Oops You Did It Again

Everybody hated Kalista. Everybody hated Bard. Now everybody hates Ekko.

Who's the last champ we all genuinely liked upon release just based on their KIT ? (keep in mind, I'm excluding art, story, concept, etc. and mainly discussing the balance of what the champ actually does in game"
Balancing team is dropping the ball hard I think.

If you were to believe the forums, none of them. Ever.

It's not the balance team, it's the design team dropping the ball. I don't care if these last few can be balanced. I hate their kit, and they're poorly balanced. I don't want them to exist, but the salt on the wound is that they're too strong.

Here's a thought. The Boards are overall bad at making balance decisions. They ask something to be buffed, then its OP. They ask for a nerf, nothing happens or the champion becomes UP. Almost no good balance decisions have come from the Boards.

I think it might of been Vel'Koz/Braum, or maybe it was just me that really likes Vel'Kozs kit lol. Also I don't rem how the community liked Azir when he was first released, I'm assuming very negative since I rem him getting nerfed quite hard in the past.

everybody hated bard? sure, maybe, but for a massively different reason

everybody hated bard because the people playing him sucked

everybody hated kalista because she dashes on every auto attack

very different kind of hate

Everyone hates everything, honestly.

Though, this time there's more reason. Ekko is release LeBlanc/Xin Zhao tier right now. I'm surprised riot let this happen. he's clearly overtuned.

The last liked champion?

Braum. Everyone had a good feeling about him when he was first released. What do you expect? His first act before we even knew his name was saving the life of a Poro. His second act? Giving said Poro a mustache.

no one hated bard.

everyone thought kalista sucked balls.

Ekko has a 1.3 ap ratio on a single spell

Ekko. I also like bard and kalista and azir and gnar.

The boards hate everything, pretty much. Any champion's kit is either overloaded, overpowered, boring, or useless.

Everyone loves to play as Bard. He's great fun. But its rare to find people who want him on their team.
