Community Done With This Balance and Update Team

The Balance and Update Team just don't listen and rectify mistakes in a timely manner. There are other things I will mention that they do terrible but the two things I first mention is just something they keep doing every season. I really hope the League of Legends community really hits this company where it hurts them . . . . the money. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS GAME IF YOU DO NOT LIKE HOW IT IS BEING HANDLED.

  1. Unfortunately this Balance and Update team do not listen. Don't buff Yasuo the community tells them . . . and they buff Yasuo and continue to make him the most banned champion in the game and most annoying champion to play against. They don't listen when the community tells them Ezreal is very overpowered because of all the changes to him and the rune system, but they don't do anything substantial to him. They have done nothing to Rengar to fix mistakes they made. They have done nothing to fix mistakes with LB. They have done nothing to improve AP itemization and actually work on improving the support role.

Why overnerf Sona for the same problems other AP support champions have that she did with the new rune system and her kit? Look at Nami, Lulu and others? Sona was overnerfed and continues to be ignored and other support champions are untouched for the same problems she was overnerfed.

  1. Why does it take 3 months to even think about working on Ezreal for changes that you made to him? His Q was changed and then the new rune system came out. Now Ezreal does 35% of my health at level 2 with nothing and then does even more damage when he gets a sheen. Explain to me how this is ignored but something else in the game that isn't as bad and toxic as Ezreal is not? I mean it took you forever to nerf Sejuani and other tanks . . . you had this same problem with the assassin and ADC update recently. You seem to pick and choose things that you actually care about and have a nifty excuse that you need to collect data to finally nerf Ezreal. You know how powerful he is . . . yet you continue to ignore him.

==========

A fire really needs to be light under this Balance and Update team's butts. There is a lot of complaining going on in this post but the fact of the matter is they don't listen to what the community wants and just buff Ezreal and Yasuo without thinking why people have a problem with them to begin with. They are hypocrites to say Sona deserve hard nerfs but don't work on the other champions that are doing the same thing she is. They are dumb for ignoring the fact that Ezreal is as strong as he is and they refuse to nerf him.

Do you have a skin Ezreal coming out soon? Do you have a skin for Yasuo coming out soon? I can see no other reason to buff the most banned champion, Yasuo other than he has a skin coming out for him. I can see no other reason to ignore Ezreal than him having a skin coming out soon.

The balance team is also horrifically bad when it comes to understand why certain champions are bad and why certain champions are good, or what actually is causing problems in this game. Klepto is a busted rune but they don't seem to want to nerf it in a timely fashion before the year ends, Ornn didn't need three consecutive buffs in a row, but they did it anyways, and they still have no fucking clue how to balance Frozen Mallet for melees and ranged champions (Looking at you Gnar).

Probably the most egregious case of their incompetence has to be Black Cleaver. You can easily nerf it for ranged champions by doubling the number of maximum stacks while keeping the same amount of armor reduction and making it so that ranged champions can only apply one stack per their autos or spells while melee champs get to apply two while DoTs from both categories only apply one stack (Darius nerf, hooray). Maybe it wouldn't work for Lucian but he'd actually have to track you down in the Culling to actually apply full stacks, while MF would only be able to apply Black Cleaver to half effectiveness in the event of a fully channeled ultimate.

Oh well. They're pretty much all silver, Meddler included. (Yeah, they dispelled that meme, but they somehow have silver mindsets.)

The fuck?

Update team? There’s no update team anymore, only champion team

And by the way, the boards doesn’t count as “the community”. A part of it sure but not “the community”

as it turns out a minority of players circlejerking does not get silly changes despite how much you whine about it. Also a few things you complained about are being worked on. As for the biased as hell things you want well dont hold your breath.

They have done nothing to fix mistakes with LB.

Le blanc rework was 10/10 but to OP

But even after massive distortion nerfs a rework was overall positive

Now granted cutting so much power from ability was not the best move I would prefer If they had taken power form Lb elswhere like le blanc distortion speed

LeBlanc rework has been the worst of all. Made the champ clunky as hell. Stripped of a few of her mechanics and made her really unsatisfying to play ALL WHILE making her STRONGER and MORE overpowered than before.

Huh idk statistics dont back you up

  1. Le blanc has amazing popularity granted she always had amazing popularity
  2. In what department did they make her clunky? She cant Distort back asap? You do realise that her distort is faster because of that.. 2k speed, Or are you one of those people who find it hard to press 2 buttoms????
  3. How is she unsatisfying to play for you? Plz elaborate genuinly curious as Le blanc main since season 1

Yes rework did make her stronger but she got nerfed out of OP tier

Eh.... the Overhaul is just unbalanced in general. For some champs its a blessing, for others its a cancer that's hard to mesh with. Gnar would be a prime example since you can't optimize him the way "we" did pre-Overhaul. Then of course there is this constant bitching and moaning about Fervor not being in the game and cancer champs like Yasuo and Riven falling behind because of it.... Fuck them, you're not Buffing Gnar and 90%+ of Gnars used Fervor, so you know, wtf.

If the champion is popular, they wont nerf him hard/ need years to consider or even keep him in OP state for whole season :)

Of course Riot dosen't care about the changes the community wants: there's always gonna be 2 or 3 idiots here on the boards who will claim that the balance team is doing god-like work while praising anything they do. So yeah, the balance team would gladly consider the opinions of some dozens of people and ignore completely thousands more of players, just because their opinions follow theirs

im not going to not play a game i have fun at just becuase there is ONE team at the company who cant do thier job properly.

i mean granted that team being the "balance" team is probably the worst team have at the team that's bad after the "bug fixing" team.

but still every other team at riot is doing great.. or at least MOST of them are... i would like to also have a few words with the new champ dev team..Zoe REALLY isn't ok.
