League is GOAT man you can't deny that. It will probably remain relevant forever.

appealing to the dumbest people aka MOBA players

No clue.
Last time I played nobody in the game was happy. All the people complaining about this and that and the game being shitty.
Hell, if you watch any medium streamer they also complain about the game all the time but they say if they don't play League they lose viewers.

But user, moba games offer the highest expression of skill and intelligence.

What are they gonna do once they run out of champions to rework?

>lol streamers
have sex

only virgins on mongolian cartoon give a fuck about shit like this
chads watch what they like

They constantly pump out "content" in the form of skins and new champions while relegating the balance of the game.

I love how much league makes Yea Forums seethe
>Hurr it's easy casual baby garbage
>Y-yeah I'd be challenger if I wanted to I just don't like it!

>still can't have pricepools for shit and gets BTFO by a dying game every single year

How desperate are they to make old players come back on their client with autochess? They were never able to balance their game, never forget that.

I like playing yuumi to attach to a teammate and go afk

last time I met someone who plays league was the tranny I fucked 3 years ago

>not only that but appealing to the dumbest contingent of MOBA players as well.

Pro tip: below gold everyone is miserable and bad at the game

that's in asia and the game has sucked since season 3 and if you are a moba player you should rethink your life decisions

/thread

the game currently has the highest champion variety its ever had and the lowest winrate divergence between top tier and bottom tier picks

League suckks but it is now 2019 and for a game that has been shit since season 3 as you say and dying for the last 5 years or so it's doing pretty fucking good.

>t. Irelia, Aatrox, Akali, Yasuo main
you're not fooling anybody.

Not that guy but I pretty much quit when I found out they can't balance their way out of a paperback after they kneejerk nerfed several champions for dumb fucking reasons like "this support went solo mid in a pro game and won the lane, lets destroy it".
Nevermind that, despite endless nerfs to evelin, when someone found out that if you took the worst summoner spell on the worst champion it suddenly made her viable so they gave her an extra helping of nerfs and deleted revive from the game.

Guinsoo is a fucking hack.

How the fuck do you climb out of Bronze being a Support main? How do you climb at all as a support main? I manage to make decent plays, with high assists and low deaths every game but I always have at least two people on my team that just die over and over and don’t play defensive when they are behind. So many Defeats. I just wanna be able to Solo Queue and win some games as a Support Main. Hell my team usually don’t even make big plays unless i’m there to initiate or counter initiate.

pray that you get an adc that isnt complete ass

>4 balanced champions that allow for skill expression but are also fair to play against
what's the problem?

I wonder then, when I turn off ad block I only see ads for this game

What champions do you usually pick?

don't play support, not even high elo support mains when leveling and climbing new accounts play support. dont play adc either. if you somehow get rolled into the support role, pick something that can carry and steal every kill

That’s what fighting games are for.

Sometimes I feel like the only person who actually likes playing LoL. Everyone I know who has played it for as long as I have has begun to hate the game for some dumbass reason. I blame the autistic competitive scene and the amount of toxic E-celebs who are sick of the game but only play it because their addicted and for the money. Influencers ruin EVERYTHING. I just have fun on LoL and it's probably people like me who are going to keep playing the game longer than the competitive losers who sweat over a video game.

That's mostly reflex and memorization

league is not fun its competitive
i only play it for the ladder

Thresh, Nami, Sona, Braum, Rakan, Galio, Soraka

If i’m not Support then i’m not playing the game. Fuck big dick carrying. I want to Support mother fucker.

It does a fantastic job of appealing to your inner masochistic tendencies, which keep you addicted. Despite the fact that wins only trigger a fraction of the emotion that a loss does.

FACT: MOBA players are latent homosexuals and cuckolds

>Thresh
Ok, if you're good enough you can "carry" your adc with good hooks and a little bit of burst
>Nami
Avoid. She's kinda reliant on your adc.
>Sona
Avoid. She's shit.
>Braum
Top tier
>Galio
eh
>Soraka
Very reliant on your teammate, avoid in low elo.

You should definitely try Brand if you have a feeling your adc/whole team will fuck it up.
Also Leona is a CC machine. If you have a decent teammate you can ravage the enemy's ass.

It's frecuently updated, free and runs on a toaster. So I can easily play with my friends and co-workers after work even the fags with a mac.

I looked up Best Supports 2019 and those were the ones I found.

>46%, 48.7%, 44%, 48.3%

big wew

rework them again

>run out of champions to rework?
Ryze just got another rework on pbe

>lolbabby
>thinks balance is obtained by looking at winrates
brainwashed by riot devs

Maybe they're played in high elo but i don't think they will help you in low elo

That makes sense. Name me some good low elo supports. I’m guessing champs like ap support champs like Brand

Because there is something in the game for every type of player. Whether you're competitive oriented and want to hit the Ranked grind, or you prefer to play silly builds and fuck around in normals with friends, there is something for you.

also despite the memes I really like all of the reworks and balance changes. They do a good job communicating why they're making these various changes, and I also like their events that they do every so often. It's comfy :)

They catered to zoomers whose parents will give them money

play dota 2, you'll be at home

>Stopped playing League 4 years ago.
>Still watch Worlds every year and sometimes put ImaQTpie stream on the background.

I don't know about playing but I still have fun watching it.

why would you need money for a free game?

i haven't played in like 4 or 5 years.

i watch LCK and worlds / MSI every year.
its a good esport.

not as good as broodwar tho

It's fun sometimes

Marketing

The game was always trash, but even before the game was released they used really really shitty business practices and marketing schemes to leech off its fanbase.

Fun Fact: 90% of all hero designs in league were ripped straight from dota-allstars hero suggestion subforum.

rip

Simplistic playstyle with a pretty high skill ceiling, also enough characters and role types that you can basically play without ever getting bored. I dont play much anymore, but i used to play Vel'Koz religiously

>Lets take the worlds most popular mod
>And make it a bunch of pop culture memes fighting eachother
Gee I wonder why

>get suggestions
>use them
wow!

The Guinsoo handbook
>Other people make stuff
>Port it to my game
Same drama happened with dota allstars itself, since dota allstars was just guinsoo porting all the various dota spinoff heroes into one game, and didn't get fixed until icefrog took over.

The game has interesting characters. People get easily attached to them and cares about them. They get proud of being mains of the characters they love.

It is the same power that Pokémon or Overwatch has.

Still scummy business practice, turn the worlds biggest dota fansite into a league advertisement, then use its assets to make your own game.

No more than most games I reckon. I play mobas and fighting games, neither too seriously. Fighting games also rely a lot on mind games and you don't really have to worry about team mates or anything. Mobas, you do and that can be exhilarating with friends or downright disparaging on solo queue.
