Had really bad luck in matchmaking. Also the game isn't banning trolls/afk. Realized I could be playing more fun stuff that wasn't that much time consuming. After one year without league I can say I made the wise choice.

i have been playing for 8 years and i can personally list and remember the total of maybe 45 games out of 20,000 that i’ve had an afk on my team. trolls even less.

everybody wants to win so idk whats with the hivemind of saying “i have trolls and afk on my team!” no you have FEEDERS and TILTERS. its different

I play Dota 2 because League doesn't have Techies.
You don't know true joy until you've made 5 kills in 5 minutes in lane just suiciding at the enemy.

what do you mean? i regularly play the BEST and MOST POPULAR moba in the world, league of legends

all the champs i like get gutted
>fiora gutted
>irelia gutted
>katarina gutted
>akali on her 8th consecutive patch of nerfs

None of my friends want to play ARAM anymore so fuck it I guess. Might as well uninstall.

Because I have to go to work sometimes

good because all of those champs are cancer

not my fault riot reworked them all
i bet you're some cuck who plays ranged top laners

I'm married to the one moba with SOUL

I started playing in season 2, I got to diamond. I know what I said. Feeders and tiltes can be dealt with and be carried. The problem are trolls and afk. And I told you I don't know if it was bad luck in matchmaking or it was the server I was in. In LAS actual trolls and afk go unpunished and they are a lot more than in other servers because south america is shit. Tried to play in other servers to fight this and the playerbase is a lot better, but ping issues fuck me so I couldn't go higher than diamond, and there they do actually report you for having lag in one teamfight.

The game itself is fun but its like getting locked in a mental ward for an hour with the retards you have to deal with having breakdowns every couple of minutes i only played this shit for so long because all my friends did, i'm so glad i quit this bullshit, i hope the new game they are working is gonna be cool though.

I wouldn't mind learning it, but I'm lazy.

Didn't they get rid of suiciding though?

I installed it once, tried it out and uninstalled for ever. I'm not a fan of "click to walk" style of games and even less a fan of moba's. Not my cup of tea

It's not fun

they are constantly changing it and I can no longer be asked to keep up with the meta

Heroes of newerth was unironically better rofl

Tired of my personal skill level at the game only determining 1/5th of whether I win or not

Good players can solo carry up until challenger with 90% winrate. You are not even remotely near their skill level so you can only win about 50% of your games and lose in higher elo

But I do

because it's nothing but a time killer and if i want to kill time i can have better experience playing some wholesome singleplayer game like skyrim, rimworld etc.

lmao yeah wholesome pupper positive vibes right faggot

Okay. I'll remember that next time I'm playing ADC and my support and jungler feed their asses off rendering me useless for the rest of the game.

Because it's a shitty game.

My friend, who is the sole reason I played in the first place, started playing less and less until he quit. And thank god for that, I never have to touch this shit again now.

>he plays MOBA
acquire better taste zoom zoom pleb

>plays same game over and over for month
>will never become progamer
>even if he becomes progamer it's a shitty life
>live in complete denial about all the time he wastes
does anybody seriously play this regularly unless they secretly believe they will become a pro-gamer at some point?

I play SMITE instead because top-down is literally the shittiest point of view for anything but RTS games.

if you eat every single day why arent you a pro eater bro
why arent you speedrunning your singleplayer games and making thousands in twitch donations a week
dumb fuck

>compares eating with playing video games
holy shit i can not break these layers of delusion. i tried to save you but it's beyond my abilities.

The awful launcher and artstyle

>think you can play psychologist and insert some fucked up system to ban addicts that dont know better
works on you pretty well huh

akali is still really strong you moron

It feels like a clusterfuck of committee-approved ideas, VGUs and champs rather than something organic. I also feel trapped in the game even if we surrender because I can't just leave without getting a strike on my account.

>>even if he becomes progamer it's a shitty life
Even then he'll barely make shit unless he's a Korean or Chinese League player, I was unable to find a single European/American League player in top 400, esportsearnings.com/players/highest-overall
Should have chosen Dota 2 instead.

no response to the 2nd part though

Too much anxiety. I'd like to play, but I get nervous at the thought of messing up and bringing down my team. I'm incredibly invested in this game and its characters, but I can't get over myself.

