As a devoted customer i am outraged that Riot refuses to cleanup SoloQ and the game in general

Easy methods to climb the elo ladder still exist after so long and it is a real shame that they have not been addressed because it just makes the game look terrible and with little strategy.

I've been hammering at soloQ, 6 years under my belt of experience, i play a lot, I watch nearly all of the competitive scene and i have almost knowledge on power spikes. I cover the Top and support role like a trained machine and take pride in my ability to see the match as a whole anaylzing and determining as much as possible, on top of this i have made some really solid duo Q partners recently.

It only takes one poor performer in your team to open up the gates to the "snowball freelo slide" to the following champs : Kat , Nidalee, Fizz, Shaco, Master Yi. Riven, Kalista, Le Blanc, poppy, Vi, Wukong, Rengar, Teemo and maybe 10 more. Why do i have to play soloQ in fear of one of these champions being available to the enemy and played decently? Over 75% of the picks i mentioned have no place in the competitive scene as they are easily counterible but why do i and many others have to suffer because you've decided to write lore about teemo, i mean you left kassadin completely broken for 4-5 yeas? how long will it take before you actually decide to make this game suitable for Moba players, actual thinkers and strategists.

Mimer was a player known for his godly Rengar top play in SoloQ and that was about it, it goes to show how much of a joke actual LoL play is in the western scene (hack and slash game) and why Asian sides are head and shoulders above in not only skill but actual team orientated champion picks and compisitions and understanding more about how this game works as a whole looking way past the laning phase. Not slamming all players here, you also need to look know further than elements as well, some of "SoloQ's finest" not a shred of team play and not enough experience on team orientated picks that are the highlight of the LCK/LPL scene.

These 1 second killers should not exist in soloQ as they require split second decision making and essentially precise skillshots to be able to deal with them. In SoloQ people could have pings nearing or over 100, not good for when that katarina on 30 odd ping has a 4 kill streak and all the items to chew through the beefest of frontlines and of course the obvious one is that in SoloQ we are not a team and can't co-ordinate cc and movements which are the very reasons these champions don't exist in the competitve scene.

The 5.6 patch included an insult to actual players by including a speel about Nidalee and that we're not planning on nerfing it yet due to the tank meta being potentially overwhelming. Well the tank meta is what the majority of players wanted, people want more structure. strategy, team compositions and teamwork to their games and not an entire lineup of soloQ's finest (Top : Riven Mid : Katarina Jungle : Fizz/Shaco... you get the idea!). Also in 5.6 katarina was nerfed so she may have to forget about buying boots at start and have to build like everyone else! :DDDDD

Why is League of Legends still a hack and slash game, aren't you popular and successful enough to clean it up alreadly? When can i finally scream from the rooftops that LoL is my favourite game ever full of strategy, mechanics, team play. When can i start loving Riot Games instead of hating them for missed potential and a lack of attention to devoted players.

I love how Riot moderator's automatically downvote any critism.
