Strength in exchange for uniqueness
Am i the only one who really dislikes the uniqueness fo champions, that cost them their roles, Morde is now a less strong top laner, BUT LOOK HE CAN SUPPORT, thats not what players bought him for.
Ohw look the new fiora is a utility top laner, again not what the players bought her for, they wanted an assassin/physical nuker. Sion players liked the 1/2 punch magic combo, now they get a sort of generic tank witha flashy passive and ultimate.(Dont get me wrong sion is a really strong jungler, and a okay-ish to really good toplaner)
I like some changes i really do, like the bouncy shrooms for teemo or the new passive for darius, but changing champions from what they used to be to "match their identity" "and for more unique style of play" is plain wrong, people buy a champ for their skillset(like i did for yorick) or for their look(fiora,chogath and morde which i love except fiora post-rework)
(Also morde is supposed to be the pain paladin "Mordekaiser is a being of pure, living agony on a mysterious dread quest." <- a qoute directly from lore, he isnt meant to help or heal his allies, what the hell is that new W mordekaiser skill riot)
If you want a new look sure, but dont change skillset A to skillset B if it changes the entire concept of a champ, its just basically wasting the time and effort people put into finding their playstyle and just throwing it all overboard...
You have a giant playerbase and you kind of listen to it, but not for the full 100%, Alot of people were disgusted by the new fiora look, yet you pushed it, her new walk animation feels like she is skipping.
TL;DR Disagreeing with riot changing entire champions and making champions worse or completly give a rework because of "them not having a unique playstyle or a playstyle that fits their identity."
EDIT 1: Okay i agree with people saying he si an adc i was in the wrong, The w change is cool, but it takes away his sololane potential, so top/mid lane mains are getting fucked over in champion diversity.
