Get rid of the game-breaking cancer that is Assassins so mages can go back mid, I am tired of wanting to enejoy a game as an ADC and having to deal with either Zyra or Brand - I honestly don't know which of the two is goddamned worse. Zyra, who has so much damage on one root which is really wide-ranged as it is and has practically no mana costs because of her plants, or Brand, who is just an aggravating presence. Fix this game. Start with the small things, locate the root of the problems. The biggest complaint at the moment is damage, the roles that exploit the damage spike the most are Assassins. I don't want to win my lane so the 0/3 Zed can come bot and still murder me while missing all of his abilities because item 3147 - which, now that I mention it, why the hell does this thing impact control wards? I don't want to waste 75G on a ward to protect myself from the jungler if assassin #145 can just 1shot it and insta-gain 30 gold while I can't punish him for it.

Brand and Zyra aren't in bot because they can't hang in mid. If that was the case they would be neither mid nor bot.

They are bot because they do something well there that other champs can't so as well, which is keep the opponents from farming with poke over minions.

If you just don't want them bot drastically cut their mana or mana regen and brand's W and Zyra's E and Q. However, I like the fact that there are more options to play as supports than just enchanters and tanks, even if I don't use them.

Zyra and Brand going support is because they can't mid lane for many reasons

Lux was just kicked out of bot lane tho

Riot should never do anything to push any sort of meta. If people want to take things that aren't adc and support bot, they need to be able to. It doesn't need to be a good idea, but it needs to be possible.

In silver this is going on, am i rite? This is living proof why the yi nerfs are completely frustrating and need revert.
