I am seriously beginning to question the competence of the people who design/update content

For the past year I have seen nothing but garbage.

Cassiopeia - Apparently she was oppressive and a bully but also flawed. Now she is completely useless and the things you claimed you wanted to fix didn't get fixed.

Kha'Zix- Nothing wrong with him yet you nerf his Q, frontload his damage onto it and make it so that you need to use the isolation mechanic to do damage with it IN A TEAM GAME where nobody will be away from a minion, neutral monster or champion unless they're stupid. People start using his W instead then you nerf that to shit and leave it at.

Yasuo - The last 3 nerfs were completely unnecessary. Apparently an assassin with a good early and lategame was problematic. I guess Zed was hiding in the shadows when you had that brilliant idea.

Talon - A niche pick champion with a silence that requires him to jump into his enemies face and gives him a second to do something. Nah lets get rid of that for no reason at all. Zed says hi again.

I can keep listing failures but It would take too long.

I'll add one more though. The jungle rework. You claim to be fixing the problem of "diversity" and giving people "choices". I suppose you think removing sustain from the jungle items as a good way of doing that so that any jungler without built in sustain is unplayable therefore leading to Warwick either being picked or banned everygame.

Get your shit together or you'll end up like JaGex. Making decisions nobody wants and executing them badly all the while claiming that you know what to do yet you don't do it.

Kha'Zix- Nothing wrong with him

....What? Kha has literally been a bigger problem child than Lee. If his Q is too strong, he becomes impossible to duel. Contrary to your belief, you're not always with a buddy. If his W is too strong, he gains godly clears and stronger cc. His E has actually generally been fine. And if his ult is too strong, he becomes a pseudo tank while still having the damage output of an assassin. And he's been a top pick DESPITE everything he's been hit with.

The issue you bring up with Talon, is that if he's behind, and he cutthroats his enemy laner, he's likely dead without the jungle's help... If he's ahead, the enemy laner IS dead...

That's FAR too binary for what we want from League... They want meaningful discourse and outplay potential throughout the spectrum of a game, not "oh, Talon got a kill, now he just got 4 more kills because Talon."

I don't personally agree with that nerf, but I think it's an issue with how his kit works, not whether he had a silence or not.

Then again, Riot never COULD get assassins right...

You have to remember that Riot prioritizes money over the happiness of their playerbase. This is completely obvious based on server stability, lack of assistance from all staff for any issue, etc. Can they make the servers better? Yes, their budget can more than handle that, but will they? Nope! That would cost more money and they want to keep that money. Can they hire a few more staff members to assist and reply to issues, problems and bug threads? Yes, but will they? Nope! A staff member or two more who will be dedicated to assisting the community would require them to pay someone. Again, they'd rather keep their money. Can they make the game more balanced than it already is? Of course! There are most likely Riot staff that know exactly what to do to balance the game, but a higher up is holding them back. Why? If you nerf the OP/Broken Champs, then people will have less of a reason to spend their money on them and/or their skins. The only reason they'd actually help any of their players is if it'd make them money. In the end, LoL will just be a disappointing memory when the servers shut down after Riot crosses the line.

TL;DR: It is 100% clear that Riot cares more about money, the money we gave them, than their playerbase. The only reason they'd actually help any of their players is if it'd make them money. In the end, LoL will just be a disappointing memory when the servers shut down after Riot crosses the line.

Well... Yes. A lot of their changes are questionable and rarely solve the core problem the first time(If ever).

zed does say hi, u see when he jumps on u, u can actually do something about it and press zhonyas to make sure he does 0 damage with his ulti. for talon it was either u get vision of him or ur adc is dead.

dude pls. all of those nerfs happened for a reason. please use real facts and not bullsquirt next time you decide to pout on the forums.

Kha Zix actually breaks the game whenever he's strong.

Lee Sin was never this ridiculous, people mostly want him nerfed because they are salty.
