It's been a long time since Riot has created a mechanically simple champion. 1 purpose for each ability or an overall easy kit, the good ol' days. Sure these champions are interesting, but we don't need every new champion to be a Taliyah.

Kled is pretty simple and straight forward
Has a pretty simple kit, but is not that easy to pull off
Simple, easy, straight foward.
Simple, easy, straight forward.
I don't really see the issue, honestly :v
Vhan87656 votesWhoa, whoa, whoa! Since when is Janna simpler than Cho'Gath?

redfeenix1 votesLol you noticed that sneaky edit eh
BananaSlayerAMO4 votesIt's just that many mechanics have been repeatedly used in the game already, so Riot feels the need to invent new ones. I believe that the community overall would not mind mechanics being reused though in return for easier champions.
Zane Zephyr4 votesI think the main problem in making a "simple" champion is trying to make one that differs from what we already have.
Malfini3 votesSo you want a literally point and click champion sold for 6300-IP? I'm not against releasing a real or genuine newbie champion but at 6300-IP is too much.
redfeenix2 votesDude you're gonna love new yorick. Very easy / boring playstyle. Enjoy
Astôlfo1 votesB-B-But Witch-sempai, according to the Boards, every new champion is the most broken piece of freelo busted overpowered imbalanced shit that exemplifies Riot's balancing team failures that's so braindead easy that even Garen is harder than them and thus takes no skill or knowledge to win with said champion.
And Boards are never illogical or wrong, right?
Reikken1 votesWhile I think you picked very bad examples, I agree with your overall message.
Beldair1 votesWe just need a giant hand champion with 2 abilities...call him Master Hand XD
DarkRitual1 votes is mechanically very simple.
Boulderox1 votestechnically many champions have simple abilities by themselves, with a few off cases like passive, 
w/r,
but strictly speaking, many champs aren't too mind bogglingly complicated...
.>_> complaining taliyah is complicated...
3 passives
rework is burger king kids meal of too much free shit.. (damage, DoT magic damage, aoe, heals, tanky, steroids, resets, true damage, grabs, slows, 
tenacity and he's got almost everything)
But sure >_> taliyah isn't simple... but there are worse cases...
Zane Zephyr1 votesDarius's passive is physical damage now

wow, i guess i didn't see that bit, thanks.
inplane1 votesWe've already got rid of almost everything that was unique and mechanically challenging in Taliyah. What else does the community want? We've got rid of her old casting paradigm. We've got rid of Lockout. We've got rid of E's relevance against MR building bruisers like Yasuo and Graves. We've turned her into a Q bot. What else are we going to do? Disable her ability to ride Weaver's Wall?
Sukishoo1 votesWhen is Janna simple period? Try a much much lower support, like Morgana XD
Wyrmblade1 votesTaliyah is really simple though, the only real hard part is making good use of your ult.
