Riot, how aren't you seeing the problem with these interactions

They completely fuck up the game. Having both of these people on one team gives that team a massive advantage in gameplay. Guess what's going to happen to duoqueue ranked? I'm going to see these champs in every goddamn game because every duo is going to spam them. So, yes, they'll get banned,but what's the point of even making a champ if you already know it will be banned in about 90% of all games. Also, what are the odds of getting both champs on the same team in the first place? Ya know, the above issue may not even happen because if a player sees the enemy pick one of these, they'll probably just counterpick the other one. look, nice thought on the design, but there is no concievable way this will work. And let's not get into the interactions. The recall especially; it's basically a free teleport if you have fingers to type to your teammate "back right here". Dash-heal is broken. Etc, etc. For comparison, this is like giving talon and zed +20% AD when they're on the same team. But NOOO that would be too OP so let's hide it behind a bunch of "interactions".

We all know these champs with their flashy animations and "cute" play style are just for your pro play, to get more people watching and spending. I would like to see one champ that lasts more than a week without being permabanned and gutted (literally EVERY SINGLE RECENT CHAMPION RELEASE except Jhin) or falling out of existence (EVERY rework (yorick, ryze, galio etc).

yup, this is 100% for lcs, but if one is even the least bit strong, they probably won't get banned but seperately picked or countered i can 100% see the situations in lcs 1st picks get the male, other side drafts a team to counter the duo and they either don't pick the duo or whatever its definitely a doublepick phase tho

How does a lightweight Disruptor getting increased attack speed and auto attack damage and the ability to leap further to one specific character, and the ability to share recalls with that one specific character, give a massive advantage?

And you can't compare it to giving two characters from completely different regions bonus stats - because this isn't bonus stats, it's shared abilities, and shared lore. As far as I can see, you're only complaining exclusively for the fact that these champions have built-in synergy, and not the actual strength of the synergy.
