POLL: Do you think the balance this season overall has been good?

Electro522··6 votes·349 views

Honest, simple, yes or no question.

And, I would like everyone who sees this to vote on it, for I am genuinely curious.

The people who do not like the meta are always the loudest, so, we normally get a skewed perception on how the community feels about the meta.

You don't need to give any reasoning towards your decision. Hell, you don't have to say even a single word. Just click "Yes" or "No".

And if you are going to say something, please, just keep it civil.

Also, I don't normally do this, but I would like to ask for upvotes in order to allow the largest number of people to see this. This is a poll after all, and a poll always gives better results when more people on vote on it.

Thank you, and good luck in your games. Electro

Overall yes. Everyone had impact at some point this season. For example ADCs were joke on start of season, yet dominant near end.

Adcs were never a joke. People just cry for no reason about roles that were already broken. Nothing really changed about adc except ardent censor buffs

Well not really. Remember that BOTRK got buffed, IE got price reduced, Statikk Shiv got buffed, Deaths Dance got buffed, GA now gives AD, Runaans got buffed. And a lot of ADCs got buffed too. We are talking here about WHOLE season, not just last few patches.

Ok. Don't know why I'm being downvoted.

Do people really dislike asking for upvotes that much?

Blatant bias is crazy.

Low pickrate, Average win rate, still gets nerfed.

Meanwhile Yasuo sits at high pick/ban rate and nothing happens.

Besides ardent censor being dominant for too long and the Galio, Janna oversight it has been a pretty solid season balance wise.

Besides Ardent, pretty balanced

I would say the completely unneeded Ahri nerf Riot just threw out that completely made her kit into a garbage kit and made her the worst midlane champ in game.

So...I understand you're an Ahri main.....I understand that you have one of the hardest crushes on Ahri anyone in the League community has ever seen.....

...but why do you consistently harass and whine on these boards about a single nerf that she received that didn't really affect her much anyway. Not only did it not affect her much anyway, but they also compensated for the nerf by putting a little extra power into her E and R.

In my opinion, she's not as good as she used to be not because of a single, small nerf, but because of the meta we are in. She is a burst mage, almost crossing the line to a full blown assassin. The number of tanks, shields, heals, etc. do not favor her. Once shields fall out of meta again (it is not a question of if, but when they will fall out) I am 95% certain she will rise back up in popularity.

OP.GG has her at a 49% win rate Champion.GG has her at a 51% win rate with a 7% play rate Lolking has her at a 50% win rate

Also, Champion.GG has her at a 55% win rate with more than 200 games played.

Even though she is as not as good as she used to be, everywhere you look says she is actually EXTREMELY balanced, and is probably one of the most balanced champions in the game right now.

So.....I just have to ask......why are you so upset all the time?

It did affect her a ton. She lost around 6% winrate from the tiny nerf that didnt even affect her.

The balancing was ok-ish this season I'd say. I personally didn't like Taliyah's mana nerfs just because she was too good in pro-play.
