@Riot - Why do you mess with champs that are fine?

Aniva didn't need her ult ruined. Take down the E damage some, fixes that problem. Her ult had nothing to do with it. Making her ult suck only "fixed" the issue because her ult now, sucks.

Victor didn't need to be touched really. May e nerr some of the secondary laser damage, and the ult change was pointless, but basically he was fine.

Malhazar got screwed hard. His playstle is ruined, he's a jungle now? Wtf? Maybe could a love tapped visions but he hardly was a problem child. Champ ruined.

Morde, oh god. He got totally screwed to be a not lane champ, why in gods name? Only worked when op. Now basically has abandoned not lane, only played by hardcore morde fans. Totally ruined.

Vlad may have been a problem child, but he was far from top their and was at least still fun to play. Now, not very good.

Ryze. Going on rework three. At least this one you keep trying on, but learning the same champ over and over gets old.

Sion. OK you got one mostly right.

Stop messing with champs that don't need it.

Are you trying to say Sion was fine?

As an Anivia main, I feel like Anivia is stronger with her modified Ultimate. She's much more influential in team fights than she used to be.

That being said, Riot basically made Vladimir, Cassiopeia, Swain and Vel'Koz worse after the MYMU.

I don't know what you're talking about when you say Malzahar was ruined, he's currently God-tier and has an 86%+ ban ratio in ALL ELOS

the Vlad rework was a massive disappointment, it was entirely done to pander to Vlad's opponents without a balanced perspective... basically it made an unviable but fun champion into an even less viable champion that is no longer much fun to play

There is a point when you are trying too hard to make champs unique, and often makes them less viable, or less fluid, life less fun, or just alienates the people who actually played them.

The reason RIOT makes changes to champions that seem to be fine is that RIOT takes the approach of always trying to keep the game fresh. Champions that go untouched eventually get changed simply because they have been the same for "too long". It isn't a balance issue at all.

Malzahar is not screwed. He is extreme OP now and he can solo dragon in lvl 2 or 3 and when he uses R he gets a kill
