So Does Riot Have a Balance Team?

I've been mulling this over for a while now but with the recent idiocy that was the Galio Q nuke it really makes me question whether Riot actually tests any of their changes. Like really though how can you miss an ability scaling to do 50-70% max hp, with base damage, as well as thunderlord's proc. On what a 5 second cooldown when maxed? Really like it wasn't even on PBE like this went live...like that's sad. From this we fully saw that Riot can't do 3rd grade multiplication using feasible amounts of achievable AP in a standard game. I won't get into specific champions though there are a host or problematic ones, but come on guys. Actually test things, talk to your community before changing things, use the PBE for what it was intended to be for and nip this sort of thing in the bud.

Like this blatant act of disregard, laziness, whatever the case may be does not bode well for the community's already low opinion of Riot's balance team. I'm not here to further the witch hunt but you guys really need to reflect on huge mistakes like these and learn from it. I'm already weary about the new season and seeing what's busted this week, but I hope you guys will at least attempt to test things out this time around as well as use simple math to see problem and exploit cases.

What do you expect, one of the guys who were in the balance team who testet the Galio buffs was Repertoir, and repertoir was in charge of the rengar rework. Repertoir totally fucked up the rengar rework. There is no productive thing you can expect from him. He is not capable of doing ANYTHING

First you have to look at riot as whole(company bought by chinese)U have other games like Heros fo the storm tha acutaly have PBE thats testing and its begin adjusted on that server,in the case of league u have pbe to try out new skins(rly important btw bcs u wont be able to play their game without wasting money).All that riot does is pull outsome stupid change(like galio buff) and then try to patch it out on live server.If ppl make joke of players like hashsin calling out game to be broken and not balanced then they rly shuold look into items/kits of champs that got reworkds after juggernaut change(thats when the game went downhill 80% win rate morde on lcs!!!!).Also take a note of a champion thats coming out(certenlyT design guy that made yasuo and kalista)more untifun and makes game even more cacner then before.There is point to cry ver a drop of milk, we shuold all give up off league and leave it bee lcs only game thats being watched by 20k kids that dont have money to play overwatch or somthing more comeptitve and balanced and most importantly FUN TO PLAY!!!!YEa riot 2 week patches that have arednts canser in them arnt fun u know and cho gat that deals 3k true dmg with flash isnt fun at all!!Also in hots blizzards develpoment team lsitens to their community and tries to adjust heros that are being broken/high win rate in all ranks,what does riot do?Fuking makes 15th skin for kata and annie and ahri!Welcome to the league of lego Hosted by fuking Disney channel kids!
