Please stop reworking characters

We all want fair and balanced game play but what many people dont want is for riot to "rework" a character. Many of us find a particular character very fun and the characters mechanics mesh well with our playstyles. Luckly league has many characters to choose from so almost everyone can find a few characters that they love to play. But... there is nothing more infuriating then having your loved character completely changed. Like i said, we all want balanced game play, tweek some numbers and cooldowns to bring the character inline with what is balanced. If you want a character with specific mechanics create a new character. Stop changing existing characters into something else. As a community we have now waisted our time learning a champ that no longer exists, spent money buying a champ we dont want, and in general are now frustrated playing this new character that is nothing like the character we fell in love with. Please riot, consider changing numbers and not reworking anymore characters, just add new characters to fill the void. Changing existing ones ruins the gaming experience and makes anyone who loved the former character very bitter. Every season ive seen character reworks and Starting with gragas Ive had more then 4 of my absolutely favorite characters reworked, some like gragas are not even meta for the original lane they started for rendering them unplayable for the people that bought them. The character rework is killing any drive i have to play the game and ive lost many of the characters i loved. So i beg you riot, please adjust numbers and cooldowns, and stop reworking characters...
