Obvious question no one is asking about older champs to new ones.

So Riot, I'm curious, why do we justify new champs and ADCS like Ka'sai and Xayah who can literally build one lethality item and 2-3 shot almost any non tank hero and then champions like Ashe and Jinx who literally have to position focus to be able to win a fight. I'm curious where the justification is give all adc champs the same statistics across all four abilities and allow the more skilled champ to win IMO.

Xayah literally hits from max distance for 120-124-344 then stuns, instantaneously? Same level and items Ashe, 72-77-111 with a drastically under leveled hard to hit through creeps aoe cone attack. I had a slowed Jax with no boots catch up to me with level 2 boots, thats a huge problem.

Also Singed? How is this dude not reworked, the idea of him is great the champ its self sucks. Easy things to fix him if the enemy is poisoned and you fling him it does increased damage and if you glue a poisoned target the duration on the poison is refreshed. It's so easy for champs to get away from him especially when every champ you come out with now a days has 2-3 built in flashes and dashes.

STOP making new champs and plz fix the old classics. It is not fair to go champs like Ashe,Jinx, Sivir and lose in champ select vs kai'sai, xayah, Aphelios.

Senna, - WTF are you thinking? An ADC support that climbs off lethality. Worst decision you have ever made. Her ult is Lux damage and CD with a built in root that is easy as pie to aim/hit and a heal/damage beam + an over powered escape ability. You guys know better than that. Come on.

I could go on, but i'll let you fix these issues first.

Xayah's root (not stun) is telegraphed. It doesn't happen instantaneously, it happens after a short delay when she has three feathers in the right spot to hit you. She needs to use at least two cooldowns (one to get feathers, and Bladecaller), spending a bunch of mana for a root that's easy to miss. Her position focus is much higher than that of Ashe or Jinx because of her reverse skillshots. Lethality Xayah isn't really a thing. She needs crit to scale.

Kai'Sa doesn't build lethality, period A large portion of her damage is magic damage, so lethality is wasted on her. If you're losing to lethality Kai'Sa, you're just bad.

Senna's ult does less damage than Lux ult with double-to-triple the cooldown, depending on rank. Her escape ability is the farthest thing from overpowered, it's on a long af cooldown with a long af delay and doesn't even hide her from enemies that get in her face. Her root is also on a delay. In fact, everything in her kit is on a long delay, including her autoattacks.

I don't think saying a champ is higher skill cap is justified for more dmg, you're literally the guy playing those champs so you don't want us to be right. The game is drastically unbalanced. A higher skill cap does not justify more dmg output, anyone can get good at champs playing them long enough, the issue is champs like Ashe are useless over champs like Xayah. A senna end game does more dps then an Ashe is a problem.

Did you miss that point like a month ago when Ashe was the best ADC in the game? A simple aa reset skyrocketed her from average to overpowered.

When somebody doesn't have to manage things like feather placement or ammo or missile locking, they can put much more of their attention on the basics and playing properly. There needs to be some kind of reward for mastering a difficult champion, otherwise people would just play the easiest thing for the same output.
