"trying a few things out right now, and am starting with some of the extremes. should be a few different iterations over the next few days"

A lot of you over here clearly can't read very well or understand what they read - even simple msg like this one, so let me quote someone who explained it better:

[{quoted}](name=CC Kero,realm=NA,application-id=3ErqAdtq,discussion-id=1WqiPriU,comment-id=0006,timestamp=2015-07-09T14:57:27.736+0000)

For clarity to the commenters in this thread, there's a difference between:

  • Hey Riot, the changes won't work for X and Y reasons, or the real problem is Y and you should approach it by Z; and-
  • GG Riot is killing Azir, he won't exist after X patch because Y highly experimental changes are guaranteed to go to live

especially when the guy known for doing his interal testing on PBE and pulling his changes tells you that these are not THE only changes he's testing, but will continue to change drastically over the next few days as he experiments with extremes.

The upvoted thread on front-page literally reads "Goodbye Azir, we will miss you" and talks as if these changes are set in stone, and people are defending that despite the Rioter saying that he just started his testing on a variety of approaches.

tl;dr take off your tinfoil hats, and give actual feedback

Still, these changes are on the PBE. Which means we should give feedback on them, that being the point of PBE and all.

Riot have stated that the PBE server is not for feedback on balance changes, only for finding bugs/glitches.

Though even when people do give feedback, it tends to get ignored (see Sona nerfs, Veigar rework, Elise changes, etc.)

well, as the changes really go in the wrong direction (more focus on his burst/poke-pattern of q->aax2 instead of dpsing)...i think it´s quite the right thing to critize them.

People are kind of up in arms, as generally what goes on the PBE goes live. I'm no fan of how Azir is currently, but I mean come on...

Clearly you haven't been around here long. When has anything on the PBE ever been reverted apart from with Lee Sin after a "massive community backlash".

Kalista was "Just on the PBE" too. Things on the PBE don't get reverted unless the community loves them. Then they are never seen again.

Well it's the PBE, which unfortunately is more of an early showcase nowadays combined with a bug testing site :/

On one hand, this sounds reasonable. On the other hand...precedence Cassiopeia
