Just creating this to say that all of the buffs, nerfs, and other gameplay changes are based a lot on the opinions of pro players and some experts from the balance team. Seems like nothing happens until a group of pro players thinks something isn't right or enough people on the higher tiers complain. Why is this? Because pro players bring money to Riot. Not because Riot is on shrooms, but because they are obligated to fulfill the desires of the people who make the money for Riot. Yes, we buy skins and RP, but the pros bring in thousands of more dollars. Just my two cents on the recent changes.

Wrongo.

The regular player population brings in the money. Who do you think pays for the pros? They have sponsors, but ultimately we pay their bills because our money is used for the server, for the artists, for the advertising, etc etc. The pros do NOT own this game, although they are very well on their way to doing so because of the switch from casual play to LEARN 2 PRO OR GTFO.

See, the thing about games like this, is that we can survive fine without the "pro" players. But the pro players can't survive without the regular user money and gameplay time. And if enough people are sick and tired of these ridiculous changes, they will leave, and take their wallets with them.

Real simple, and its worth a lot more than two cents of advice for Riot to start considering.

NEVER call "balance" employees "experts." The mass majority of them are the most unqualified and blatantly biased group of workers I've ever had the displeasure of witnessing. Most of them are matter-of-factly ranked in low elo and have proven time and again they have a complete lack of understanding of both basic gaming concepts as well as work ethic.
