Aaaaaand we're removing another 2 champions from playability because they're unfun to play against.

Our starting point is that it’s good to see new picks getting used in different positions provided they’re not crowding other options out.

Solo Lane Pyke, gone. Sona in the ADC role, most propably gone.

Both of them pretty damn shitty to play against which itself isn't a problem but unfortunately they were played in mid and bot (AKA not top lane) So we of course go ahead and put them in the abyss of unplayability, how nice.

Tahm Kench single handedly making 50% of the top lane roster unplayable when he is picked? Nah we need diversity here, he is fine.

Mages running over top lane and basically removing any melee from the lane that can't deal with them? Surely unique picks worth preserving, they aren't crowding out any picks what do you mean?

Top lane containing the most toxic crap to play against rivaling the silence era of DFG Leblanc? Just play safe lmao.

At this point it's not even funny how top lane is left in the dirt, it's just sad.

Sona had...like a 56% win rate?

50%?

More like 90%.

Well, it's about the only thing Riot is capable of doing right anyway... dumpstering a champion.

Mages are not ruining top lane if you think there are then idk what game you're play since basically no mage goes top lane.

Like people have been saying mages are strong top for fucking a good while now and you know what NONE OF THEM ARE POPULAR AT ALL.

Also yeah tahm is making champions unplayable is that why he is basically nonexistent in the most competitive region.

Solo lane pyke goes against what his weakness are and what he is suppose to do as a champion and same with sona.

Why did you have to make your thread invalid with that wrong claim?

Pyke got played in the top lane as a solo laner, so this is obviously not true.

Pyke needs dumpstered, so I won't argue that. I wish he was deleted from the game but that will never happen.

Sona doesn't need nerfs. She's only strong because the pros are abusing the Taric bot lane with her, and using matchups that she excels in. She hasn't received any buffs in a long time.

More mind boggling balance decisions made by Riot but there's not much we can do since they don't listen to us anyway.
