outscaling is just poor game design

Don't care what someone wants to say about it is the way the game is designed, it is a poor design. if a team gets beat, not because of better skill, but only because some champions scale higher, that is just poor design.

Scaling mean there are champion that are the best in the late game because they are strong with items and levels but that means there are champion that are the best in the early to stop their scaling.

There is skill in both learning how to use early game power and learning how to not get destroyed by strong early game champions.

maybe u should beat them before you get outscaled

If you picked an early game comp and you couldn't abuse/acquire a lead to end the game, then yes, you deserve to get outscaled and lose.

I don't really think theres a way around that between items and ~140 champs

A champ like Katarina and other assassins have great scalings but they get outscaled because its unreliably to dump out damage against other full builds champs when you got 2k health to work with.

I don't really see a way of making Vayne Sivir KogMaw VeigarGangplank

Even with Pantheon Katarina Leblanc Draven Caitlyn Darius

in terms of power early, mid, and late.

The champ design would have had to been limited from the start with this in mind. The way items work would have also needed to be changed. Basically, it wouldn't be league lol.

Who cares about aram? If you really care about how unfair everything is, then welcome to reality. Anyway, if you actually play it right, you can still win a teamfight against those champions in the late game.

It is good design it means you can create a team comp that is not reliant on just the early game or just the late game. If it was not for a differential in scaling then everything woudl be like lvl 1 .... I mean if you don't like scaling why even have items or lvls just go full non scaling lvl 1 all game!

Sorry to hear you're allergic to strategy.

Outscaling isn't inherently bad design. It is when you have a character that shines in all phases but a character weak early bUT strong late is balance. Crush them before the get going. The sam goes for the other side of the coin strong early weak late survive them.
