CertainlyT

I like to think(and hope) that CertainlyT actually tries to make balanced, fun champions(besides Kalista, of course) I think that he was driven to make Kalista because the community(including me) flamed about his other champions, thinking he wants to ruin the game or something. At least he tried, give him credit for that

I don't doubt that he tries to make fun champions, and there's no way hes actively trying to ruin the game. However some of his champs are easily my least favorite champs to play against. Most of his champs have things in there kit that require the rest of the kit to be nerfed into unviablility to balance (Infinite dashes, an execution ult that used to reset, free shield for walking around, shield that negates every projectile in the game, double crit for no reason). He doesn't need to fired, he just needs more oversight so he stops overloading kits.

Funny how you listed whole Yasuo kit.

I'd take team full of CertainlyT's champions than to lane aganist fucking Xypherous's Lulu or Fizz.

Nah, he needs to be fired. He's terrible for the health of the game.

I like that he tries to make fun, interesting champs, but god.... my sweet jesus are they not balanced. Often results in them being nerfed, which additionally sometimes resulting in them feeling garbage-y to use.

Remember he doesn't dictate numbers and those are often most nerfed.

Kalista is easily the worst of them. She's hell for melee champs.

Well, you know what they say about hope.

Headhonchkrow, it's unfair to assign motivations to people in arguments, even if the motivation is "positive". We have to look at the evidence when talking about balance and one thing that a lot of people dislike is that the champions have free things in their kit like armor pen that change nothing about how the champions play and serve only one ostensible purpose: to make the stronger than others. "At least he tried, give him credit for that" We can give credit for trying, that's fine. But there's a limit to it, like everything else. If I have a kid who "tried" to help me by going to get me something at the grocery store when I am sick but ended up putting the car through the garage, the credit for "trying" doesn't really count.

Would someone post those oft referenced quote(s) about how CTD said he only wants his champs to be the best? They keep getting repeated.
