What happened to the "Pushing ADC's out of the dominant role" goal that Riot set this season?

They seemed to enthusiastic about getting ADC's out of bot lane and opening that lane up to other roles yet they haven't really done anything to tone down ADC's at all.

No changes to ADC itemization yet
No changes to crit
No changes to sustain

No instead we are STILL stuck on the midlane and changing things and items about that lane that don't need to be changed. I really want to experience a league of legends where Marksman dont do everything. Where they don't do the most damage in game, and get the most kills in game, and have the most sustain in game, and are absolutely mandatory for every team no matter what. I doubt I'll ever get to experience that LoL anytime soon though, sadly.

If I recall correctly that's the big mid-season project.

Also they can't remove ADC's from bot, they can only open the lane to more picks. You could not play Jinx or Xayah mid, it wouldn't be viable. Marksmen are designed to be in a 2v2 so they will only ever be playable bot unless they as a class get a massive overhaul.

All saw play in other roles until Riot "fixed" them into one role each... or in some cases.. zero roles.

Nothing will ever be better than season 1-2. When the game wasn't "fixed" into zero creative options. The moment the company began designing their game based on the Korea meta.... it went to shit.

Everytime someone finds success on something something that doesn't fit Tank Top, Assassin Jungle, Control Mage Mid, Auto Attack ADC, Tank Sup..... Riot nerfs it until they don't.

How many tank jungle nerfs have we seen since season 5 now? 50? Then "Lets buff Cho!" Let's nerf every item Cho uses. Let's Rework Sej!" Let's nerf every item she uses. let's Buff Sej. Nerf more items. Let's Nerf Sej!

Seriously it feels like Rito is ran by a bunch of ADHD 15 year olds.

Seriously hire someone who hasn't worked for Blizztard that has a big enough dick to whip it out and say "We are doing THIS!" and stop changing gears every other patch.
