The pacing of games currently is way too fast

Junglers are still leveling at an exponential rate, which is a big part of the problem. As a result, snowbally junglers or farm heavy junglers can gank or power farm for 20 minutes and basically end the game by 15-20 minutes by ganking or emerging from the jungle 20 minutes with levels/gold advantages across the board, win one teamfights, take Baron and push to win.

As a result, this has made the game very early game focused and it makes who you play and what you build extremely linear. This isn't good balance nor is it fun. It makes the game less interesting when 20 minutes in, you're already knocking on somebodies inhib towers.

There are other problems too, some items need to be removed or nerfed but they don't contribute to this nearly as much as the power junglers have currently and how utterly laughable it is to take towers.

That is what people want. The game to end @20

This is heavily exaggerated. I would argue average game length is UP overall this pre-season from end of season 6.

It's not, games even in mid plat-low diamond are being played out significantly faster than what we saw at the end of season 6.

Evidence. You can't just come onto the boards spew crap and then get mad when people objectively with the same evidence as you disagree.

They recently nerfed power-farm junglers, at the start of preseason. Everything's alright.
