Why does everything that does well in LCS get nerfed?

Recently there have been Leblanc players in Lcs and for that guess what rito has done. Nerfed her so her W does less dmg. Usually Leblanc players use their W to get away but the damage is making it to where its harder to kill in the early game, so now champs like Zed that still do damage have a advantage against Lb. They nerf sion because he has op health regen and now they are saying to rely more on your w. So now sion will most likely be abused in lane Idk how to feel just had to say that I don't think they should nerf everything that does well in Lcs cause lcs helps players climb and makes people want to play those characters so.

They balance both around pro play and the ladder. Many buffs/nerfs are purely for the ladder. Those that are for pro plays are just more obvious because we imemdiately link them to it. The LB nerf is very small, but I'd pref them not nerfing damage elsewhere so that it's relatively more important to hit your W instead of just using it as gap closer. Or they should nerf the tether range of her E, which is the most annoying thing of the champ.

They nerf them because those champs are op. Both Sion and LeBlanc needed nerfing they were far too strong.
