@Riot, why do you hate Cassiopeia so much?

http://imgur.com/D37R6hd I'd like to know why you've ignored Cassiopeia's plight in a meta dominated by sheer mobility for almost two seasons now, it's as if she doesn't exist.

It surprises me how many champions were affected by your recent patch changes and yet you've forgotten about Cassiopeia once again. One champion who you were going to look into for potential changes a good year ago, to be precise. Both Ricklessabandon and Meddler once showed interest in doing something with her just to be never heard of again.

What has become of those concepts and ideas? Is she doomed to decay along with other immobile/traditional mages until she finally gets a rework in maybe 4 years? Or will you finally decide to give her the necessary QoL-changes she truly deserves? Her ultimate is inherently flawed and the same goes for her clunky mechanics. How can you pretend she's in a healthy state if no one even considers her worth the trouble of playing?

Also, using the @ symbol does not link anyone to this thread.

Riot employees know where to look my friend.

Riot doesn't hate her, she's just facing the problem that a lot of the old school mages are suffering.

Ignoring their issues isn't going to help them, that's for sure.

I just don't like how they give us false hopes for over a year just to do nothing in the end.

Me either. They promised to fix bruisers this year, but that hasn't materialized either.

I think cassiopeia is pretty good but requires a lot of skill, so in order to give a little boost so people i think some modern day mana changes would be nice

There's already 6 threads on the state of Cassiopeia.

If you had posted all of this in one thread rather than keeping posting new ones, you would get more views.

As it is, the excessive postings makes people less likely to look into the thread: *' I have already seen this before, Why look again? What has changed?' *

I already tried that, it even made it to Post of the Day. Also let's not forget the other one which I linked in this thread's starting post, it already lists all the reasons you need to know about the current situation. But none of those threads recieved the response I've hoped for - instead they sent some people from champion design to comment on a potential VU. Not a single mention about her mechanics or gameplay problems - this kind of selective posting has been going on for a VERY long time.

I've literally tried everything but apparently everyone else couldn't care less about this champion. Riot has been lying to her playerbase for an entire year now, you think I'm simply going to forget about that? The least I can do is raise awareness about this insane neglection. Since these boards make it almost impossible to keep a thread alive, I'm constantly forced to create new ones.

There are many other champions who are worse than Cassi, or are less fun to play/play against.

Sion has needed a rework for God knows how long Urgotsame problem as Sion **Akali **has no counterplay: if her stats are higher she wins. Galio's last buff was before Cassi was created, in V1.0.0.4. Even then, it was 10 seconds of his ult CD. Taric- VU needed more than anything. Shaco's rework/mechanical change is still in the works. Viktor needs changes to do anything relevant before level 11.

Cassiopia is in a much better place than many champions, and Riot's efforts reflect that. Cassi is probably around 10th in line. It will happen, but it takes time.
