is league made for people to just complain?

for the past two seasons I've been playing a lot more of league and I've noticed that people really like to play a game of round robin where they complain about something when someone is changed back when cinder hulk was introduced all i ever heard was "tank meta is annoying", "why are there so many tanks" "you can't kill them and they do so much". when the juggernaut buff was out all i heard was "ugh i hate darius, he 5 hits you and you can't kill him" or "Garen is so annoying cause he has sustain and a true damage ultimate (meanwhile cho is sitting in the back laughing" and now that there is a marksman buff (which i am super excited to play Quinn) all i am seeing is people talk about the cinderhulk meta and how mages are going to just die. Is there anything we can do to stop this? or is that just a thing i should just starting to ignore but hey! at least the league community isn't as super sour like the smite community

It depends on who you're around I'd say. No matter where you go you'll always find people who are unhappy that something isn't made specifically for them and them alone. I personally just try to enjoy the game as much as I can while not listening to those kinds of naysayers very much, if at all.

thats called the meta, people hate it lets make an example, totally hypothetical this is how metas are born, lets take a new adc coming out -they start nerfing armor -they buff damage items -new champ gets released -people complain its broken -start new meta with new champion (doesnt have to be a new release champion, could move to tanks in general) -nerf any champion who used the new broken items -nerf the item

thats the constant cycle, but that cycle takes months....take feral flare as a perfect example, we could all agree it was a broken item...they nerfed around 8 champions because of that item before they nerfed and totally deleted the item leaving those champs trash....then they nerfed stuff like armor, buffed dmg, then came out with an adc....rinse...then they nerfed dmg and buffed armor, then came out with a new tank....etc...etc...

its all about $, if the champion isnt broken on release most people wouldnt buy em so they keep em broken for at least the first 2 weeks (they have a pbe, so nothing should ever come out broken...be it item or champion...thats the point of pbe, to test lol nobody is making them rush out things before they are tuned, they just want $$$)

people dont bitch to bitch lol they bitch because usually something is wrong...but riot puts almost no thought into things before they do them and they have a REAL hard time admitting they were wrong no matter how blatantly obvious it was...on top of the fact that they ignore any thread that makes sense about said broken champion/item/etc

thats just riot man,once the money started rolling in the care for players went out the window
