Already seeing backlash from the gatekeeping league community. LoL is losing out to newer games partly because of the unintuitive control scheme.
When even Street Fighter is innovating despite the FGC’s reluctance, League needs to evolve or will be slowly left behind.
Isn’t that going to make playing ADC way easier? I always had problems with the fast mouse actions involved in positioning and attacking

Anyone remember Masters X Masters? It was a MOBA that had WASD controls as it’s only option, even had a jump (though it was mostly useless), it felt so much more intuitive than spamming click. I don’t think that’ll get me to try LoL again though.
