generic "im quitting" thread
it's been fun, but this game is going to shit. since preseason there have been changes added every patch that make no goddamn sense and i would rather invest my time into games that are good. as someone that's been playing for 4 years i've seen a lot of stupid fucking changes but never so many at the same time. and i don't see the fun in playing anymore.
first of all, the vision changes. stealth wards have been in the game for as long as i've been playing, and, i would assume they've been in the game for as long as it has existed. taking them out was just a terrible idea. the only wards now are pink and blue, which are visible, or yellow trinket which is on a long cooldown and easily taken out because everyone has pinks now. vision changes are .. just awful in every way and as a support main im pissed because i'm now everyone's ward bitch.
and then there's the dynamic queue.. honestly, i haven't even played ranked yet, but i don't plan on it at all until solo q is back. usually i only play about 40 ranked games a season, just to climb to whatever goal i have in mind, but this year i was really going to focus on learning and climb to diamond. but now what's the point? i'll be constantly matched against people who are more coordinated than me, and your rank isn't even going to matter anymore because so many people will join teams of 4 people more skilled than them and get carried. i would rather be low gold and know i earned it than be high diamond and know i got carried.
on top of that, games are usually total stomps. dragons are barely worth contesting, rift scuttler is underwhelming, and everyone panics as soon as baron spawns and makes terrible calls. everything is pretty much always centered around baron now (at my elo that is)
i see the same ~30 champs every game and everyone just plays whatever is currently broken instead of what's fun. even i'm guilty of this! i started playing these no skill champs because i'm tired of seeing them every game. i picked yi yesterday even though i've never played him because i fucking hate him, just because he wasn't banned and i didn't want the enemy team getting him. and then i realized i didn't deserve to win while playing yi. so i farmed. and did nothing. i hate yi..
i think this game has a lot of potential but riot keeps trying to fix things that aren't broken. i don't want to give up all hope that it can be a good game again before the new season even starts, but if this shit isn't fixed by then.. blade and soul is coming out and i am gone.
