i didnt play solo/duo ranked seriously in years. I only been chilling in arena/flex/tft etc. game kinda sucks. TO BE FAIR: league gave me some best friends. You(we literally met irl because league exists) and many others. Even here in comments i see just1KB that i consider my online friends i found because of league. League was great because it was a social thing. Its not anymore, just bunch of mentally ill people on the rift. Even the memes dont unite people anymore, everyone will just talk smack. I didnt finish vid yet but i hope you will make something else on youtube. edit: congrats on graduating brother

Playing with streamers and other viewers was so much fun. Damn those were fun days. But ranked??? I'd stay the hell away from that.

Join a club or something. Cuz after college man, work is a huge drop off socially. Friends are much harder to make, and the ones you do have, you don't speak with as much because work eats up almost all of your time. Next two years, you *that* college dude/girl. Okay? Fuck League.

If youre okay with a challenging game and ofc some of its shit occurrences, keep playing and enjoy it for what its worth (if you truly enjoy the game). Getting better at the game and seeing your seeds coming into fruition has to be one of the best experiences. Almost every single competitive game that exists at the moment compares to league. Im sure its just the difference in communities which lead to people straight up telling you not to play.

Besides that I was unlucky way too many games/days in a row with teammates which just broke me and one day I just told my duo "no, screw that game" and haven't touched it since then. Riot will keep losing players this way. Anywhos, good for you and good luck with any type of content you decide to do (if any).

@@teddykazandjievIsn’t the whole point of balance in this game that the different roles counter each other? You are right that ADC’s are strong from range and can do heavy damage to frontlines, but that is what they are supposed to do, they want to fight front to back. Assassins hard counter ADC’s and one shot them if they make even the smallest positional error and the insane amount of cc in this game means that if they get caught by a single cc ability they are dead. Should a bruiser be able to face tank an entire teams worth of damage, jump onto an adc who is forced to position in the backline, and decimate them with a couple abilities? If that is what you call balance then I completely disagree with you. ADC’s do a lot of damage but have alot of weaknesses, such as being insanely squishy, extremely punishing (besides maybe trist, ez, zeri) if you do not have great positioning and map awareness, and you don’t even become a champion until 2-3 items. Are there specific champs within the role that are unbalanced atm because of items or their numbers, of course, but the role of ADC is not broken and is probably the most difficult/unrewarding in the game.

Darius used to have a weight and trying to killing him was equivalent to killing a 'real Noxian general'. But suddenly I started dying in just 1 or 2 seconds. Then when I came to look at your videos wondering if it was just me, you said you noticed the same thing and that it was very annoying. I realized that day that I had to quit, millions of mastery points just gone, but if Riot doesn't care why should we right ? And we all have responsibilities right now.

I appreciate them nerfing her and other outliers of balance in general eventually, but they never hit them as hard as they've hit Yorick or other allies, wich reeks of Favortism which I also hate.. But thank you for your league content and help throughout the years, Imma be lurking for whatever game or different video you'll be making or streaming brother :D (I was worried Vanguard would be the last straw for many people aswell, the moment it bricked 2 of LS's PCs, that means nobody is safe or those who invested are getting hit the most) Lastly I also knew a friend that played league while working for an important company and I was wondering why I haven't seen em in a while, probably was Vanguard that made him stop..

I feel like league does do a good job of filling the void, but it makes you into a very corrosive, human hating person + also, as you said. it takes so much time everyday out of your life to be consistent. watching hours of matchups, you own match reviews, coaching, etc. you can't take a few days off and not be impaired on this game. respect.

Completely felt what you said about league taking time away from other games. I have purchased and never played countless games because of so many reasons all tied to league such as: "I don't want to try and learn a new game, I don't want to play it right now because I want to play league to scratch my hyper competitve itch." A year ago, there were multiple nights in a row where I would end up wasting my entire evening and feel so mad not because I lost every game, but because I felt I had wasted my entire evening and I absolutely covet my free time since I work over 40 hours a week. If I did bad, I would be super hard on myself and downward spiral more losses in a row. All justified to myself because I had such a strong desire to reach diamond because to me it was the ultimate goal and I had been playing since S3. And for what? I felt like I was stagnating in my life. The energy I was pouring into reaching a goal that has zero payoff is so rediculous. I kept imagining what if I poured this level of energy into something more rewarding or productive and finally it hit me. The game is hyper-addictive and had sensitized me to the point where I craved instant gratification so bad that no other game or activity could satisfy my craving. I don't know why it took me almost 2 years and almost ruined my grad school grades to realize it, but I don't beat myself over it and am just so glad I recognized it when I did. I feel like this is your realization moment and I am glad you are making a positive change. After soft quitting league and moreover quitting things that gave me instant gratification I have never been in a better mental spot than I am now. It was extremely tough the first month and I had to push myself hard because in the moment of going cold turkey I was miserable, but If you are feeling this way I hope my story reassures you that you are not alone to have these thoughts. Now, I actually have time to enjoy hobbies that long term feel so much more rewarding such as having read more books, and painted an entire warhammer army I may or may not have 3D printed xd. Thanks again for the awesome darius content and good luck for future content!

