What do Yasuo and Kalista have in common (2 champs getting a rework)?

They were both made by CertainlyT. What does that tell you? Fun fact, Thresh (the most broken support in the game currently) was also made by him.

CertainlyT makes some of the coolest champions in the game, but these champions are also oftentimes balance nightmares. Yasuo and Kalista are both very powerful champions - but they're getting reworks for different reasons. Yasuo can't be balanced in high elo without being busted in low elo because people in low elo don't have a clue how to play against him. Meanwhile, Kalista can't be balanced in low elo without being busted in high elo because she's too overloaded and high elo players can use this overloadedness to high effectiveness.

lots of unique mechanics that require other champions to play differently around them and everyone whines about them on the forums?

So a loaded kit basically? This just in. Champions with loaded kits tend to get complained about. More on this story at 10.

they have just about the same complexity of kit as other champions released around that time. the only thing people say is overloaded is the random stats and passives stuck in random places, like kallista's w passive and yasuo's double passive and ult stats.

yea, I already know, CT has made ALOT of cool champs that are just fundamentally over loaded and i impossible to balance.

Thresh was also relatively balanced for over multiple seasons until recent changes made him meta ######But hey that doesn't support your point so lets ignore it

Wtf are you talking about? He's been meta ever since he was released (his play rate has been as high as Lee Sin's ever since he was released). He is literally the Lee Sin of supports (super loaded kit and always meta).
