if you have a bad first 5 minutes of the game and fall behind farm then just go play another game cause it’s just gets even more boring.

I thought that was basically the genre definition of MOBA.

It is, but the snowballing is higher in this game. You back once during early lane and there goes your first turret.

NGL losing your guardian the first time you back is a skill issue. Maybe if the entire enemy team rotated to your lane. It usually takes at least 2 retreats to lose your guardian. More if you're playing with your lane teammate correctly and using your speed boost at the right times.
