. Which is odd considering I'm pessimistic in everyday life.

true, ive been shutdown for an entire game because of perfectly timed ganks and positions within the first 10mins

Idk if he's in meta.. but I've been enjoying Kennen both as a toplaner and an ADC.

I may not get alot of kills but I tend to get many assists. and I still feel pretty fed when I have 3k gold before going back on assists/farm.

I concur, and it's part of why I don't play as often as I used to; and why I tend to play aram, just to see more than 20 champs played.
