Remember Kalista?

This precedent Riot has created with balancing champions like Kalista is absolutely disgusting.

If some of you forget, Kalista was so strong in LCS what Riot had to nerf her into the ground to the point where she was trash in the competitive and non-competitive scene. Everyone has seemed to have forgotten about this, which probably makes Riot thinks it's okay.

It's not.

And they're doing it again to multiple champions: Aatrox, Akali, Yuumi...

Pro play balance ruins balance for 90% of the community that isn't pros. For the love of god please stop balancing on pro play, why not just ban champions in pro play, or balance solely for them. Have them play a nerfed version of a champion. I'm not on the balance team, it's not my job, but I do know is the way Riot is currently handing balance is ruining the game.

And TahmKench and apparently Karma…

They wouldnt need to balance most of these champs this way if riot would just go back to season 6/7 where time to kill was higher and hp was easier to get ahold of...karmas q damage wouldn't be nearly as big of an "issue" back then.

Its funny that just 2 seasons ago, tahm kench was considered "Useless" by competitive players, but now that almost everyone is capable of bursting the opposition hes become "broken" because he is no longer in the meta that he was designed to be balanced in.

And to take that even further..

item 3157 was not a gamebreaking item back in season 6-7 it was balanced back then while being incredibly powerful now... but it is allowed to stay in its current state now? Difuq?
