    Cheers man, you've been such a great friend and an inspiration. You helped me find my passion and pushed me to improve every step of the way. I'm sad to lose another League of Legends content legend but BEYOND excited for the next step of your journey and what you got cooking in the over for the future of the channel. We're behind you dude :)

    As someone who has quit league about two years now I have to say that I'm glad that you see the issues too. I remember jumping in solo and actually having a lot of fun even with the other team. We would support each other even if it meant we lost the game, just because it was fun and meant nothing to us (as all games should). I wish league understood their main community will never be eSports based, and would strive to make them the happiest.

      I feel like that's a lot of games now though unfortunately. Apex is currently in a dying shift because they keep making their game worse by only listening to their esports players. Smite has been stagnant and not doing do well partially because most balancing goes through the esports performance. Meanwhile their matchmaking decides to throw a bronze random against masters players. They gotta stop balancing things of the competitive scene because that's not the majority keeping the games alive

      @@Jess-ug3ck Heck, we have a PERFECT example of a game that STILL thrives, and REFUSES TO DIE. And you know why? Because it's almost completely CASUAL. Do you know which game I talk about? It's Team Fortress 2. With one of the most creative, and fun-focused communities in gaming. There is no other game than Team Fortress 2 on the market, and even if Valve doesn't care about it really these days, people keep it going. TF2 is still in top 3-4 of most-played games on the Steam platform when it's creators are even willing to let it die. It's insane.
      Honestly using Team Fortress 2 model would help LoL as well. Pretty much leave lots of options for the community to play with. Give them the creative freedom to create their own product (like their own skins, etc.), that they may approve of and monetize anyway, and LoL will get a surge of players that will both love the game, and enjoy creativity of it.

    I started playing league around the end of S4 and the beginning of S5, and that was the best time I had playing this game. I quit because I realized it will never go back to what it was anymore, it's just not the same game I used to love...
    I almost got kicked out of university because I couldn't stop playing during my first and second year. My grades, friendship, and social life suffered to the point where I cannot even recognize myself anymore. Moreover, my life was completely filled by playing league everyday for countless hours, and I was too embarrassed to tell anyone about my gaming addictions. I tried to quit by uninstalling the game quite a few times before, but it was only since June of 2020 when I managed to quit completely. On the day that I quit, I was so angry and frustrated that I lost countless ranked games in a row, to the point where I almost raged after I lost a couple of meaningless ARAM games just trying to win for once. I was no longer having fun but rather playing just because couple of friends who introduced me to the game were still playing. What really hit me was the sudden realization that I've put my blood and sweat over all these years, yet I was still hard stuck gold and couldn't win a single game that day no matter how hard I tried. I had never lost my mind like that before and I knew that I just couldn't take it anymore, so I deleted the game one last time for good. Since then, I haven't touched the game and I absolutely don't have any desire to play it again.
    I regretted wasting six years of precious time, life, and money on this game, and it's something that I can never get back. Looking back at it, I don't miss this game at all. It was simply one of the best decisions I've made as it changed my life completely. I became a much happier person, as I found my purpose and calling in life through my church. In terms of my career, I made the decision to pursue a career in education after I quit. More importantly, just a few months after I quit I met my girlfriend, and we have been dating for over a year now. Honestly, I don't think I would have gotten a girlfriend if I continued playing. Your life will be in a much better state when you stop wasting your money and time on something that's literally a virtual reward and data. Seriously guys life is just too valuable to continue to waste it on something like this... it's never too late to quit and turn your life around.

It’s a huge community, but in terms of real world population, we’re still small. So it makes me have hope that others are starting to discover and explore what vrc really is.

I will forever be grateful, but like Skooch, I too, am saddened by how much league has changed. To me, it's like watching an old friend change and grow distant with me. I no longer have fun like I use to back when league was for the players. It aches my heart but I have also decided to quit league. I will always be thankful for what it brought to me and the doors it opened, but like a family member on their deathbed, I can only say I loved you and let them pass. Goodbye league, may you continue to thrive wherever you go as you become a fond memory in my heart.

Years later I still play it and kinda live through youtube content to validate my opinions and have a laugh caused I don't really have anyone to talk about current league with but one other person. I'm sad to see you go Skooch but even happier that you're going to make content on things that you love! The spark isn't there anymore and that definitely happens!

    Damn man, you said it better than I ever could. I’ve been struggling with letting this game go too. Been playing since a month before shyvanna was released and it’s been a fun part of my life.. but it’s so focused on ranked and like you said the creativity is gone.. all they care about is skins and esports… it’s really sad but I think I wanna start giving it up too and you’ve inspired me

    I feel so happy for you man, I love the passion you show for this game and will for sure watch your content even if there is no league in it, I feel very much the same. League is now a way too competetetive for my taste game. I grew up with it, I made some crazy friendships there, I squiggled with joy and excitement for the new champions, maps and lore updates. I loved this game and a part of it will always stay with me, but overtime it stopped being this game that I loved. It's important to know when to let go of the things and I completely understand your decision and it makes me feel more encouraged to not come back to league, I hope you find the excitement you once felt for this game in other ones.

    Been playing league since season 3 on and off. And the best time I had was when I was playing just normal games with my friends having a blast. It was honestly the best time of my life. 7+ years later and the game has become nothing but a souless vessle of what it once was..
    I miss the old days of queueing up playing whatever, and just having fun. Not caring whether we win or loose.
    Now I have become dull to this "new game" that has taken its place and find no joy in it.
    Thank you Skooch for providing one of the best content League had to offer. You have made me laugh so many times I cannot even recount.
    Keep up the work man life is what it is and we continue on.
    Godspeed to you my friend!✊

    I feel you on this decision, I've considered quitting the game numerous times, only playing it casually, and sometimes even for fun modes doesn't give me much enjoyment in this game. I guess that there will always be time to leave the game, and some day rediscover it. You picked your own time to leave the game, some of us might leave it later. But your content will always stay with us for the good memories.

Jokes aside, Good luck on your new journey, as someone who's not only been a part of, but was there at the very foundation in preseason 1, i can only agree, League has changed, drastically so, i have played, every, single, season, and never once gave a damn about ranked (the first 4 season, i think played 10 ranked games total), and league is far from what i originally fell in love with. I will keep playing, but i hope that u will once again scooch find a passion that can rival the previous passion u must have felt for league once upon a time. Best of luck on ur journey, looking forward to the videos u will put out :D

    I knew this video would happen some day. League is just not a game that everyone's going to keep playing for forever. It just isn't the same as a BR or any other multiplayer game, no. It's special in the way that everyone WILL quit someday for their own reasons and a new player will turn up in their stead. But cheers to you brother, you're one of my favorite content creators on the net, you'll soar without League! Edit: You, Sunnysplosion, and Trinimmortal carry LoL content for me. I don't even play but you guys are so entertaining, even when not playing it, I just like watching y'all.

You release league around now looking and playing how it does and it would have died instantly.

    On another note, I totally relate to feeling the passion for League die. I'm honestly choking up thinking about it because the game I knew for over almost a decade has been lost completely and it feels like losing a friend. I personally have felt this throughout all of gaming and it's genuinely effected my life in ways I never thought it ever could. Losing a hobby because you just don't like it anymore is one thing, but losing a hobby because it changed into something you hate is an insane experience.
