But I can't support your god-awful decision-making over the last few seasons, especially concerning reworks/new champions (which are really better versions of previous designs that already exist).

Why play Vi when you can play Camille ? Thresh or Blitzcrank when there;s Pyke Leblanc when you have Neeko Riven when you have Aatrox Nami Sona Soraka (maybe) when you have Yuumi

and broken pieces of garbage like Kayn who can nuke most champions with one spell rotation and regains almost all of his health with his ultimate. Vladimir can build AP or HP and still delete you with little counterplay. Mordekaiser still feels borderline broken but the worst part about him is the idiotic kit design. His ult is the worst part. I don't know why his designer was bragging about how busted it is. There's nothing to be proud of. Design/balance teams have been ruining everything they've touched for years now. For some reason it takes like 4 years for you to even look at towers only to end up nerfing them and worsening bot lane.

Back to champion design, at least they were both simple and original back then. Instead of letting the champs play themselves, we were forced to improve mechanically and it was a lot easier to provide counterplay options and keep the game fun. Winning felt good back then. Winning and losing feel worse today. You basically said f*** you to your founding community.

Because you have a better chance of winning if you pick Vi over Camille.

Thresh or Blitzcrank when there;s Pyke

Because you also have a better chance of winning by picking the former over the latter.

Leblanc when you have Neeko

These champions don't play anything alike at all?

Riven when you have Aatrox

Same thing as prior, Riven, better chance of winning.

Nami Sona Soraka (maybe) when you have Yuumi

Wanna guess who has better win rates, because it's not Yuumi.

I'm sensing a looooooot of bias rather then outright fact.

Am I really the only one about the post after post about people bitching about champions all being boring and samey?

So I don’t agree with some of your stuff but I do agree that kayn is bullshit, morde needs some work, and yummi is also bullshit. Vi is actually really good and one of the best junglers in the game. Don’t even get me started on Leblanc because she is the champion I hate the most.
