Riot needs to incorperate new CC into the game and balance other CCs

Hi ive recently taken a break from league and started to play different games. Im not really liking the way in which riot is attempting to balance there game. There is constant issues with balancing champions and abilities. With the recent addition of many knockup based heroes and lack of other cc is a problem. Riot needs to incorperate more silences,better designed taunts,and a new addition would be a point and click stun or some sort with a higher mana cost. There is currently onlya couple point and click stuns. Point and click stuns would be taric or annie etc point and click stuns are not udyr nami renekton etc. For example nami has a skillshot stun not a point and click were its a instant. Riot should start buffing older champions to let them catch up to the newer designed ones. In my opinion league is the biggest sheep game ever created. People only play what the pros play and when they dont they are constantly bashed for playing a underplayed hero. A idea that i have is riot should remove the flash summoner spell and replace with a more offencive spell. With the removal of flash riot could make a item similar to blink dagger in dota to help non mobile champions. This is just my thoughts. Comment if you want to discuss

Actually, that would be a nerf, it means that in the beginning of the game non-mobile champs will not have flash, while mobility based champs will have their gap closer, thus forcing non-mobile champs to purchase this item just to even out the playing field a little. And then you run into the problem that these non-mobile champs have had to put gold into a non-combat item just for one active and used up a much needed item slot, putting them behind in build, ensuring they are not nearly as powerful as they should be at full build and all around just giving them the shaft.

I thought Flash itself serves as a chase, escape, and added mobility to anyone. Lol. When I read the title, I thought you meant adding new types of crowd control. Like "flattened" (run over by Sion, just an example). idk

IMO, Tenacity needs to work on knock-up and knock-back.

The height of a knock-up and the distance of a knock-back should be reduced, which shortens the duration. Pretty simple, but Riot can't seem to pull together the tech to make it happen.

Both of these forms of CC are appearing more and more, yet there's nothing you can do to mitigate it. That's pretty much the definition of toxic, when something has zero counter play.

Not sure what to do about pulls. Could reduce the distance as well. That would at least allow some work on Blitz, so he's not such a one-trick pony. Not sure about Nautilus and Thresh though.

Well Flash is a tough one to remove, non-mobile champs absolutely rely on it, mobile champs use it as a back-up. Removing it will only hurt non-mobile champs and only force mobile champs to play a bit smarter, not a nerf to them.

Also there tons of point click stuns, i think the word you are looking for is 'Targeted' stun specifically ranged ones, such as Taric and TF. Now why there are so few 'targeted stuns' is because of lack of counter-play to them. Xerath's can be dodged, Nami's is a skillshot, Leona requires her E to get close to use, Udyr needs to run at you, Sona's is a skillshot, etc. They all have counter-play such as dodging or avoiding, Taric and TF's have no counterplay other then Cleanses (which works on all CC), Spellshields (like Noc, Sivir, and Banshees; then there is Morg which blocks magic damage and CC as long as it remains unbroken; also works on all CC), and not being near them before they use them (yet again is the same for all CC)... Not really reliable counter-play, nothing your skill can deal with, its all situational.
