I just don't get it. There is nothing other than the fact that supports are not completely useless ward bots that I like about the current state of the game. Please explain what is good about this ohrn one shotting someone meanwhile zed has to wait 2 seconds to kill someone. Please!

Honestly? Good players learn to adjust to the challenges riot lays out before them. We all generally have a few champs we hate, and generally hate bad teammates. But.. we love the art, the champs, the culture, and we generally know that mechanical skill generally beats champ imbalance.

I mean.... you're discussing a game of 5th dimensional chess where there are currently some 131 different components, exponentially complicationed by Hundreds of thousands of different players.

Chess alone has 64 squares, 32 pieces, and produces 10,100,000+ possible ways for a game to unfold.

League is far more complicated, and balance is purely impossible. The best you can do with a game like Riot is to try to create outcomes where balance is the best of possibles, considering that every change you make to one champion affects them all, and their environment. That's why Riot continually has to add patch after patch, because one patch that solves 18 problems creates 320 new ones. But, the only way to reduce that would be to make all champs androgenous, have the same skills, and all items to be the same. That truly would be boring.

I guess because I don't usually focus on the negative stuffs and just work around it. Everything sorta has counters and ways to make gameplay not uncomfortable. If you let Ornn one-shotting you faster than Zed's "2 seconds to kill" then there's something wrong. Switch playstyle, pick different champs, coordinate better with teams to get better results because Ornn is nowhere near the Cho'gath level when he was "changed" that could actually 1v4 or 1v5. Also, assassins now cannot kill people in under .5 second unless you're really ahead => that has already been established. If you're looking for a quickie assassination and get out alive to feel the rush then you gotta work for it. However, I find it hard to believe you're bringing assassin into this as a negative aspect. Last time I checked Assassins are one of the better class in this current meta.
