This is the direction that the game has been headed toward for a long time. At first I thought it was somewhat unintentional, but over the last couple of season it is very clear that this is a deliberate path that Riot wishes to take the game. It's much more flashy to have one-shots or quick teamfights as opposed to longer battles and extended skill contests.
Apparently e$ports really are being treated like regular sports... more offense, less defense, make everything faster!
There's really no need to complain about it, because Riot isn't listening, they haven't been and they won't... this is the vision they have for their game so if you want to keep playing you might as well accept it.
Seems like someone at riot leaked some transcripts of meetings before preseason.
The damage isn't the only high thing it seems
Community: too much damages! Also community: not enough flat ap on mage items! [zombie-brand-clap]
This reminds me of the burning dog meme.. with riot in the middle going "this is fine" as everything screws up around them because of how much their damage has increased
