Could we let every player find their own way which they can play?

Hello,

I do wonder why the community has been twisted into intolerant fanatic society which attacks everybody doing things differently unless they belong to the Gods of LOL. Why community has taken stance only LCS players can have any opinion of the game and rest of the community should worship them without thinking, as LCS has given us divine meta to follow without thinking.

I do really miss the friendly and tolerant environment of the season 1 when people were allowed to try to do things differently. When lanes were not fixed the way they are now. When duo jungle or no jungle at all was one option for the game depending on champions and game events. I do really miss this time. And sad fact is Riot has sided with intolerant, and has started to reinforce the one-minded way of thinking. Reworks are part of this, as every single reworked champion loses options they had.

I do understand this tolerant environment is hard for new players, as the game is really complex, and taking everything into account like you should, is really taxing and requires hard work. And it requires hard work not only learn your own champions, but every champion in the game, as you can be forced to play with or against any champion in the game.

As the game is team game first and foremost, focus on personal score makes me really sad. It only proves that community cannot understand that game is team game first and foremost. And this mean game loss can be caused by someone other than you. That does not mean you cannot cause game to lose , but for some weird reason adcs never think they ruined the game. The talk that you should not blame others seems not to be applied to adcs, as minmaxers see adc too important, without understanding adc scaling is not at all as important as community thinks. Adc getting gold is important, but the fact is it is not the only important thing.

Other thing which makes me sad: most people get mad when I give them factual gold gain and how feeding is defined when it is done by facts, not by feeling. For some reason, community wants to embrace the alternate factual reality where higher amount of deaths than kills is sign of feeding. And most of the community seems to either ignore, or even despise assists. The latter is really bad is it show how little respect community following the divine worship of personal score value team work. Assists is the most important stat in the team fight environment, as only one member of team can get kills, but assists show that you have participated. I know reason for this is simple-minded focus on gold amount of kill compared to assists.

They weren't that tolerant. I remember getting flack for my tiamat ashe. Maybe that was season 2.

More on topic, I think your average league team suffers from not having a coach. A good coach is able to get an entire team following the same plan. Any flaws in the strategy become directed at the coach instead of your team mates.
