We all know what are the problems yet Riot is changing irrelevant stuff. Listen to your players more
If you play a little you will know what are the problems we currently have in League. Who is too strong and who is too weak. You will see what should be changed and if you come here on Boards you will see exactly what people want. Why not listen to their voice from time to time. It's players who make the game. Sure you can wait and do it all your way, but I'm afraid that if someone leave LoL even when problems will get fixed he may not return and it will be too late to say "Yeah, we should have listened to our players more".
Sometimes I feel like Riot should listen to Boards more often. No, I do not mean that everytime someone make a "Nerft Ahri, it's shit champ op!!1!" thread they should do it. What I mean is if we have threads about same thing for weeks, every one of them makes it to Hot section with a lot of upvotes there is clearly a problem that Riot should adress, yet they ignore them. What are some of these problems?
--- Champions being too strong. Zoe, Vayne, Ornn, Twich are some of them, yet Riot does nothing. Why? Twitch dominated for weeks if not months, deleting players before they know it, Boards were flooded with discussions about him, some proposed changes, some explained in details what is the problem and yet he didn't get a single nerft. Zoe has over 60% banrate and is picked almost everytime she is not banned, she has huge burst and her sleep lasts for too long. She is revarded for not landing her skill shot and what Riot does? Clearly not take care of any of these problems. They decided that what she needs is +0.2s delay on ther E. This will not solve anything Riot!
--- Some champions have too good synergy with Runes while some have none. Ezreal being himself broke something this season too. He has so good synergy with Klepto (a rune that was ment to be for supports) makes Riot considering nerfing that Rune to balance him, rather than nerfing a champ that is the problem. A good example of champions that have no good keystone rune are Bard, Camile and probably some more. There is no good oprion for them in new Runes. Yes Riot said there will be new Runes so everyone will have good keystone, but when will it happen? Probably in half of the season, so they keep some champions weak on purpose for half a year, not to say there will be balance problems with new runes too.
--- Game is too snowbally. Again, Boards are full of topics how player DO NOT want 15min games, how one deat can lead to lose game, how often it is decided who win by first blood, how towers are too weak and what can be done to make them strnger. We are in this state for 2 months now and getting nothing done can be really annoying. Yes Riot said they will adress it, but I am afraid what they will do. Last time they bufed towers it was a very small and they also buffed minions the same patch so it cancelled itself or maybe even lead to more snowball.
--- ADC hit their powerspike too early, they should be late game champions like they once were, they had to carried by their support in early, helped by team in mid to carry in late. Now thier items are too cheap and yet Riot is increasing passive gold income per second so they will dominate even earlier
--- AP items are too weak compared to AD. Almost every mage is building the same itmes every game, there is no diversity. AP itemisation is way too weak vs AD then the other way around.
--- Riot is touching champions that do not need buffs nor nerfs. Good example are Jinx and Heim. Jinx is getting huge buff to her minigun Q, making her once again unstopable once lvl9, she will destroy towers even faster leading to snowball even harder. Heim is getting huge nerf on his RQ. Was any of them a problem? NO! Yet Riot is changing them for the sake of change and will call it balance. We have seen it many times and complained, so please do not make the same mistake once again.
--- Some champions are getting skins very often while some are left without new skin for years. This is not a balance problem but sure can be annoying. Jhin got 3 skins not so long after release. Lux got Ulitmate skin with 10 forms last year and yet she is getting another one right now, even if it's very similar. Riot says it's because she fits the theme, that they needed a princess and Lux was perfect for it. This can be said abaout every female champion there is! It could have been Taliah for example. She is in need for new skin. At the same time some champions haven't got a sin for years. ASol skin was confirmed to be released at end of 2017. Where is it?
--- Too many old champions are in need of rework. As much as I love new champions and wait for them everytime I would suggest releasing everyone that is currently in production and do not make more until you deal with old one. In addition to wwhat we know is already on the Riot's rework list I would like to see rework or mini rework champs like Sona, Ezreal, Udyr because they are known to be either too strong or too weak, they are hard to balance or just have outdated kits that used to function but do not anymore.
