Dear Riot: Please Balance Your Game!
Hello folks,
It's no secret that some champions are just plain stronger than the others. Every patch, there is a rotating set of ~10 champions that are ban tier, and about ~25 champions that are below them, but still quite strong.
While I understand that this is supposed to let pro players focus on a small set of champs, it is incredibly frustrating and sometimes even disheartening for SoloQ players that want to play 'off-meta' champs! I'm not talking about Amumu support or anything, I'm talking about champions that are specifically designed to fill a role. For example, Garen is designed as a top-laner, yet there is absolutely nothing that Garen does that another champion can't do better. Garen is thus completely unviable above a certain ELO.
There are so many champs that just don't fit right now.
Though it's impossible to balance the game perfectly, please try to keep your champions at a more even power level!
