Point and Click Silences Should Not Be In The Game

Why not just have an ability that turns off my mouse and keyboard for 3 seconds?

Negating player input is such a pointless mechanic, it offers nothing interesting, it is just annoying, especially to any mechanically difficult champs. Silence is tied overwhelmingly to no-skill point and click abilities, and there is no counter to it.

Malza isn't a point and click silence, is a skillshot.

Soraka one is an aoe skillshot, instant but still not point and click.

Fiddle is the only one that you posted that actually has a point and click silence.

Thats called a surpress.

Except any cleansing effect. Also when your silenced, you can still move and basic attack. Therefore its serving its intended use of being great vs mages or ability reliant champions, while not being as effective to auto attack reliant champions.

Play an immobile champ with only skillshot CC against Yasuo, Riven, or Irelia, then reconsider your opinion.
