Do you remember when Riot used to release a champion every 2 weeks?

And the champion would either be completely broken XinZhao or just straight up garbage tier for 6 months Syndra ? (Riot eventually recognizes the champion is useless and gives him/her a buff in 3 different patches)

And now Riot releases a champione every 6 months and they either are completely broken Ekko or just straight up garbage tier for 2 weeks Bard ? (Riot quickly recognizes the champion is useless and gives him/her 3 buffs in one single patch)

#Well, what changed?


incase someone comes here saying "syndra was OP b4 nerfs"

Out of all the champions that were released, Syndra was probably the one who had it worst.

Unlike Bard who just doesn't have a defined role or Rengar who was just clunky as shit, Syndra had an actual Role and actually Worked!

But she would use Dark Sphere twice and immediately go OOM.

Didn't Syndra have a 25% win rate upon release? That's crazy.

i can't even imagine a league without bard anymore. he brought such a cool flair to the game. the champion really makes the game experience that much more magical.

im surprised you didn't mention reksai on release. she was way op. I think all new champions too strong underpowered or even balanced needs 1 month to really settle and find itself.

Are...are you seriously comparing Ekko to release Xin...? Or release LB? Or release Vayne?

You don't know the meaning of broken on release...