With how insanely expensive buying an army is I'd say 3d printing them is definitely the play.

Something I believe you forgot to mention is the ability for people to just buy accounts. That guy who ran it down 10 games in a row and ruining the day for those people is able to buy another accounts for barely 5$. Now if I on my main account decide to shoot back at him i could lose my level 800+ account that ive used for years climbing from silver to high masters (as a top laner). Its incredibly how shit riot is at just getting the job done and solving problems. Back when you ran that soloq boot camp that I join in and had a great time in a decent segment was just about dealing with those damn precum babies that just waste all our time. Love ya man and I hope you continue to just make content. Ur awesome

I am glad you made this decision. Your guides are awesome but league is for real like a drug. Like i wish i could quit league, i am a person that really gets addicted to stuff, ive tried drugs IRL both legal and illegal, and i swear from the bottom of my soul that its was easier too quit cigarrettes than it is to play league. And i wish i was joking cuz i am not D:

I've played like 500 games over the span of 10 years, then I started playing more this year for the one reason that I wanted to try out boosting jobs, but jesus the changes in Season 14 are just sooooooooo bad. The new map sucks and a good 30 or so different champions on different patches are broken OP from Season start all the way until now, while 50+ are complete trash and I haven't seen so many champions a single game all season long. Absurd amount of trolls in game as well, huge number of games lost and won because of trolls. Game sucks extremely hard, can't argue with that in any way

I agree though, If you're a fed toplaner the Support will hold you back alongside the top you beat as their ADC/APC murder you. Support Gap makes everybody lose while their lane/role, While JG IMO is a glorified support that was given too much gold and power, but Supp still worst cause they don't need gold XD

Ye I quited that crappy game, probably for the same reasons as you, top main of course, I played literally everything could win my lane and etc, but that coin flip and team diffs are just unbearable. You can't play the game without getting tilted mad af sooner or later. It messes you psyche so much it's crazy. The ban system, the honor system. Like everything in one word "HYPOCRISY" and "NARCISIZM" sorry that was 2, yeah I feel you mate, good luck, time to move on, and get hooked off that shit :D

They gutted my champion pool and other games are just too hard to deal with, not worth the trouble.. So I too have kinda stopped playing its been 3 months or so.. I think I will play for a week(if I start) and stop. Thought uploading some videos as a finale. Thanks for your time Rhoku, you are a chill streamer and one of the best Darius OTP, I do like the off topic discussions espcially those physics.

As the dangers of kernel "Vanguard" arise, I des-install league, however, I do enjoy watching it. So is not a shock that you decided to quit, but is a bad news. I don't hold any grudge against you and hope for the best. That being said, have a long life! (Im gone).

Not an avid viewer of you or anything, but agree with everything you said. Especially this thing about changing the game all the time. I just don't get it. I OTP a champ in jungle and every time I take a few weeks or a couple of months off, I'll come back and everything is completely fking different for no reason whatsoever. It's always what is the next bullshit thing you have to play around and who is the next permaban. Sometimes the game is enjoyable, like you'll have aatrox darius panth zed zoe etc being played, but other times, like right now actually, its just fkn ADC in every lane and perma farming camps in jungle to not fall behind the AFK farming karthus heca evelynn shyvana [insert meta pick here]. Thanks for the video man. Said a lot of thoughts I've had myself, coming towards the end of my masters degree, I think its also time for me to step back as well.

I agree with your sentiments. I don't know how many of you are out there, but anyone that has played in the earlier seasons from S1-S6 will tell you that the moment league died was when they started removing all of the unique interactions between champions, items, and the map. At the same time, riot keeps introducing these noob friendly features that I seriously believe are terrible to the game, such as scuttle crabs, RNG dragons, plants, gold bounties, and rubber band exp. These are just a handful of mechanics that are purposely designed to nerf perfection and player capability. The game has essentially been streamlined so much over the years that it has become a stat check competition, no matter the composition or matchup. The game has become a chore. PS: I still can't understand why these POS idiots at riot won't install voice chat in League, which solves more problems than it creates. Toxicity stems from mismatches in performance and more importantly coordination, which is easily remedied through communication.