You fool, let me show you how it's REALLY done.
Ahem...
>food analogy
lmao

i never did speedrunning. i only watch speedrunning when i can't sleep.
if you even have a tiny bit of hope to make money by playing video games, then i feel sad for you. it literally ruins the whole experience.
i mean when you make music or art maybe you could even just live of passive income. but when you are a gamer you literally have to play 9-12 hours a day to keep up and you can never take a break. it's literally hell.
and you also become a total psycho playing the same game for so long.

i dont care
no one said anything about making money
you brought it up

>play one game
>win because two or more people on the other team are fucking retarded
>next game
>lose for the exact same reason

so you play league of legends for fun? you play it over and over again for the experience?
why not play singleplayer games instead and experience something unique?
league of legends is just about dopamine rushes.

I'd rather play Dota

>play game for 40 fucking minutes, winning all the objectives and getting baron

Fpbp

Imagine being this much of a dumb brainlet, talking in anecdotes from your personal experience as an unskilled player when there are hundreds of players who can very consistently reach master or even challenger with 85% winrate or higher

Where are you getting these stats from?

dunning kruger is is a common mental illness almost all gamers have.
most gamers believe they "play a lot" and therefore believe that other gamers are more casual. but in reality there are millions of players who played over 1000 hours of league of legends or even more.
maybe in 2005 you were special when you spent a lot of time playing an esport title, but nowadays it's just common ground.

What will you do to survive? TELL ME

play sona and cancel all your ultis

The hundreds of challenger/LCS players who can consistently climb to challenger solo with insanely high winrates. You don't realize your own shortcomings, flaws, and mistakes. You not only lack the mechanical skill to implement better play, but you don't even know what the better play is in the first place.

After 4-5 years of playing I got permabanned, so I never looked back after that. If I hadn't of been banned I'd still be playing to this day, I just know I would be. That's how addicted I was to the game. I probably spent $100's on skins in the game. I had so many skins, man, it's so depressing knowing I lost all those skins and time I put into that account. Literally 4-5 years down the drain.

They removed Nexus Blitz.

But more importantly, they started becoming extremely Jewish extremely fast. As soon as the first limited edition gold chroma came out and they saw how much money it made, they just kicked the hand-wringing into maximum jew. It felt like every month there was some new event with weeks of quests/missions to do.

Post the source for this info

when i make mistakes i tilt too fucking much

CANCEL THIS DRILL YOU FILTHY SQUISHY

Too many games where I just didn't have any effect on the outcome regardless of how good/bad I did, a lot of characters I enjoyed were intentionally neutered so that nobody would play them or reworked.

>it's so depressing
literally the opposite. i feel very good for you, finally you are free. let that be a lesson to you. never fall for the mmo meme again. don't play competitive games.
if you want multiplayer play something that's more pve.

I hate the mobility creep, enforced meta and current state of balance.

Just go on Twitch/Youtube at any time and watch anyone doing an unranked to challenger climb, there are quite literally dozens of people who can reach challenger with 85% winrate and hundreds who can reach master with 85% winrate. Now of course some people may play a champion or playstyle that is a bit less influential so they can't absolutely pubstomp lower elo so consistently, but they can still almost always reach master with at least a 70% winrate and challenger with about 55-60%. Their winrate declines much less steeply as they climb.

Neither of these cases are you, you are hardstuck and deluded.

>my personal account based on my twitch viewings
that's not a reliable source
>hardstuck
I barely play ranked, maybe once every 4 months I'll play a burst of game but that's all and I'm in plat 2. I could climb higher if I devoted myself but fuck playing this game 6+ hours everyday to get to diamond+. That's not fun to me.

Quit when they sold it to the red chinese and introduced microtransactions and skinner box stuff.

Also no innovation.

It was literally the only game i played from 2011 to 2014.
I dropped it once i realized that i was treating the game like a second job and wasnt even having fun anymore.
I avoid esports like the plague ever since

>that's not a reliable source
I'm not sure if you're trolling but unranked to challenger is very common for high elo streamers. Tarzaned, TF Blade, Rat IRL, Steven's Jax, Metaphor, Yassuo, Midbeast, KingStix, Santorin, Kat Evolved, Pants are Dragon, Forest Within, etc. and there are many more, and that is just streamers, pros can do it just as well or better, they just don't do it as often since it's more for the appeal of the viewers and they would rather have more relevant practice.

