Here's an interesting video on game balance

Since GP is always talking about how the game is or isn't properly balanced, I thought I'd share this video for everyone's consideration. It's an interesting take on things. Terms like overpowered and underpowered miss the mark and what's more important is getting rid of god-tier champs (as they invalidate other champs) and getting rid of garbage tier champs (because they are invalid choices).

Two good examples of this in LOL are Ryze and Azir. In pros hands, these champs are god tier so riot has to keep them perpetually nerfed... and in ryze's case perpetually reworked.

I think most people get that. Balancing anything that isn't a static undeveloping single player game is hard, and even then it is still hard.
