There are so many old and wise people here.

Think about it.

Every time someone starts a thread in which he/she complaints about the state of the game, it gets swarmed with 'veterans' reminiscing about the 'good old days' of season X. Very often they even use a similar tone of an old person, telling dem youngsters about the glory days of old when towers were quality pieces built to last and baron was an opponent feared by the masses because there were no cheap damage or other slacker tools back then.

This is not critique, just an observation.

It is also a little bit funny because these posts remind me of League's starting period. While most of it is blurry, I still chuckle today when I think of Gankplank's magic crits one shotting people, Katarina's release breaking the community's spirits due to the insane dmg on her ult and Master Yi stomping on noobs (with people complaining about it).

Maybe some of these sound familiar to you. Maybe I'm a teensy bit insinuating that we tend to forget about chronocentrism. None of that matters though. I just wonder what the newest members think about the 'state of the game', after all, they are not biased regarding bygone meta's and playstyles.

And this is why there will never be a legacy server. Nobody would actually like it.

Lol dont age. Lol change. It got good and bad periods of time. Veteran passed through all of them. Freshmen not. Behind a freshman who whine about something now, there are several veterans that eventually passed allready this bad experience without complaining. Hence their suggestions are based on their "old" instinct of dealing with stuff + suggestions on how menaging the frustrtion. It s fact, not complain.

I'm from season 2. Some of it's just rose tinted glasses-- the game is so different things that worked back then probably wouldn't work now, but it's not like there's not stuff that wouldn't be perfect now, or at any time in the last 6 reasons, but was removed regardless.

And, just in general, I think there were aspects of the game that were healthier then. I want to trade early game pressure for gold generation, I could do it with convenient items like HoG/Kage's/Avarice that built into core items, and it wasn't a problem because games were more like 35-40 minutes than 20-25 minutes.
