I really hope Riot doesn't balance their game around the stuff people say on this board

I was just reading 3 threads where people still unironically consider Zed/Yasuo/Vayne as "busted".

Reading the threads on here you would think that Hashinshin is behind every single comment. It's absolutely sickening in how misinformed most of the opinions on here are and it so blatantly reeks off "I'm coming off a loss streak and I need to vent with other hard stuck silver players in a giant echo chamber"

Most of it is just outright lies and overexaggerations as well

YIKES

Zed is in a spot where he may be too strong or may be too weak. Currently from my point of view, the Zed changes made him too strong. Yasuo is in a weird spot right now. He feels more overloaded then usual but I haven't played against him enough to know but he does feel strong to play as at the moment. I haven't seen any threads condemning Vayne, but adcs in general are busted right now. Vayne is just among the pool.

ADC main. Yes adcs are pretty busted right now. If I fuck up it usually causes my team a major hit. I love playing champs like Kai'sa and Miss Fortune, but I can't take the pressure. I've taken a break from League as I feel too overwhelmed playing it at the moment. I don't know about Zed and Yasuo. I get annoyed at them both but I don't know if they're overpowered.

EDIT: I realized what I said at the start was off. What I mean by when I fuck up is if I die to the enemy adc and they get a lead.

They arent busted. There are a few that are. Trist/Cait/Kai'sa/etc. Twitch's assassination potential. And probably the RFC/Shiv combination on top of champs like Trist/Cait. Pretty stupid to get get chunked to half from 900 units away, even as a fellow ADC. Just knowing that if Trist/Cait get within 900 units, they can chunk you for half your life on a crit, and in Trist's case, follow up with a leap/bustershot/whatever, is stupid.

There is no way people around here think champs like Ashe, Varus, Kog, Jhin, Sivir, etc are OP and too much to handle. They are almost all literally dead the minute someone gets on them because they are immobile.

Vayne can be incredibly annoying to tank players. I ban her every game I play a tank just becuase I dont feel like dealing with it.

I dont understand why champs like Trist and Cait are designed the way they are. If this was a racing game, they would have all their stats maxed. You know how when you play a racing game, a car will have max speed, but poor handling. Another will have amazing handling, but less speed. One will have amazing acceleration, but lower speed, etc. Trist and Cait are like the supercars you unlock that have all their shit in the 90s. Why does the champs with the longest range, best seige potential, have so much self peel, so much damage, so much mobility. If they are seige champions, they should be fairly immobile. Think seige tanks in SC. I mean why does Trist have resets/rocket jump/buster shot peel/turret seige with E/Attack speed steriod? Why does cait need a net AND 500 traps, and ton of damage on 650 range? Would traps not be enough? Would 650 range not be enough? If you gave Fiddlesticks 700 range you could play his ass as ADC and be effective. Some ADCs do not have properly allocated power budgets. Look at sivir; she pays an arm and a leg for her R. Look at Ashe. She pays heavily in DPS for her ult. Even Lucian pays heavily for his mobility. Why does some ADCs pay absolutely nothing for their strengths?

And your trash criticism is based on what exactly? Some random "pro" match you saw where there was Zed/Yasuo/Vayne that didn't go legendary in the first five minutes? Well, I guess that proves those champs are fine then. The millions of players who think otherwise must all be wrong then.

they balance around reddit, not the boards

but both are full of silvers, so i guess that's no better
