Why solo queue statistics will never truely define whats "balanced".

There is a huge misconception with solo queue statistics being a declaration of whats "balanced". I'll give you the biggest and most obvious hint at whats balanced or not. Simply go to google type in "popular LCS picks" and there you go regardless of how those champions are played and viewed in solo queue, in riots eyes pick rate, ban rate, and success rate with champions are taken FAR more seriously in LCS than solo queue.

LCS in comparison fuck me if im wrong is like the NBA with challenger pretty much being the D league. So expect anything seen in LCS to be taken seriously.

Most importantly not everyone is a LCS player, the LCS players are capable of outputting the most out of a champion that's even remotely possible thus solo queue statistics will ALWAYS be fucking irrelevant in contrast to LCS.
