Riot, Your Actions Don't Match Your Words

You say you want to balance both pro play and solo queue equally, but you're focusing entirely on pro play balance that has entirely negative impacts on solo queue.

If you actually cared about solo queue, champions like Janna and Warwick, who are extremely high pick and win rate champions in solo queue, would have been nerfed at least 2 patches ago; but since they aren't relevant to pro play, you do nothing. You wouldn't have let Ardent Censor be broken for 6 months. You would have given Fighter/Bruisers/Top Lane the attention/rework you promised them 2 seasons ago.

Instead, you cater to less than .01% of the playerbase, and the people who watch them, over the other 99.99% who also play this game, and honestly I can't see myself continuing to play this game if you continue put pro play above every other aspect of this game. While you argue that pro play viewship is important, very few of those who watch it don't play; the rest like to see the best of the best playing the same game as them, but if they stop enjoying playing the game, they will stop watching pro play.

It should be incredibly obvious that pro play needs to be balanced separately. Forcing champions into the gutter for everyone besides pro play is incredibly unhealthy for the game, especially for the ordinary players that like champions that are abused by pro play. The best players in the world should be able to adapt to a slightly different set of rules, and if they can't, are they really the best players in the world?

I'm not really sure what you're trying to say with this.
