What is Riots stance on Champion Counters, with the current path you guys are headed

With the League of Legends Game Design Team making it so that higher skill capped champions are either sent to the gutter or removing the skill differential. What is your stance on hard counters. Such as Ziggs vs Malzahar. At all points in the game, Malzahar voidlings die to any one Ziggs ability. Maybe not true once you get to 40 minutes + with gathering storm.

What I mean by removing the skill differential is. They are removing aspects of certain champions because to do that certain thing requires more skill. (TP Cancelling because of how strong it was in Korea/China), Ryze, Kalista, Azir, etc. Making it so that, because you are a worse player, you are allowed to feel the same as a better rated player. This is all to try to get more players to come back as well. Which is really frustrating because this is a massive slap to all high elo players.
