The only thing that will make me quit the game is the balance team

Riot, why do you do this? Do you have something against me? You managed to nerf two mains who were faaaaar from being strong pick let alone OP.

You nerfed Skarner, who struggles in this meta already and then you say "nah, lets nerf his ultimate" then you buff ez mode champs like Zed and Riven.

You also nerfed Swain, of all the champions out there, Swain, why? how am i supposed to deal against popular mid picks like zed and Lux now?

And the funny part, you buff Lee Sin, Zed....It's like you are favoring the few pro players out there over the millions who want to enjoy a balanced game.

You are taking the wrong path Riot, we will see champs with 50% pick rates now.

They buffed Riven and Zed because they hit 43% and 42% winrates. Most champions who fall that low are buffed. You basically just complained that you would quit when they actually do their job somewhat correctly. If skarner was at 42% winrate would you complain? Would you say they are bad at balance if they buffed him?

Sad things is, been watching them do this for the past few years. They continue to act increasingly like politicians, giving bureaucratic excuses and shouting promises; it's disgusting & disheartening that they've turned their backs on the community that got them off the ground. Sure I'll miss the game when it goes under, but not for long when I remember the company that drove it into the mud. [zombie-brand-facepalm]

You have no clue what balance is (´・ω・`)

Wouldn't Lyte's team be able to make you quit, since they can permanent ban you?

[slayer-jinx-wink] Using this sticker since I know it is the most annoying one, I'm sorry. (I also used to main Teemo, so you know)

They buffed Riven because her itemization blows, you moron

Swain was so weak, he only one shoots squishes with single E use.

Remember, they are making a tv show. Exciting and "fun" for viewers is more important than someone like Swain being decent. No flash of sizzle to him, so if he became a strong LCS mid they would just have to nerf/re-work him.

I swear to the Gods, that the only reason Cassie wasn't nerfed along with the other Dot champions, is because she is pitiful right now , that if Riot nerfed her, the community backslash would be so great, that the only Riot, would be on the community's behave. And then they come with the "Champion diversity " talk, being that whenever a non popular champion enter the spotlight, boom , instanerfed. And the kicker is that Swain wasn't even in the spotlight, it was more Anivia and Brand and they still are major picks

yay another anti-zed/lee/etc fans...

With upcoming patch and DFT buff, he will deal 290 + 1.33 AP with single E use. This alone is broken as fuck for a single target, non-skillshot ability. As well you could use Q on him or W and deal even more, literally ripping things apart.

With grevious wounds nerf, new mastery, ROA buff and etc he is broken as much as brand.

Or the amount of bots in this game. In my last maybe 20 games I've had 5 bots on my team. It's pretty much an instant loss and a waste of 20+ minutes each game. Maybe some people think it's a dumb reason to quit, but after playing more years and spending a good amount of cash on this game, I have to quit because bots of all things. I still like the game, but it's too frustrating.

You know nothing about balance :l I don't even seem a point in an argument with the amount of salt and lack of information in this thread.
