It is God. Damn. CHRISTMAS. They won't be back until the new year. If you're looking for an immediate difference in the game and for your favorite champ to be back in favor, let them have the damn week.

They had TWO MONTHS to fix preseason mess and they haven't done SHIT.

You think a week will change anything?

Really?

There are some cases where they (still) haven't fixed some shit even after few seasons ;P

Sraeg20137 votes

Well my previous post was only about the preseason 8.

Should I even mention, for example, the entire Season 7 at this point?

HeimerLmao2 votes

And that's what I like to call "Yasuo release".

Sraeg20131 votes

If Yasuo release was your only problem, you'd have no problems.

HeimerLmao2 votes

Chill, I'm just joking around.

Sraeg20131 votes

I am chill though. Just saying how it is.

AirKingNeo2 votes

Cool, but they refused to fix season 7 because of preparing for preseason.

Preseason is here and looks completely unprepared for. Nothing from it nor season 7 is fixed.

Saianna1 votes

They are preparing for preparation of preparation for preseason 8 preparation.

In other words... fk.. I'm kinda lost..

RainbowIcee1 votes

you misunderstand the idea that they think these things are a problem. This is just as intended for them so there is no "fixing" there's just deal with it. Shit i wish we had the previous jungle as it was a lot more entertaining and fluent and this one is dull but that's already forgotten.

Sraeg20131 votes

Please, where have I even implied otherwise? Of course it's intended. They aren't above hotfixing shit like this the day after. The fact they haven't just proves they don't care.

The season strats in january chill the fuck out. If you really think its easy to balance 130+ champions with the new runes they just introduced ypu go do it.

Sraeg20131 votes

I've played this game for far too long to be that naive.

If they had any intention of changing any of you'd already see substantial changes being made. The fact they haven't even started shows next-to-nothing will change before the season begins.

"Hey riot, can we balance something now that you're not doing anything right now?"

Riot: Nope, we all died

"what?"

Riot: A meteor hit all our global HQs simultaneously, except for the skins and esports management.

"But... who are you then? Can you do anything?"

Riot: Oh, it's certainlyt, I lived because my new jg mage support ADC vanguard zoe skimirsher assassin champ has 4 invurnabilities. Sure I can do some balance work.

"FUCK NEVERMIND"

Yasuo rn isnt an issue at all. People like to just complain because hes getting buffs at all.

Why can't people seem to understand that a champ doesn't need to be op or broken to still have a very frustratingly annoying kit.

I gave riot time since the what? four? Canceled fighter reworks. Ardent meta i waited patiently half a year. I endured dynamicQ for over a year. Enough is enough. Riot is unwilling or unable to do anything. Yeah obviously they are not changing it RIGHT NOW AT CHRISTMAS but there is no other choice but to make clear something needs to happen and a lot of people are not willing anymore to just sit back and hope for something to happen. Kinda riots own fault they already revealed a lot of stuff they are aiming for in 8.1/8.2 so obviously people are starting NOW to bitch about in hopes of riot changing something in those patches.

RainXBlade2 votes

Riot is far from a bad company, but I think they should at least listen to what the community wants in the smallest time possible. The problem with Riot is that they don't often quickly respond to what the community wants and would occasionally delay in their response.

GayFluffyUnicorn1 votes

From what i've experienced over the years riot doesn't give a rats ass unless something is breaking pro play or the community goes completely ape shit, e.g. BE, dynamicQ, the current hextech reroll scam.

Nah, y'know what the real problem is? Riot is a company riot actually does a lot what the "community" wants, problem is the vast majority of the community are unranked casuals and couldn't give any shit about balance and riot is running into the same trap a lot of other companies ran into by catering towards the huge casual whales coming in overseeing those will only be a quick cash in until they move on and it kinda contradicts the point of riot to make league a long lasting esports title which they said themselves they aim for. If that is what they want it seems even more depressing how they ignore a lot of feedback from the higher elo community who is very dedicated about ranked (thinking about plat+ here in general, not saying lower elo doesn't have concerns or anything). Breaking the game to make pro play more "enjoyable" to watch doesn't help that either.

What was their excuse in november. What about octoboer. september? I always love how Riot has an excuse for every month of the year for why they aren't doing anything. Oh we waiting for mid season patch. Oh competitive worlds or something u no we can't change stuffs. oh preseason coming up it's k guyz.

