I am almost amazed when

...I log into a rotating game mode and see Sona enabled. For fuck's sake, Riot. She regularly reaches, like, 70% winrate an ARAM alone. A permanent game mode. URF turns her way the fuck up to 11, and on every other game mode she reaches cancerous levels.

Granted, SR is what's the onus of balance, and admittedly Sona is not overwhelming there, but map-specific nerfs have a precedence. Please, tone down Sona on non-SR maps.

Can't disagree. Have played sona on one for all and it was incredibly oppressive.

RGMQ isn't meant for balance, its for shenanigans like Full Ap Pantheon Urf nuking people when they spanw and dieing in the process. Accept it, embrace it, enjoy it.

Unfortunately, Riot's done away with map-specific nerfs. Supposedly they'll consider other maps while continuing to focus balance on SR.

It's an incredibly absurd decision when you consider that map-specific balancing originally came about because SR-focused balance was absolutely terrible at addressing outliers for other modes. Riot's just perpetuating the vicious cycle of "Riot ignores non-SR modes, so players ignore non-SR modes, so Riot ignores non-SR modes."
