Pre-Season

I sure hope this only lasts the pre season but as of right now summoners isn't exactly fun to play right now, adc jungle duo adc bot lane even adcs in the top lane and AP varus in the mid lane, not to mention with the new mastery's having no variety, went from 20 mastery pages to 4, and now there's not even champion variety, just ADC's.

I know its the pre-season but i really expected a little more than this, i have high hopes for the ACTUAL season, and hope this isn't just how the game will be now.

Fingers crossed, as of right now ill stick to aram casuals till the ADC thing blows over if it ever does that is, and i also hope for a little more mastery variety, because these new ones a child can figure out in 2 minutes.

I am only whining right now because this pre-season worries me with the mastery's, I quit playing WoW a long time ago when they screwed over the talents and made their game a 12 year old selfie tumblr friendly panda fest, i mean come on... 1 talent every 15 levels and you only get to pick one? and now here comes league following the exact footsteps, pick 1 thing every tier of mastery's? sounds a little bit familiar to me. I watched 1 great game die, and now i see potential in this one following the exact same thing.

I'm sure the ADC thing will blow over in the actual season(i hope) but this mastery thing seems pretty dead set, as RIOT isn't exactly known for taking back something new that they put in the game, i mean they completely ignored the whole Mord thing completely, so i don't see them changing mastery's back or tweaking them in the near future, there goes specific champion mastery variation.

But hey, what do i know, it's only pre-season, let's see how RIOT handles all these new things and how they handle the changes, fingers crossed.

I'm not having as much a problem with the ADC changes as I am with the ridiculous way they are now handling gold. CS and towers grant a lot more gold now so even if its not an AD champion they just snowball out of control. Add onto it that you are forced to stay in lane with the enemy snowballer because your towers are about as useful as a pair of pajamas on Neptune. Towers are pretty much just ways for snowballers to get more gold now. They are not for defending with.

That's very true, i'm seeing a lot of the whole once a team is 2 or 3 kills ahead, they stay ahead and can just turret dive mean while their minions are super beasts that destroy turrets on their own without you even being in the lane, I don't really like how this is set up so far, they basically want the early game to decide to whole entire game from then on, there is so little chance to ever make a come back.

They probably did this for LCS type stuff, it's all for entertainment and they want even earlier turret dives, i wouldn't be surprised if we started to see level 1 dives for first blood, meanwhile it totally messes up the game for regular players, meh let's just hope this all gets tweaked in the real season.
