Many players feel like the Predator rune in League of Legends has fallen out of favor. They believe that Riot is purposely ignoring the rune because they can’t figure out how to make it fair without causing problems.
Riot Games keeps ignoring Predator rune
In League of Legends, players can choose from a variety of runes to tailor their playstyle and champion preferences. Predator used to be one of the strongest runes, especially for junglers who wanted to focus on ganking.
However, it was nerfed a while back, and players think Riot hasn’t done much to make it better since then. Some players even suggest that Predator should be removed from the game entirely because it’s difficult to balance.
Players argue that finding the right balance in League of Legends games can be tricky. Predator used to make games faster-paced by giving junglers and certain support champions a significant movement speed and damage boost.
But recent changes in Season 12 made Predator less effective, especially in the early game. Players have suggested various fixes, like making it work better with certain in-game items, but others think it’s better to just get rid of it.
According to some players, Riot might be intentionally keeping Predator weak with the intention of eventually removing it from the game. They believe that most players dislike the fast-paced gameplay that comes with Predator being strong.
“They’re intentionally keeping it shit and forgotten for an eventual removal. Everyone hates predator meta”
“It should be replaced. It can’t be healthy for the game when good.”
Riot developers have mentioned that they want to keep Predator in the game to give players more choices, but it’s unclear if they’ll change their minds in the future. Whether or not Predator will stick around remains to be seen.
