Can someone explain to me why we need assassins in this game?
Other than to satisfy the pre-pubescent CoD fucks who think the game revolves on solo killing your lane opponent?
It's not to kill adcs because we have burst mages for that.
It's not to kill mages because fighters do that as well as other mages.
Split pushing is a strategy that can be used by a variety of champions now (Zz'rot portal Garen OP)
They encourage selfish play in a game that revolves around team play (or at least it's supposed to) and I frankly don't a reason for the class to exist. I honestly think if we removed every champ in the game with a primary tag of "assassin" league would be a lot easier to balance.
