The Future of Camille: What Will Inevitably Happen

This has happened over and over and over and over again. It's no surprise. Riot never learns. I haven't played a single game as Camille but I can tell you EXACTLY what will happen in the months after she is released. Mark my words. She will be overpowered on release, she will have a high ban rate, and then she will be repeatedly nerfed until she is barely picked anymore and left in a gutter for at least a year. Why? because she is yet ANOTHER overpowered tanky bruiser with a grossly overloaded kit that will be completely broken and be a major balance issue because they have too much damage and too much utility while building mostly defense and 1-2 damage items. Just like Lee/Irelia/Ekko/Xin/Jayce/Elise/Nidalee before her. And yet again riot will just stare blankly back at us and shrug their shoulders and say "gee guys, we just don't know what happened" as they make the exact same mistake for the 100th time, like a shitty roommate who is surprised every time the rent is due.

Don't get me wrong, she looks cool and very fun to play, but when the question isn't "what does she do", but "what DOESN'T she do", there are painfully obvious balance problems. Just to go down the list, Camille has:

A self shield A self Heal 2 AA resets A move speed buff An Attack Speed buff Physical Damage Magic Damage True Damage (a LOT of it) % max hp damage % current hp damage AOE slow AOE stun Inescapable box + AOE shove THREE DASHES Short Cooldowns Oh, and untargetability.

Can you say "overloaded kit"? How about "impending massive balance problem" and "permabanned" and "purposefully nerfed into oblivion until they're not even good because the instant they're viable they're overpowered"? Yes. Yes you can say that. You can also say "Riot is full of idiots who have no idea how to design their game and make the exact same screwup on an embarrassingly regular basis".
