I decided not to go after I saw how retarded the french public was, making waves and "wooooows" just for the sake of doing it, even when there was no action to warrant such things. Super obnoxious. And the were doing it non-stop for the entire duration of the game. No, just no.
Dont CLG and TSM have some big rivalry? If so it will be quite amusing to watch their future matchups.

It's the biggest rivalry in all of western E-Sports maybe, considering LoL has the most organized scene. These news are hilarious, actually. DL was the face of CLG, got kicked out and now joins their rival. I hope CLG gets Freeze now, because their fanbase has already taken a hit with this and will completely disappear if they don't perform next split. They also kicked Pobelter, another player who has a massive personal fanbase. All of this after having their most successful split ever, counter logic indeed.

Was so hyped for ranked tb, now I see its turned into some sort of monstrosity.
Probably a good time to make a clean break with league then. College on the way makes league a very poor use of time.

Dafuq is with the new masteries? I am so confused. I like how they gave more options to pick the last skill at the bottom of the tree though I am not sure how much diversity it will actually bring in champion pools. Oh and the summoner spell CDR seems OP.

The new queue is absolute shit, although quite possibly because they haven't tested it at all. I queued up yesterday, spent like 20 mins in the queue, nothing, went on the LoL boards, apparently it was completely broken and everyone was having the same experience.
Ok, tried again today. Managed to connect by selecting support, the champion select screen looks like glorious digital diarrhea. Fucking shiny shit everywhere, all kinds of shit flying around, buttons to press, pointless stuff to choose, it's like a mini-game for retards. Got to the loading screen, client crashed at 90% load. Tried to reconnect as soon as possible, got into the game, the game kicked me for prolonged inactivity as soon as I got in. After going back to the client screen, it told me I left the game and would I like to connect again? I LEFT THE GAME...
Why do retards always try to fix something that's not broken, and always miserably fail? Why, oh, why...

Lol, Twitch chat went full retard as soon as they showed Remi.

Ha, dynamic queue was a colossal fucking trainwreck, thank god. They actually had teams of diamond players that queued solo matched up against no bullshit LCS teams. A fucking joke and done for no reason, no one asked for dynamic queue. Like usual riot refuses to see that it has tremendously fucked up. I love all the apologists though. I've never understood why a lot of fanbases act like they're friends of the developers and not paying customers. (I get lol is technically f2p but are you going to tell me the majority of players have never plunked down any cash?).
I'm sorry, it's just so rich to predict catastrophe and be proven right. I just don't understand though. Why fundamentally change the way the game is played to the detriment of the majority of the players?
Logged in today to see whats changed, discovered they axed normal team builder to boot. I'm livid, because that mode always had the attitude of "it's where people go to learn" a nearly rageless queue with way more helpful players since there's no ranked stress but also no normals retard fuckery. I'm letting that confirm my suspicions that Riot purposeless makes it hard to practice to force people to simply play ranked to learn because that's infinitely more time consuming. Also why they're so insistent on changing core aspects of the game so frequently. Why let people have team builder when they can practice a champion? Why let people practice mechanics in snadbox mode? Let's rework the jungle and vision again! Make people play a fuckton of ranked matches just to figure out how to do any of this shit?
Plenty of games out there that give me the sense of competitive play without needlessly complicating it out of greed for my playtime.

My best guess is they saw a large pool of players only ever playing normals with their friends.
They had stats that said the average ranked player spent more money on riot points. Thus trying to drive the normal only casual player into the ranked mode would increase profit due to people getting more dedicated to the game.
It makes sense, but in doing so they're completely fucking people who like to play solo. An entire community of the most dedicated players are getting dicked by Riot in order for them to cater to the casuals.
What pisses me off the most is how bad it is for the competitive integrity of the game. You'll never know if someone solo'd their way to diamond or if they played with their 4 friends who are better than them.
How the everliving fuck are people playing solo's rank and people playing with a team's rank comparable at all? They can't EVER get matched with each other in a game. It's so fucking ridiculous.
Also imagine the case where some random silver 5 player plays with his gold 5 friends. Together they all reach an MMR around Gold 1 after a few months of playing. Now the silver 5 dude is feeling confident because he's been winning so much and he decides to queue alone. He gets put into a game, where he's not good enough to compete and it ruins the game for the other 9 people in that game. It's just not a thought out system.

Lol, like elo means anything now? I get matched against players who have no chance of winning against me all the time. I've been playing for 3 years and I'm in Silver 3. And I occasionally get matched vs. people who've only leveled 30 a few days ago and they're in Silver 3. It usually ends with the enemy team saying "report our mid for feeding", but he didn't feed, he even did his best, but the system matched him with me, a much more seasoned player. The system is very broken anyway, couldn't possibly be worse.
It's a bit bullshit how they wait a few weeks before allowing us to solo ranked.
This guy on reddit hit the money:
So basically they give the solo queue a delay and they make sure it has no ranked rewards either.
It's almost like they're giving us the queue out of pure spite.
Doesn't matter much to me since I don't give a flying fuck about ranked rewards, but I can see why some people are upset.

i cant believe people still play this game lol(at least people who've been playing it for years) got bored after like 2 years(prolly played like 500-60 games total) and back in s3 i got diamond 4 literally by going jax top every game
if i didn't have rl friends who kept bitching me to play or duo with them i prolly wouldn't of even gotten level 30, really bad game imo and by far the worst/most annoying game community i've ever seen
