It's time to set the record straight about Ghostcrawler.

Since this is gonna be a rant post, don't expect me to mince words here, so let's get to it.

I am getting sick of hearing about Ghostcrawler's this and ghostcrawler's that and who he sucks and is a cancer, literally and figuratively in the gaming community and how everyone is blaming him for shit. I am not defending him but for fucks sake you dumbfucks, you are not giving anyone constructive reason or proof he is a disease. all I hear is, something does bad, OMFG IT'S ALL GHOSTCRAWLER'S FAULT FIRE HIM OR I AM GONNA QUIT THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least when CertainlyT messes up people can see it and we can all judge him for that, we know where he stands among the community. hell I am even sure that behind closed door 'T was read the riot act for some of his mess ups.

So if you want to make a complaint about GhostCrawler make fucking sure it's legit and it's has merit. Because I am getting tired of all this ambiguity about his skills as a developer. I seriously doubt riot would hire him if he didn't quality and would boot his ass if he sucked, not to mention that Rioters are **FAR ** more open to talking with their playerbase that blizzard is. Scapegoating people doesn't solve shit.

Peace.

Was read the RIOT act.

You just KNEW that would make me laugh, didn't you?

But on a more serious tone, Yes, we tend to give them more Flak than we really need to, but, that's human nature, in many aspects.

Must have not played WoW, have you? Took the game 3 years to recover from what Ghostcrawler did to it.

CertainlyT redeemed himself with the best excellent Warwick rework.

I can't help but feel like better communication on Riot's part would alleviate much of the hate posts directed at them. People don't like having their concerns ignored, and Riot is imfamous for doing just that. (Hello CertainlyT.)

Riot doesn't fire people. Case and point, riot repertoir, despite failing almost every one of his reworks, is now working on the tank rework.

You want to judge Ghostcrawler based on his contributions? Sure. Keystones are shit and have added more issues to the game then they will ever solve. The games direction of powercreeping damage followed by powercreeping shields/healing is a cancer but Riot has yet to address any of this, instead they're going ham with it. Tower changes were retarded. Dragon RNG still feels like shit.

I really don't give a fuck how much you want to suck his dick for a pat on the head, but the situation is ambiguous because he's the lead game designer, it's his fucking job. I know Rioters love passing the blame by claiming everything is being done by a different department we can't comment but at some point someone has to man the fuck up and say yeah this retarded shit? It was my fault. You can either start with the people actually in charge like ghostcrawler/meddler, or you can just pretend they don't actually do anything at riot, their job titles are just for show, and just pretend all the crap that gets implemented into league are just acts of God.

The reason why he is re%%%%%ed is obvious LOL he made 2 of the best game in the world into bad games that everybody fcking hates today and only play because they litterally have nothing else to play. riot fcked up HARD by hiring him and he only blames others because he have worst leadership ever and still is the lead designer. Its sad and riot tells us to stop flame at him, but we get flamed 70% of the games for bullshiit that happens in their game because of his decisions! they answer this by permaban (wich is a way to earn more money as they can IPban but dont do it as it woulnt generate them new cash income) there is a clear gap since season 4 that the player base has fallen down since every pre-season since he got hired.
