The balance team have been questionable since the beginning of league

Just wanted to point that out, there were a lot shit way before midseason 7 and even before the Juggernauts patch which many seems to claim

Sejuani in S5 Weedwick in 4.20 Ap lane nidalee though Zoe exist so I give you that Feral flare fiesta Ezreal abusing every on hit item since forever The rage at Lucian range nerf Release Xin Zhao Olaf getting Olaf’d The first iteration of Evelynn And many more that I can’t remember

The game was never balanced, some seasons were closer to being balanced than others