>I barely play ranked, maybe once every 4 months I'll play a burst of game but that's all and I'm in plat 2. I could climb higher if I devoted myself but fuck playing this game 6+ hours everyday to get to diamond+. That's not fun to me.
"WTF THIS IS BULLSHIT WHY CAN'T I CLIMB AND CARRY EVERY GAME WHEN I AM BAD AT THE GAME AND NEVER PLAY!!"

It doesn't feel like you can solo carry anymore.

Yeah because players have improved but you are still shit.

Why did they kill her? It wasn’t popular in esports because no one ever wanted it anyway so they killed it. I’ll still never forgive them for making my master skins a cheap nothing skin. Blizzard is peak cancer

Not really, after going back for a bit I talked with a friend who has been playing continuously and he agreed with me that the game has become more team oriented than solo carry oriented. at least compared to previous seasons. This person has reached Diamond in Korea plenty of times

I asked you for a source first.

It's the same thing in Dota, these games keep adding comeback mechanics and other garbage that prevents solo carrying strategies.

mage items are horribly over tuned and MR items fuck absolute dogshit. i cant play any sort of tank or bruiser without getting 0-100 by any mage in the mid game after they get one or two items.

And i've hand-balled it to you. Now you have to be the first to provide source. No backsies.

If you don't provide source then I guess we will all assume you're a low plat shitter.

What does your surrogate friend have anything to do with what I said?

But you've yet to prove that hundreds of people can get to Masters with a 85% plus winrate. Also how do I show I'm not hardstuck?

You admitted you were plat and hardstuck and couldn't ever carry games. When people pointed out that there are dozens of players who can consistently do unranked to challenger with high winrate, you acted bewildered as if you were at peak level of play and no one could be better than you.

You are delusional and need a reality check.

96% winrate unranked to master dumbass.

Why did it have to die, bros? It had actual graphics...

Attached: file.png (960x960, 2.11M)

So? It doesn't change the fact that the game has been changed to prevent solo carrying by making huge gold shut downs for people who are snowballing. Chances are this guy would have a 100% win rate if he's the type of player to build a lead since the start.

I've been playing since 2014 and never got past silver, feelsbadman

i got tired of champs with overblown kits, each becoming stronger and stronger from the get go, only 10 bans at max and proceeding to get bopped by whoever has daddy ritos favour, endless children who ff regardless of how hard you can comeback, the company that doesnt give a shit about their player base anymore since they are raking in that sweet sweet esports cash. teamfights are essentially getting the drop on someone and then FIRE EVERYTHING etc etc.

fuck that.

i went to dota and never looked back. good fucking riddance.

Why would I play it when dota exists?

They reworked Irelia, i didn't liked current meta and wow classic was released which is better by a mile.

Because saying nigger or faggot is much more detrimental to your gaming experience than trolls or feeders.
Mute button? What's that?

>Lost chapter gives you 40 AP, 300 mana, 10% CDR. mana regen, all over 1300 gold and builds into the best items in the game.
>BFS gives you 40 AD for 300 gold builds into good items
>tiamat gives 25 AD, 50% hp regen, better wave clear and slight burst, builds into meh items at best.
and every single other mage items is super overtuned. theres almost no state where mages are weak or bad. instead of nerfing mages like retards, they should be reeling in the items instead.

Players can still win very consistently if they are skilled, there are many streamers who are solo climbing with insanely high winrates. Part of the double edged sword of the "carry" playstyle is that you hog all the kills and resources and so it's no longer just "I am the only person good enough to carry" it's also now "I am the only person who is even in a position to be able to carry"

No, they reworked it, it now does 50% of your max hp as self damage, it can deny you if you're below that threshold.

They removed that quick deathmatch mode and I have carpal tunnal syndrom

Are you retarded? Boosters exist and they will carry dozens of accounts a month from bronze to diamond, how the fuck do you think they do it?

Cool, I don't like that change ergo I won't play. That's my excuse for not playing.

Jesus Christ...I thought I spent like $600 not over $1,000. That's actually insane, but over the course of 4-5 years I guess that isn't bad. That means I was spending about $250 a year on the game.

I started with Dota 2, tried out League for a few hours, got bored, went back to Dota 2.

Only other MOBA game I tried out was Heroes of the Storm and that managed to captivate me a bit if only because the talents stuff for certain heroes are pretty fun and objective based gameplay can be enjoyable (although for the most part it's not).

What ruined HotS for me lately is how awful the Overwatch stuff is, heroes are boring and the map is the worst they've made yet.
