Daily reminder that Riot balances for pro play and not for solo queue

RankOneUganda··1 votes·288 views

twitch has been a free win for a very long time now. but lets ignore it. he has a 6 man rengar ulti.

rengar was toxic for killing from stealth. twitch is not . his basic ability is basically a rengar ulti ion a ranged campion that lasts longer and has 1/4th of the cooldown.

but nerf 47% winrate solo queue champion caitlyn twice in a row.

difference is twitch is out in the open in a lane having to farm and cs to get his items and hit a "late game" build to do a 6 man ult ( there is no 6 players on a team) where as rengar was jungle ... free farmed cs ... no vision on him at all.... ults then pops out of no where to kill you at lvl 6

Cait is a lane bully who takes that power all the way to late game.

Twitch is pretty bad in lane and then scales to late game.

there is a very big difference.

For starters, riot doesn't balance around LCS as much as you act like they do. If they did, league's winrates would look more like DOTA2's for soloQ.

but nerf 47% winrate solo queue champion caitlyn twice in a row.

they nerfed her because the community shrieked for nerfs for a long as time.

Twitch's stealth != Rengar's stealth

They literally make changes and specifically mention they are for the health of solo queue quite frequently, in the patch notes.
