Riot: Are win rates a source?

are win rates a deciding factor for nerfs and changes? I'm curious about why riot uses win rate in all their posts.

Ultimately this post: http://oce.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/features/dynamic-queue-and-future-league

and why do you not compare solo players to dynamic teams?

Will it show that solo players routinely lose?

where is the rest of the information?

Champion winrates are a good baseline for balancing that illustrate trends. For instance, a champion with a high pickrate and abnormally high winrates is likely too strong, likewise a champion with a low pickrate and low winrates is likely weak.

Winrates for players in general are a reliable stat.

And they have compared winrates of solo players vs dynamic. They were basically equal.
