two types of players
There is really two types of players in this game. Those that play the flavor of the month strong champs, build the most broken items and win most of their games... Then theres the other side, where people play for fun, and go off meta builds and champs, build items no one sees and makes strange plays that no one expected. Sure the second group loses more, but they are having fun, and really all the "Not being used" nerfs (boot enchants for example) , only effect those players that are in the minority. If Riot continues on this path to taking away choices that allow players to customize their play experience, making the game much more linear, its going to ruin the depth of this game.
