I remember back in season 3 when I skipped homework to play this game.
Now every time I open the in-game client i get the urge to do my homework instead.
Thank you Rito.

Maybe this was Riot's plan for this season all along. They understand that a lot of players are in college, and want them to succeed. Being concerned about our education, they decided to make season 6 so bad that we'll want to avoid playing altogether. I guess I was wrong, maybe there is something positive coming from season 6.
Does this actually work? I've been procrastinating a project for three weeks and I'm getting a little desperate
This is incredibly relevant. Not only am I making 5 A's and a B this semester/season (yes i'm taking 6 classes), i'm also graduating AND have a serious offer from HP Enterprise lined up. League turning to crap has actually made my life better. So all in all, good job Riot! Your helping me to succeed so I can buy a better computer so i'm not stuck playing this on my dinosaur!
lately i'm enjoying more smite than lol
bye lol
What if I told you, you just got bored of the game?
LOL
This made me giggle :)
Bring back SOLO QUEUE Riot
or, maybe you just grew up a bit
I don't understand this whole "league is falling out" talk. There is nothing unusual about this season. All seasons (with a few early ones as a possible exception) have had massive early changes. Ever time there are doomsayers and look where we are now. Remember when the jungle was buffed, limiting the junglers. Many people claimed that was the end of LOL. Another possibility is that many players move on from one game to another as time goes on. We all don't still play the games we did 10 years ago. Most people rotate in and out of the game. As for other MOBAs: DOTA is too complected for entry and has no real extrinsic goal. HOTS has a limited roster and is restricted by the themeing and Smite is hardly in the same game category. The camera differences drastically change the mood and theme of the game, turning smite into an action game with same strategy elements and some MOBA elements. I'm not against Smite as an action game, i'm against it as a MOBA (and the concept is a bit unoriginal).
Back in S2 I skipped studying for Finals to play.
Granted if I were still in school I'd probably do the same now.
Yeah season 6 made me study for the SAT.
Season 3...my first, and so far best season.
R.I.P.
I still do it
I honestly cannot fathom how you could prefer the state of the game in season three to it is now. There were SO MANY huge issues that made the game less fun: -First blood determined the winner of something like 80% of the games. You die first, anywhere on the map, you lose. -Supports were glorified ward machines deliberately denied any real source of gold income. Assists did not give much gold, and you could only practically get one gold income item. Even at the professional level, supports almost always ended up 2-4 levels behind everyone else, so their ability to contribute was even more limited with time. -Jungle was a second top lane, because clearing was so easy for anyone with low-CD spells or decent auto attacks. ADCs even went jungle sometimes, just so your team could have the extra bit of tower pressure. -Assassins were just as good as they are now, arguable better. So nobody who complains about Zed nowadays gets to approve. Oh yeah, and there were more of them because of DFG. And on DFG: The sheer amount of damage it enabled meant that even tanks weren't safe. Ahri, Fizz, Kassadin, Akali, even Lissandra could 100-0 anyone without large amounts of MR, and have a pretty good shot at it even if they did. -Less counterplay. LeBlanc, Talon, and Kassadin all had targeted silences and all did tons of damage. If they got anywhere near your squishes, they died. Period. -Kassadin: Pre-rework, he had a friggin 80% ban rate. You could play "Kassadin Chicken" to force the other team to ban him, because if you had him, you pretty much won. He was a monster late game, and had a safe, even oppressive early game. -Akali: Unless you played a hard counter, AND had good enough jungle support to kill her several times before six, she would kill your entire team. -Support was for the guy with the slowest computer. The above factors meant that nobody wanted to play support. It just wasn't fun. -Things look better now. There have been a lot of noticeable efforts to make the champions and environment look better. From the Summoner's Rift update in season five, to all of the slash and texture updates, League no longer looks like something from the early part of last decade.
The game has come so far since season three. I can't claim it is perfect yet, but season six is the best state this game has been in since I have started playing (in season three).
Cheers, -Nixtarma
Haha nice post :P. I get it. But yeah, dang leave buster and retarded thing called a meta is a game ruiner. Same with the new interface, champion changes and graphics.
I still skip homework to play lol, no bully.
Guess my homework is next level boring.
Back in season 3, I had a rough time not being forced from games. It took literal months to get a schedule of when I can and cannot play this game. I had (quite frankly) 4 week long bans put on me in the first 5 weeks I got into LoL. And this kept happening because Rito didn't try and fix the original system so that it would stop this. I had gone 3 months with no leave, then one lag that sends me out of a game later I get a ban for a week again. In total, on this account, I had about 7-10 week long bans until the new system came in. That's really about 2 and a half months of IP I never got. I never got any warnings, nor hour long bans. Always lasted a week long. That's around 30,100 IP I could had used. I might even be done getting all the champion by now if not for the constant week long bans I didn't always deserve (some of them, I'll understand, but most were just stupid and I even went 8 months with no LB and then one time I had to go and I got banned). I even got so desperate, if class were about to start, I would still play until we either lost or won. I just didn't want to lose a week because of the dumb rules. Now, I only need to wait about 20 minutes a few times, which isn't hard on me because I manage time very well now.
I always knew Riot was a good company. :^)
Good . .memory??
I FEEL SO DAMN RELATED except for I prefer Season2
lmao
Well for me i aced my mid-term exams in college.
Yeah, I used to go to lengths and sacrifice to play, but every since the Morde screw-up, I haven't liked anything they've done and find it hard to convince myself to even log on.
This was too funny.
