why is tank fizz still not nerfed? why is lucian still broken? why the qss changes? im going to study game design pretty soon, and this is just a joke what riot is doing to their game. not much to write here, just take a look at the "gameplay" boards is enough. well, my new pc is coming soon, so ill do what all of my friends are doing FKN BUY OVERWATCH! if riot promotes to play more with friends, why are they all leaving then?

that's funny because game design has nothing to do with game balance on a competitive level.

  1. Fizz was just nerfed on the PBE
  2. Stop blaming Riot just because you're salty. http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff517/ryik7/Bruh_zpsm7bocdce.png
  3. Riot gives context you know, you don't need to ask why. "The QSS and Mercurial Scimitar active has two uses: cleansing crowd control (Amumu ult) and purging combat debuffs (Zed ult). These cases differ in that crowd control is setup, while combat debuffs are the payoffs to such setup. When you cleanse CC, the enemy needs to lock you down again to aggress on you, but that tends to be a pretty reasonable ask. By contrast, cleansing a combat debuff wipes the applicator's primary means of fighting you. So, those champs are pressured to snowball before their effects become meaningless, while their opponents are forced into buying QSS even if it's incredibly inefficient to do so. This leads to destructive effects on game balance which we've left unanswered for too long. With the understanding that there may be outliers we need to address, we're unshackling combat debuff champs from their quicksilver collars.

ACTIVE EFFECT: The actives of Quicksilver Sash and Mercurial Scimitar now only remove crowd control debuffs" 4. Game balance=/=Game design 5. Gameplay boards are always salty. There's literally nonstop complaints year-round about literally anything. Every season there are those that say they wish it was like (insert older season here) despite the boards having been full of complaining in the season mentioned, often even by the very person saying they wish it was X season. People like you, who use the boards solely as an outlet to complain about their salt with nothing constructive to actually say, are the reason it's so vitriolic. 6. You're late to the party. 7. Because most players are antisocial losers who don't want to play with their friends (or can't) and are scared of change. Or so I'm told. I don't actually play ranked, so what do I know?

btw Overwatch uses a dynamic queue-only ranked system

So... you have yet to study Game Design, but you already think you understand enough to weigh in and say they aren't balanced?

Also, I can make it PERFECTLY Balanced.

One Champion. Done.

Sound like a fun game? Doesn't to mean, but it sure as hell is balanced.
