Every League of Legends pre-season brings with it enough changes to really alter the landscape for the upcoming season, and this year is no different. In fact, I’d argue the changes Riot Games has in store for LoL in 2016 are some of its ambitious yet.

    I wish they would make bots harder, i am sure they use to be more offensive, they seem more defensive now.

    But have they fixed the biggest problem.... The community. Because neither of the times i tried to get back to the game have i met anything but pure bile and acid. The sort of thing that would make you long for the days of BNet.

    This have been a good conversation

    When are you trying to play? For most match/arena/pvp games, I notice the same toxicity if I'm playing on the weekend. If I'm playing on a Mon. or Tues. night, people are usually pretty polite.

    After playing from the early years, I had shunned all others to focus on LoL. Countless nerfs left the game just unplayable for me as a casual player. I bought xereth day one, but they nerf him and made him a button masher and an entirely different playstyle, my hands hurt after playing a match of him, and I hate his new play style of always on the move never sitting still... I liked the old, lure them close, blow up on them and pick them off when as they tried to run away. That's fine but that was just one reason I hated it, nerf after revamp to other characters I bought again, left me characters I had no desire to play anymore. Did riot reimburse me my spent points given these characters were nothing like the originals I bought? nope. What finally ended my game play was this summers ui overhaul. I am not a pro player, I have hated smart pings since they introduced them and loathed every dang time I triggered them by accident, there was no way to disable them but this summers patch took the ability I used to ping, the manual buttons on the mini map out. I said screw it and uninstalled a game I enjoyed since year one. The also moved all the buffs and activation around as well another minor annoyance that added up to my final decision to give up the game. If developers want to focus on the console loving teens and twenty somethings that don't have 30+ years of video gaming to draw conclusions from, that's fine, but this 36 year old has gotten to the point where quality gaming outweighs playing the cool thing and I won't waste my time trying to relax after work in Lol anymore.

    Awesome article, you talked about the main points and that's good. Overall I liked the changes and I hope that the 2+ players soloQ works.

    I find the exact same toxicity in every game. Everquest still has shitbags that can waste a lot more than 20 minutes of your time simply because they find it funny. At least in league reports actually work. If you're worried about what little kids are gonna say to you mute them in champ select.

    while toxicity is a problem in every moba, if you play looking at the chat you are doing it wrong. The less i cared about kids yelling in chat the more i enjoyed a moba doing my own thing in my own lane. Winning or losing, i had fun.
