Just QQ

I can't play this game anymore. The meta is ruled by tanks and cc which riot seems to not care to balance at all. When a pair of carries can't kill a tank and get double killed I just can't. The game has become too "safe" for my taste. It's just a bunch of wet noodle fights that only get exciting when the carries get involved then it becomes a wet noodle fight again. I do believe that Cinderhulk ruined ranked and normal play. It obviously needs to be balanced since I haven't seen a competitive or ranked match where one of the junglers doesn't have it. I hate that damage and poke comps have this guillotine hanging over their head, and that guillotine is tanks. You have to win before the tanks somehow manage to outscale the hell out of your damage. But whatever riot, enjoy your boring noodle fights. And don't even get me started on high mobility champs...

Now since normals and ranked appear to be ruined for me, I turned to ARAM. Good ol' ARAM. The "fun" game mode.... not anymore. Heals and CC equal instant win, and that new summoner spell just accelerates the clock for the winning team since now they can stick to you like stink on a Nunu main. It wasn't necessary and I don't know what you were thinking adding this garbage. Sometimes you just had to admit that your comp was trash and move on. Now not only is your comp trash but everyone just becomes a damage dealing tank and full team dives you under turret for undeserved wombo combos. The fun has officially been drained from the game mode. The community also seems to be to blame. Queue dodgers make me want to rip my hair out, so you didn't get the champ you want? Suck it up buttercup, you can QQ when you lose/surrender.

In short, the game that I dedicated plenty of time and money into has become unplayable and I don't foresee it being fixed for a while.

inb4: QQ, cri moar noob, salty, anything involving item build, and any other flames... actually screw it. Give me your worst, you bunch of keyboard warriors and Nunu/Yi/Garen/WW mains. You'll only be reinforcing my point about the community. EZ GG Riot.

I like the fact every fight isn't over in .001 seconds and whoever can face roll the keyboard faster wins... The "Wet Noodle" Fight is something which makes laning fun. It actually gives you time to think and out smart your opponent. Lets you play around the creeps, and gives more time for human error and out thinking to shine. This creates a level of play that generates 100x more skill based game-play than "he who slams his face against the keyboard faster wins" like it used to be.

but really......tanky dudes isnt a problem.... they're stronger early game, but will always fall later on the game. However, they will always out trade you unless you actually utilize your ur damage ;p

e.g if you're range.....so if you're adc, you'll need to kite....if you're a mage....do ur burst, then kite etc etc.

if its a tanky champion like mundo buying tank, either ignore him....try to do as much daamage for the team before you die(its ok to die dawg, its a team game) or you can try to kite him and keep him busy/bring him down with ur team.....if its a non tanky champion buying full tank like kha or xin...then he'll simply lack in good base damage or utility that a real tank would bring, and be more squisher.....

but ofcourse if somone on the enmey team gets fed or you guys simply lack damage because of bad csing/team comp then its a different story, at this point your team will simply need to adapt to the game.....build accordingly, position accordingly, group early etc etc.
