Why Riot can't release a simple champ with point and click abilities and no skillshots, like pantheon, old akali etc? Why every new champ must have 394393494349 dashes, skillshots, shields, heals abilities to steal ultimates, summoner spells etc?

Yuumi and Mordekaiser are both very simple Characters with easy to pick up Kits.

people didn't want point and click abilities because they were unskilled.

Yuumi and Qiyana are pretty simple. Even Sylas is simple. "Nuh uh they have dashes and uhh mechanics!"

All of Qiyanas elements stun so i mean woohoo. And yes, the melee APfighter/AD Assassin have dashes. Wow almost like uhh. Thats a standard feature of the class.... pantheon and Wukong have dashes too

The issue with point and click champions is that their kits must be very tuned so as to not make them deal too much damage with point and click - they basically get relegated to supporting roles within the team, no matter what role they are designed for - because they can’t do damage. Point and click damage may be easy, but League isn’t supposed to be easy - champions have different skill caps but point and click entire kit is just too easy.
