What the actual fuck were they thinking?
>>743395820Ok, how they fucked up this?
>>743395820>youtubers complaining>redditors complainingwill they actually fix it?
>>743395820Let me guess, it's worse than chronoshift, which Riot killed because it exposed all the horrible decisions they made to LoL over the yearsso glad I quit
Don't care. Bring back Dominion and then we can talk.
>>743396285>>743396132they charge for the original character models
>>743396410Too fast and too fun for the modern gamer.
>>743396549>too fastbut that's exactly what the modern gamer likes
>>743395820>OH NO NO NO NO NO
>>743396549Modern League is fast. Old League could do 45+ minute games with ease, even 70 minutes wasn't unheard of.
>>743396434lmao they're doing that bad?
>>743396820People were just really bad at the game back then I think
>>743396132>summoner's rift visuals are altered>uses modern champion skins by defualt, old are locked behind paywall and even then they do not have classic voices>some old champions do not have they original kits: eve/twitch has a camouflage instead of invisiblity, nidalee spear hitbox is not wide like it should>has modern mechanics like trinkets, remake and role preferance system>items and champions are not from a specific snapshot but abhorrent mix from beta to season 3>no kino old ranked queue music>they sell paint tier loading screen splash arts for 1150rp
I am just holding out for League NEXT. Classic's got issues. Not enough to completely discourage me, but enough to ensure I don't play it nearly as much as I was thinking I would, or as much as I played it on Day 1 of PBE.
>>743395820our cattle fanbase will play it anyway
>>743397878"Oh and when this meme game mode goes away, no obviously you can't keep them in a normal game, that would ruin the game! We're taking away all of your goodies you bought!"There's still no answer for this obvious issue but we can only assume the most basic bitch ass answer
>>743397878>1150 RP for that slopHoly shit kill Riot NOW
>>743397878>twitch has a camouflage instead of invisiblityfor the same patch that butchered his itemization? wow.
>>743395820Rito playerbase is dying and they are trying to appeal to nostalgia which will never work because the fundamental problem with the game is 50/50 matchmaking where you are purposely paired up with quitters or trolls so you'll lose.>>743396410Let's be honest here nobody cares about this game mode.

>>743403619I played more Dominion than anyone else for some reason. It’s incredibly unbalanced because they never put real effort into it.
>>743403619>nobody cares about this game modeMy buddy and I played a fuck ton of dominion and preferred it to SR.It was fast. It was fun.
>>743405531Btw pro tip AP Teemo is basically unbeatable bottom.
>>743395820Making a classic edition is an admission that you've fucked up your game so much that it's unrecognisable/unwanted by the people that initially supported it.
>>743396820This is really dependant on having team comps that are 3 burst AP assassins or siege mages and 2 offtanks. If you had even a single champion that could push towers without needing three creep waves behind them and that didnt fold to annie walking up and pressing Q on them, you never got 50 minute games. 70 minute games are entirely the realm of wtf2shens in the top lane and kogmaw vs anivia mid
>>743397878so if its all just bastardized "retail", where does the alleged "classic" comes in?
They were probably thinking they could bait a bunch of morons into blowing cash on a version of League that is objectively worse in every possible metrics, but banked on the fact that nostalgia fags would eat it the fuck upt. played league for a decade straight since the beta and didnt touch this because im not a fucking retarded idiot
>>743395820i hate riot games so much
>>743406442Riot = TencentTencent = chinks
>>743407353China is based though
>>743406203Honestly, they should have kept the PBE focused on Modern LoL and kept quiet about Classic until DAY 1 ANNOUNCEMENT + LAUNCH. If they really wanted to nickel and dime then run that badly, that was the move.
>>743405745It gets more malicious than that. The Classic version is meant to have the most broken shit in the game like Launch Kassadin and AP Yi so that people are like "wow classic league was always shit". Nevermind that they could have nerfed either like how they've already gutted AP Tristana on the PBE
>>743395820they killed chronoshift for this lolfuck riot games, bunch of niggerfaggot tranny retards
>>743397878i wanted to hear old eve and poppy so now there is no point.
>>743405901it doesn't
>>743407819Yes it is just pure laziness to not grab the old sound files and bare minimum slap them on the Classic skins they are trying to sell. Going to be fucking annoying hearing Maokai's new voice on the old model, which looks badass to this day.
>>743396132It's modern LoL with a skin and select "old skool" balance changes changes Imagine WoW classic but blizzard just left azeroth as it was post-cata
>>743395820>Dota, but less fun, less mechanically deep, more metafaggery and with an somehow worse community (trannies and women).>2026 and still no voice chatsunk cost and HRT are the only reasons for someone to stay on this shit
>>743405745League is dying and has been for a while. It's not a "bleed 50% of your playerbase over the weekend" dying like Marathon but you can tell they're scared shitless trying to throw shit at the wall to see what sticks.WASD movement was also another desperate attempt to reel in the zoomers that have never played an isometric game
What happened to the children of the grave offline server?
>>743397153It's a combo of that plus objectives weren't as game endingNowadays a bad teamfight can lead to herald taking 2+ towers, elder dragon/baron exodia and general mobility and waveclear being higher
>>743408034Maokai is the goathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSgb35PBdS4
>classic>it's not actually classic but more of a retro throwback with a "modern feel"???
i think it's not all it could, and probably should, be. and it's tainted by riot's monetization.but it is still reasonably neat and i'm glad it's here.
