Choking out creativity... The Eve rework

I don't believe that item builds defines a champions identity. I believe they add depth to a champions kit but their kit will remain their defining identity. They could've kept her hybrid scaling and still have the assassin they wanted. That's the beauty of hybrid scaling. It's w/e though. the ONLY thing I wanted from this rework was Riot to keep her hybrid scaling. I didn't care how she looked, or what her kit would be as long as she had stealth (at some point) and hybrid scaling. Whats done is done, Riot is deleting eve and replacing her with a completely different champion. It makes me feel like trash. My opinions aren't appreciated and my play style was thrown out with the garbage. Hell all the champs i liked to play were deleted.. old Poppy, old Taric, and now Eve. They hate anything that can bend the meta and they delete it. Why have items at all. Wouldn't the game be easier to balance if they forced people to build specific items every game instead of giving people the illusion of item diversity. We're killing the best part about this game.... Curiosity, experimentation, creativity. Instead of building on those concepts with The new Eve, we've stripped her down to a Diana/Taliyah clone. She doesn't offer anything new or different and eventually her builds will all be the same. Riot, when you guys created this game and shared it with the world you gave everyone a piece of that creation. It's no longer just yours, it's everyone's. Don't let everything else blind you to whats important. Making this game a masterpiece through player/dev unity is whats important and i believe you guys have lost sight of that. gg eve

Edit: The Eve rework looks great btw. It's definitely worthy of it's "rework" status since this isn't 100% a new champion design. It brings multiple mechanics to the table that remind of of the Old eve and I appreciate the effort to try and improve upon those characteristics.

wait... help me figure this out.. "I don't believe that item builds defines a champions identity" "Her identity relies on her being able to scale off two kinds of items" ? or am i misunderstanding
