I Graded Patch 7.2 and Patch 7.3 Based on Science.... TL;DR They didn't do what Riot wanted!

Hey guys! :D
NostraTeemo here with my VERY FIRST batch of Alpha analytics on Patch 7.2 and 7.3. Did Riot's patches work? Since there's a lot of science behind this, I'll make it short:
- No, they didn't work for over 50% of changed champions
- But Riot is pretty good at flagging champions that need buffs and nerfs
- Many champions that were nerfed were actually somehow buffed, and many champions that were buffed got nerfed
- Using current data science methods, it's actually impossible to tell how a patch will pan out (NEED NEW SCIENCE, dw I'm on it)
- rito pls hire me
Enjoy, and watch out for upcoming analytics!
