But I highly enjoy the fact that some champions or items are retuned to be "broken", because of this game was honestly 100% balanced would people really have fun? I know for a fact I would leave League if this game wasn't updated as often as it is, even if we had another Cinderhulk meta over time the same stagnant play gets boring.

I enjoy the fact that the game changes almost every two weeks and a new mechanic is added to League in order to challenge this and find a way to play around it, while there has been some things may be over tuned to the point where it causes frustration, everything at some point will get nerfed or even hotfixed if necessary.

Thank you for creating such an amazing game Riot and be sure to keep updating this game.

The fact that Riot thinks their changes are improving the game is a sign that something is horribly wrong. They don't deserve thanks for what they've done to Karma, Cassiopeia, and Quinn. They deserve revilement for poorly reworking unpopular things and allowing popular but unhealthy shit to just fester and get worse. Their lies and greed need to be stopped. They deserve bankruptcy for the fucking crimes against game design they're committing. They're not just bad, they're SCUMBAGS.

With nearly 140+ champions you expect all to be completely balanced?

Even if they were you think this game wouldn't be boring, it's the same reason people leave games that don't update after awhile.

If the characters were balanced, the game would be INFINITELY MORE FUN. There'd be a TON of diversity in every game, you'd never know what to expect. The meta wouldn't be forced, people could experiment and learn new things constantly, and LOSING MIGHT ACTUALLY BE FUN. Instead, you have a sizeable array of overplayed poorly designed fuckwits, a handful of over-designed smurfbaits, and a VAST OCEAN of completely fucking useless shit that gets you called Bronze for even picking them. Then you die over and over to instant death bullshit while the enemy flexes its single brain cell, just enough to mash QWER.

Basically the game in its current state revolves around two game states: One: Not playing the game and watching that Gromp you were trying to farm get autoattacked by an assassin through grayscale. Two: Not HAVING to play the game, because you picked a braindead pile of bad ideas that Riot thinks is a masterpiece.

All the while, you're being harangued mercilessly by both teams and suicide looks like more and more of a desirable option as you watch your Restricted Messages for the game slowly tick up, and you watch that Low Priority Queue timer slowly tick down.

Except in an ideal world that won't happen because no matter how hard you try certain champions will get the shorter end of the stick in a patch.

I agree with you 100%.

It's a common misconception that no meta would evolve if the game were balanced properly. All games have metas, regardless of how well they are balanced. Eventually, that gets stale. The changes are WHY LoL has stayed popular.

That doesn't mean they couldn't do better with balance. I would love to see them dump more resources into analysis and hotfixes on especially problematic champs (Caitlyn and Draven are two that bother me a lot right now). I think most of us could agree on that.

Overall, though, they have one of the most balanced multiplayer games out there, and it's even more impressive when you consider how fast the patches roll out. A lot of people will just always want it to be better and faster. It could always be better and faster. But Riot is one of the best and one of the fastest out there right now. That's just my opinion, but they sure are popular to be the failures that many people claim.
