So Nexus Blitz is gone, Twisted Treeline is gone, Dominion is gone, RGMs are basically nonexistent, and the unique PvE modes show up once or twice and then are gone forever...
Seriously? One of the largest games in the world and we only have 2 gamemode choices? One of which is plagued by specifically tailored accounts which gives them an advantage? And on top of that, we don't even have the option to play these maps/gamemodes in custom games?
What a joke, honestly.
Nexus Blitz "a couple times a year"? Retiring Twisted Treeline? Yikes, riot. Big, big yikes.
"champs that were almost free wins now had to work a little harder"
Yeah, he isn't wrong about that. A "LITTLE" harder.. which means having to poke and hit the enemy champion one more time than they had to in the past while being completely, 100% safe from the other side of the map.
What a complete joke.
I don't even know why I bother waiting for Riot to detail why they made the changes they made, it's usually void of any human frustration of actually playing the game and full of data and graphs. Riot treats this game like it's AI vs AI, not human vs human players and the frustration humans deal with in a random game mode.
Removing more modes without even enabling them for customs? Things like these are why the game is dying.
HOLD UP
NO MENTION OF ASCENSION?
WE HAVEN'T HAD A GOOD SCRIM MODE OTHER THAN ASCENSION AND YOU PRETEND IT NO EXIST
NOONE LIKES THE AR IN THE URF, WE JUST WANT TO FUCK AROUND
BUT YOU DO ALL THE FUCKING AROUND, DO WORK, STOP PLAYING VIDEO GAMES IN YOUR OFFICE ALL DAY AND ACTUALLY MAKE A FUCKING GAME ALREADY
RIOT WOULD BE TEN TIMES BETTER IF THEY FIRED HALF OF THEIR STAFF AND ACTUALLY MADE PEOPLE DO THEIR FUCKING JOBS INSTEAD OF THEM PLAYING DOTA2 IN THE OFFICE ALL DAY
