I question Riot's way of balancing this game

For years people have made many threads upon the failure of Riot Games when it comes to Balance.

I read a Rioter's comment on how they are trying to balance pro play and average play at the same field. At that point, I was convinced that Riot isn't buffing or balancing these champions for us regulars, they are doing it for the sole purpose of LCS and pro players.

Pretty much a whole bunch of you already knew that long ago but seeing a Rioter saying it like that really proves a lot.

I am utterly disappointed how this company destroy the fun in this game for the sake of gaining profits.

They basically work like this: " We've seen enough Ryze in the LCS, lets nerf him and buff Syndra and then nerf her and bring back Ryze next year "

that is not possible, riot are only interested in selling skins that make money for them...for low ranks they dont give a fuuk...only one thing is matter and that thing is to make more skins=more money.... Aboutg ame, nobody from employeers dont give a fuckkk about this game and players and game balace, if someone from them play this game, they play like team ( 5 ppl against other 5 ppl premade) only like that u can archieve something...if u play solo u will never climb up, if you play duo u will climb up but it takes time cuz in 10 games u get 2 trollers, 2 feeders and 1 afk....if u have team and teamspeak and all 5 people who speak english, and all 5 people actually know to play their roles than u can do something good in this game...otherwise fuukk it... Remember, riot is interested only in money!! Regards..RIOT HATER

He gave you an example of someone climbing up solo that you say can't be done. I'm another. I play exclusively solo in solo/duo queue (which you can check with sites like op.gg). season 4 I started silver 5 and climbed to gold 2, and season 5/6 I got to diamond 5, and this season I'm im promos to it now, purely solo queue which is verifiable with third party websites or looking into my match history. It is completely possible to climb solo.

I can't speak to your language problem because I play in NA, but I doubt that language barrier alone is enough to hold anyone back significantly with the smart ping system in place.

I made a similar response to this in a similar topic questioning rito's balance ideas months ago, may as well try to repeat it:

The problem with rito's "balance" ideas is that they sorta don't cater to the meta and merely what they think the meta will be. Because of this, certain OP's are either left untouched for a while or are heavily nerfed before natural counters can appear (Camille being a perfect example, as she basically did both with her now being somewhat bad as literally every tank in the game can 1v1 her). If Rito wants to make this game healthy, they have to do 2 things: ignore the "LCS-metas" (as just because NA/EU decide to play the same 10 characters over and over again doesn't necessarily make them OP/broken), and potentially limit patches to once every 6-8 weeks instead of this 2-week BS that benefits noone. Then more natural counters can appear, and stuff like lucian won't suddenly become useless at the drop of a hat.
