Unfortunately, I really think I'm done with this game now.

I might keep playing ARAM and watching patch-notes for improvements because I really do enjoy this game when its in a good state, but its been far too long since then.

Its easy to see all of the issues with the game. People talk about it daily. Yet, Riot refuses to do anything to address the large majority of them or if they do anything at all, they don't do enough.

Graves is a perfect example. His tankiness isn't his biggest issue. Its that absolutely INSANE damage he does that almost invalidates melees or short-range mages mid-late game unless they're pure armor-tank. His tankiness on top of it just makes it more oppressive because you can't effectively punish the over-aggressive plays ALL of the Graves players seem to make, especially with current ADC itemization. I'm not even going to mention Graves players that are actually good with him. He's top dog in 3 roles ffs. That really says something, yet they only give him love-taps still every other patch. At the very least make it so max range autos do a fraction of the damage of other marksmen.

Paper towers are another issue. In other seasons they've even addressed this when towers became too trivial. No idea why they won't this season.

Extremely long death timers are another. Nobody enjoys these, and they make games close out when they DEFINITELY shouldn't. It makes everything so anti-climactic. League is basically laning, roaming, then first actual teamfight, as opposed to picks, decides the game. What makes it worse is that most teamfights are decided at champion select since some champions are so insanely strong.

Only 3 bans are another issue. Not because 3 bans is too low of a number, but because we have to use those 3 bans for OP champions, and then there are even more on top of that. We can't use them for what they're supposed to be for: strategy and preventing counter-picks.

There are just so many things wrong with the game now that the MYMU doesn't even have me excited anymore. I'm not even going to wait for it anymore.

The catering to casual, fast-paced play is fine, but please, take the time to stabilize the game. We all know you're spending most of your resources on LCS and champions/skins to make money, but the gameplay that people used to enjoy is important too.

There are more "I'm Quitting LoL" posts than ever before, and Rioters are just turning a blind eye to it. This game is collapsing in its current state, and they don't seem to care as long as the casuals who don't have much investment in the state of the game keep buying skins and watching LCS.

Its Star Craft 2 all over again. They pulled out too late, and Riot's about to make the same mistake.

I'm not watching the downfall of this game first-hand anymore. Its too depressing.

I already kind of regret the decision. I've really enjoyed this game in the past. But its foolish to stay on a sinking ship due to pride or nostalgia.