FUCK

OFF

Game development was a mistake. In no other industry where you get paid a salary can you just skip out on a month and do literally fucking nothing and have some kid come white knight defense for why it's christmas therefore you get to not work for 31 days.

Saianna2 votes

Maybe they take partime jobs where they have to act like kids on forum and whiteknight any comments regarding their primary job?

Sraeg20131 votes

Watch out. Moderators are Riot shills and ban people for using terms such as "Jew", "white knight" or "SJW".

^ Just look at the huge outcry when people said "fire the balance team", people reacted as if we called for another holocaust. I say what i always said, if literally anyone else would work in the free market economy like a lot do in the gaming industry we had unemployment rates of 50% because companies would kick them the fuck out and replace them with people willing to work. I'm not saying noone is working at riot but i can't think of any other branch that allows you to literally do nothing for a month.

It feels like Riot is on a permanent Christmas break these days.

Barcid6 votes

Let me give you a scenario:

I have a perfectly passable and functioning project that I have to present to people.

October ends, we're going into holiday season.

I decide to take a hammer to my project and destroy the entire thing because I feel like redoing it right now.

I proceed to find little time to really work on it and kind of fall off in interest because it's the holidays.

My boss asks where the hell the project is a month and a half later.

I say, "I mean, come on. It's the holidays. Do you really expect me to have it ready right now? Wait until after Christmas."


Would you explain to me how I would not be considered a complete fuckface in this scenario?

Like, this is even ignoring the plethora of issues before they even released the patch.

revert Fizz as christmas present tho imo :]

bañ25 votes

why? fuck fizz. honestly. such an annoying piece of shit. im glad he's in the dumps.

Velzard of Koz4 votes

According to leagueofgraphs, up to Plat+ he has decent pickrate (8-6%) with good winrate (circa 51%), he may be considered weak in Dia+ where he has meh pickrate (4.4%), but even then still 50% winrate (all regions, Mid role). He may not be broken, but with that pickrate and winrate, he doesn't seem like something I'd call "dumpstered" either. With Penns' comments, it's mostly that he preferred the old one, not neccesarily that the new one would be dumpstered and he wanted buffs. Although he does call for buffs now and then, I consider that mostly comedy.

bañ2 votes

i dont care about pick rates or winrates his kit is so annoying to play against.

Velzard of Koz1 votes

Yeah I understood that point (and I cannot argue against that since, despite the fact I do play Fizz now and then, I hate playing against both him and Yasuo, so I understand the "kit hatred" concept), just wanted to clarify that he doesn't really feel "dumpstered" to me.

But fizz is not in the dumps. People don't understand how broken dark harvest is on fizz. And that's why you see so many fizz's with electrocute.

After how broken this preseason has been, shit from LAST SEASON still isn't fixed, the BE and OE bullshit, those lazy idiots didn't deserve Christmas, they are on the naughty list.

Abibyama3 votes

Too much to expect from gameplay

We gotta complain man

AirKingNeo3 votes

Why didn't they fix it before Christmas? Why not before that? Why will they refuse to fix it after Christmas?

Have the days off, that's fine. Everyone needs it. Just actually do your job on the days you are working.

LordGeovanni1 votes

ha days you are working. I have no doubt they do work for maybe 2 hours a in a work day. but its all behind the secnes work that rarely makes it to pbe none the less live servers unless its some ranged adc buff.

Riot is having Christmas holidays since early september I guess, if people were so lazy at their job like they do they would be fired ASAP.

GayFluffyUnicorn1 votes

I really can't say anything else than that they are actually lazy as fuck. What have they done in three months now? Yes they worked half a year on the new runes, fine but then? Literally change like 20 numbers and pray it'll work out. In those three months they could have already made new keystones for the champs lacking decent options (hello fighters), reworked PtA for example, made a whole another tree. Nothing happened. What do they say? "preseason is for testing things out and shaking things up". What do they do? Release a dumpster fire together with the mess that piled up the year before, swap out a few numbers and call it a day. Those guys EASILY earn 5-10k a MONTH as developers and software engineers.

Durzaka1 votes

While you might be right right NOW, that doesnt change the fact they have basically ignored the state of the game since preseason and done nothing to actually balance shit that is a problem.

T4underbolt1 votes

Christmas has nothing to do with it. They changed nothing for too long. Excuses left and right why they cant do this and that. All the balance changes either doing nothing to stop broken champs from being oppressive or screwing champion compptetely without any reasonable argument. And now pre season mess hasnt been fixed for a month and its patch 8.1 soon.
