Remember when Dunkey made the video saying he was quitting league... He got some of what he wanted. He hated the report system and now we have a new way of reporting. He hated how games went on forever and now they are quick. Game doesn't reward you for playing. Crafting chest and champion mastery. Dunkey is getting some of what he wanted in the game and it might not be exactly what he had in mind Riot is listening to him and many other people who complained about the same things. Dunkey said that Riot doesn't care for its content creators and his only request was to finish his video which he never did... Riot did respond though and delivered to what Dunkey wanted in league, not all of it, but some of it.

I want to now say something... Riot does listen to us contrary to popular belief. Think about it. After Bard, Kalista, and Kindred were released people complained (myself included) that too many champions were saving lives and there wasn't enough champions that execute and kill targets. Riot released Illaoi who does just that. Kill targets and people are now mad saying Illaoi is overpowered and does too much damage and is unfair but is it not what the community asked for? IF the community hated URF and nobody wanted it Riot would not bring it back because it drives away players instead of bringing them in and keeping the community happy. The reason All For One, URF, Legend of The Poro King, (hopefully Ascension) keep coming back is because people ask for it. People want things from Riot whether it be buffs, nerfs, VUs, gamemodes, skins, champions, really anything we ask for Riot has given us. People complained forever about games feeling the same and look what happened with the marksman update. Some champions were OP like Graves so they nerfed him and took away his cigar high damage and he's more balanced now. Riot managed to make every game feel different and you will still see some of the same champs more than others but there is way more variety on teams now and ways to play certain champions (Rageblade Jax).

So in short Veigar Riot does Listen to us it might not be directly what we ask for but we do get what we want and we can't deny it. We ask a lot from Riot and will continue to do it. It's the cycle of League Nasus. We ask a lot from Riot and complain and yell at them when it isn't exactly what we wanted. Riot tries to appeal to everyone to keep as many people as happy as possible and with so many people playing everywhere it isn't the easiest task. But Riot is doing a lot for us and nobody takes the time to really appreciate it. The only time we really say thank you to Riot is when we like a skin or gamemode and we thank them for bringing it back but that is about it. Riot does so much for us and all we ask for so next time you want something in League and are about to make a board post/reddit post ask yourself, "If Riot does what I ask will it be exactly like this or will their be something else similar but still is what I want?"

So thank you Riot for doing so much for us and continuing to do so much for us even though we give you guys a hard time.

Dunkey is delusional if he thinks he has sway at Riot. They work on these for many months to well over a year. They do listen to the community, though. It's their game and they have their own vision for it, but they don't completely ignore us.

This might not exactly belong in the gameplay section of the boards but it was the best fitting in my opinion since I mention some of the game changes Riot made for us.
