Why on earth do some champs on the new TFT target randomly?

I can understand Ivern, who shields the lowest HP ally. That makes sense, just like old Lulu.

But why on earth do Veigar, Kog'Maw, and Syndra, among other champions, target enemies randomly!?

That makes absolutely no sense and seriously hurts their usability in a meta where Summoners are god tier. Also you said you were going to do away with RNG, but here we are today, alongside a really dumb Woodland which gives you a random champion, and sometimes it doesn't even work.

Riot, you didn't do what you said you were going to do and dial back RNG. You've just made other enemies even stronger because despite Mage being a potentially strong design point, the purpose is defeated completely when they target their enemies randomly!

I wouldn't mind it SO much if Veigar would actually at least one-shot Summons. Having a Tier 3 Mage 6 Veigar fire off two shots at Yorick ghouls that don't even die because they're not champions sucks.

RNG will forever be a factor in games. you cant do away with it entirely. i mean % chance is RNG in itself. if they made it a sure thing then whats the point of needed specific units? same with targeting. an if you didnt have some RNG, the meta would be strictly defined. I mean.... if Veigar targeted 100% highest HP or lowest, things like Predator would run amok. if anything, I suggest centering the RNG, make them priorities Champions over other units like minions/summons.
