Senior Riot devs say the League of Legends playerbase is getting older, with fewer newbies jumping in: 'Candidly, it's not the same situation it was 10 years ago' (www.pcgamer.com)

I love everything about League of Legends except for actually playing League of Legends.

The lore, character design and art style, Riot's community engagement and approach to balance - all of it top tier.

But spending 40 minutes losing a game because your top lane got washed 0 and 6 and your shako support just keeps doing the worm in duo fucking sucks.

The community is toxic partly because the game design is infuriating. There's like a thousand ways to lose - the draft, vision control, last hits on minions, objectives, items, team mates, technical skill, etc.

It all compounds into a really shitty, rage inducing, experience.

At this point, I'm just waiting for 2XKO to drop.
