Riot Games really don't care anymore

You must have read a lot of posts on the Boards and Reddit about how Jhin is an obnoxious champion nowadays because of the ridiculous movement speed he gets per auto attack coupled with other stuff like Stormrazor, Hail of Blades etc.

Right, so he is a major problem because we all thought Jhin was an immobile ADC, but he runs like an F1 car every auto attack.

There is a post on the boards right now on the front page as we speak and the title is called "Why the fuck is Jhin out running Hecarim right now?".

There is a Rioter Comment on this post. Read it by clicking on the link then come back here.

This is exactly the words of somebody that is part of the champion design/balancing team department of Riot Games. This shows that they don't even care any more about balancing the game.

But what would you expect from a balance team that randomly decides to buff Irelia even though she is a broken tier champion in competitve.

People have been complaining about Jhin and Stormrazor + Hail of Blades for quite a while but then these people, that we give our money to, to make the game better is just taking a joke on a serious balancing issue.

Actual pathetic people that have taken over this game and ruined it day by day.

Nerfing something like this will just bring up more issues, compared to doing it in the preseason, where nothing else gets mega affected by it (take good ol midseason for example this year of a bad example of doing huge changes).

THEY know he's a issue, the fact is they can't do much about it till preseason.

"randomly decides to buff Irelia even though she is a broken tier champion in competitve." The word skill should be like, plastered all over that. She got a buff to minion damage to make up for the lack of base damage her q has in general. Mind you, the pros just mainly play her mid because top still has preference over good durable bruisers and tanks with good engage.

They saw the results from midseason, and idk why anyone is surprised right now, but I pretty much recall them saying they wont make huge balance changes during the second half of the season due to how unstable midseason became.

"They don't care." If they didn't this game would have died when Fortnite and PUBG came up to popularity. Take the recent post that gives us a look into some preseason changes. Sure, the turret one was warranted for a good long while, but its happening none the less.

Since when was Jhin supposed to be an immobile ADC? He's always been fast.
