You wrote it like YOU would leave. The sarcasm in this is hard to read through. The motivational speech

Honestly, the current snowball meta bullshit is worse than it has ever been.

It's not fun, it's not enjoyable and creates extra toxicity.

It makes it so once you get behind, it's impossible to recover. Which isn't fun.

If the state of the game is snowball and snowball is unfun why start a match where there is a 50% chance its gonna be unfun you should by very nature of match makeing be winning a little off of 50% of your games. What does sabotaging further gain you other than a guarenteed loss you dont save time you just gurantee that the time you already spent is a waste. (its not impossible to recover it just takes a shit ton of effort and skill and if you arent trying to raise your skill and challenge yourself this is the wrong genre of game for you. The challenge is supposed to be the fun. although i agree the snowball is too hard.)

thats just it, people dont WANT a challenge. They are Cod Kids who only care about having 9 other people to pat them on the back and tell them how "OP CARRY" they are. They couldnt give a damn about the rest of thier team, this is just another platform for them to try and inflate thier ego. They dont want to work with thier team. So if the match doesnt instantly snowball in thier favor so they can puff out thier chest and say "look how Im better than u" then they decide they are just gonna afk, cuz its not like they want to work with thier team.

The league community has the mentality of a preschooler. Anything more difficult than "Get a pentakill in my sleep" is too hard for them. and working with thier team? well that means they have to share the kills. That means less kills for THEM.

TL:DR. They dont want to work with thier team, they dont want a challenge. they just want people to stroke thier ego and tell them how OP they are. Any challenge is undesirable to them.

I like getting fed, I like snowballing. But it used to be a game could be prolonged and won in end game. It's extremely rare that a scenario like that is even possible. EXTREMELY RARE that it occurs. But why fix something for us? Why not just assume "everyone's going through it so it doesn't matter"? Because then it's a negative experience for EVERYONE. I'm sick of being forced to 1v5 or lose every fucking game.

im not saying it doesnt need to be fixed but part of the reason why come backs arent happening is that less than 14% of games I personally play in will have anyone besides me trying to come back 2 games in the past 4 months with more than half the team trying to come back when behind instead of giving up and going to the next one. its not that you cant stall to late game people dont want to get to late game even though they are behind because they didnt snowball so why try

It's not just attitudes... RIOT specifically changed the game length because they wanted a short match duration. The result was that they made the "winning" team have such a huge advantage that to most people it wasn't worth stalling the game out. It's easiest to see in an adc that's behind. Your attacks do nothing to enemy champions and very little to super minions. It's like fighting a mountain half the time. I can completely understand why people don't want to subject themselves to that kind of abuse. But that's my entire point. It USED to be that a single player trying very hard with great skill could overcome those odds. But it's not possible anymore.

RIOT's changes over the past year have been nothing but FUBAR. I don't see how a company that made such a great game has released horrid champions that need instant nerfing and still need nerfing after the first round, updates their client and fails to do anything more than make it look prettier and eliminates the ability for 1 player to carry the game from behind. It's very frustrating because they look at their critics as toxic and their supporters as sheep. Means they do whatever they feel like doing and play pretend when telling us it's by popular demand.

If you donjt have the attitude to want to play the game whether you are snowballing or not you dont play to try to stall out enemies advantages and you dont get to even up later. The game as a whole is easier as far as turents and free damage but season 2-3 assassins could snowball games far better than any one role does now. closest thing to them is mages most of which have high damage scaleing and base damage low cooldown spells and mage items haveing as much hp as tank items and healing them for spamming spells which they do anyway

You can like getting fed and snowballing but you have to realise that that isnt how the game is intended to be played and isnt supposed to happen in the majority of cases. and people will give up from early and intentionally fed when the enemy is ahead and afk for the majority of their games just go get to the minority of games where they get fed early and snowball.
