Why, would that somehow add the missing element from the game? If you're wondering the missing element is called fun and you can only find it by playing normal games with a premade and pub-stomping the newbies on the other team. Oh I guess you can have fun trolling your own team though, but just trying to play this game alone is about as fun as shoving wood coffee stirrers in your pee pee hole

So that they can understand how frustrating the game is, perhaps formulating a way to reasonably fix the game that they've butchered.

Funny, it's an actual job requirement at Riot.

And some in the balance team are former eSports professionals that played in LoL tournaments

Yeah maybe from season 1 when they used to play.
