Everyone nowadays is incredibly mobile for free and it REALLY makes me dislike this game. And the only way to beat that is to have people that are just absurd at locking people down AND get high mobility (jarvan... elise... vi... pretty much any jungler that is in the meta right now)
Maybe this should go in the Shikyo thread, I don't know, but the current balance of this game really tears at me.
I feel like you aren't putting yourself at a disadvantage by not playing FOTM, unless you are really at the highest level of play. Which im guessing you aren't? No disrespect intended, you could be on a LCS team for all I know. As long as you are playing to the strenghts of your champ I don't feel like you are at a disadvantage. That was my first thought reading his post too, then I read his username and felt dumb -.-;; Yeah, he's kind of a good player... just a little .
EDIT: I'm way late on the bandwagon haha.

been reading the dev tracker lately and they said one of the big issues they see with mobility in the current game isn't that it exists to such a high degree, but that highly mobile champs need really severe drawbacks to compensate and those currently aren't really there. so i guess they share your thinking. Well, it's only been three years.
It's hard to get a right balance though. There has been a slow and steady power creep that has led to other champions falling off without anyone really noticing.

Don't stop posting Zatan, just think up some not-so-clever puns and all nerves are washed away.

Loco was on Najin sword as a sub, but I think he's the new AD carry for Mig with woong.

You do understand they are FOTM precisely because they are effective at winning?

His point is HOW they are effective at winning. The general progression of champs that get better and better mobility has gotten higher. Those used to have tradeoffs on champs, now there are enough in the game that if you're not playing a champ with insane mobility and few/no drawbacks then you can't carry hard enough.
There is/was/always will be champs who are a bit ahead of the curve; the problem is with HOW they are above of the curve.

You know what Suf, I'm sure that escaped him altogether. He would never think of such a complex thought.
I actually LIKE the power creep of the game, maybe I'm alone in liking it however. I like highly mobile champs, or champs with insane lockdown or damage, I HATED s2 personally, especially with junglers donating almost all of their jungle so Anivia could eventually one shot the other team's adc. It was so stagnant and slow I wanted to gouge my eyes out. With OP champs and 1v2 lanes speeding the game up it rarely feels stale. I had a game that the laning phase lasted 20 minutes and it felt like it would never end (nobody took any towers at all), and it reminded me of s2 play.

On a sidenote I remember either hearing someone else say or thinking to myself that there was a particular patch that buffed all of Loci's mains. I think Ryze, Nasus, Morg, Panth or something.
