I personally haven't played a part of season 5, because I took a break from league of legends for a while. But I just thought it would be nice to have this kind of thread since so much is going to change about the game with the new season coming in soon.
So I was wondering what rank you all were starting this season, what you thought of it, whether you think you improved, just all of that really.
At the start of my placements this season I was placed in Gold V and climbed up to Platinum III right now still playing rankeds till the end of the season.
I personally loved this season very much, because top lane got more relevant and finally got its time to shine so I could finally have more impact on the games I'm playing.
The addition of bruiser items made is so that you weren't forced into rushing randuins every single game as a tank with the addition of the deadman's plate giving both defensive power and an offensive passive and for example the sterak's gage which gives both a shield, offensive & defensive stats. The new potions were also a nice addition, giving tanks a potion too, though the elixer of ruin should be made slightly more relevant. I also like the jungler items very much, giving them a buffed smite so that it won't have to be only used for farming your jungle all the time, especially good for the junglers that prefer ganking over farming. Though the cinderhulk was a bit too strong at some point (with all the smite top laners)
Some of the champion reworks/juggernaut revamps were kind of broken and still are to some extend though admittedly. I love garen's villain system and new passive because it helps you take targets down that are extremely fed because they get a villain mark, making the game not completely lost when someone is fed. Darius has been fixed and I wouldn't really consider him OP anymore with the low Q range and the plethora of counters. Mordekaiser was a huge terror, but has luckily been tuned down by nerfing his ridiculous exp gain, but he is still a huge threat. Gangplank has been very fun, but I think they need to focus on tuning down his lategame scaling on the barrel Q's, 1k+ aoe crits in teamfights with slow and all of that is just a little bit too much. I love Fiora, she's amazingly fun to play, I hope she'll get a slight nerf though so I can get to play her more as her lategame is way too ridiculous while her early game is not good but not terrible either. I'd say her Q cooldown could be slightly nerfed when hitting a target (from 60% reduction of cooldown to say 40-50%?). Skarner is quite fun and has already been fixed, and has brought dominion to summoner's rift.
Overall it was a fun season for me, though I can imagine that it wasn't quite as fun for an ADC, but don't worry, you'll get your time to shine next season with the ADC revamps.
My goal for season 6 will be reaching diamond, as I am already quite close to it
(Sorry for the long post )
