It would be amazing if he could push the boundaries for lore the way he does champions. I like that CertainlyT puts together creative champions, even if they are not always the most balanced. It also seems that the game's lore is currently on life support and I think somebody as imaginative as CertainlyT could easily bring a spark of life back to it.

I got criticisms against the guy (goes with the territory), but his ideas and designs aren't necessarily terrible.

I'd like to see what he would do for lore, what envelopes he would push and how many elbows he would jab. Could be interesting. I'd read his stuff.

He knows more than all of us. He says so himself.

He never answers criticism, but takes it well trust him.

His ideas are well thought out and good for the game. He said so himself.

As for any debates he responds to............ they haven't happened yet. He only posts to talk about how good his own ideas are and how nobody else knows as much -.-

He's good at champion design but the rest of the team needs to hold him on a short leash. For example, Yasuo isn't a bad design, but he has far too much of everything everywhere, all the time. At some point someone needs to put a foot down and say "No, that's enough tools in a single champion's kit".

I understand it's hard to stop the feature creep but I think it would be a lot more healthy for the game if at some point someone could say "maybe this time we wont give someone everything, ever."

they said so a while back

yasuo used to have a third passive which was making flow generation quicker if he was dashing.

they removed it basically said "no"

My problem isn't so much with CertainlyT. He comes up with some great abilities and concepts for champions. My problem is with Riot not telling him that his champions are more overloaded than a Pinto carrying an elephant. They need to let him design and someone else balance.

WE should put him on the art team, that would be impressive.

People give him a lot of hate, but he creates some of the most fun champions to play. Yes they can be frustrating to play against, but every champion can be frustrating.

I'm going to unironically say that Certainlyt is an excellent champ designer, but he needs to be working closer with balance team when he designs his kits. They have a bad habit of being painful to play against and nearly impossible to balance. Not to mention paragraph long descriptions on everything get a little tiring.

When you guys say "unique, and fun" in relation to CertainlyT champs, what you're actually saying is that this champion has 2-3x the tools and outplay features of older champs and that incredible advantage makes them fun.

Yes, playing overpowered champs is fun, but his designs are awful for the health of the game

Or actually work even better since we would have awesomely strong champions/mechanics spread everywhere.

Whats the point of polling if you're trying to skew the votes in a way you want them?

in any case, his champion designs are a nightmare to balance and toxic to play against. That's the issue most people have with them. Am I denying that the champions he creates are fun? No, they're a lot of fun to play. But game design for a champion to be fun at others expense is pretty toxic. It would just be nice if the balance team didn't include all the random bullshit that is completely unnecessary into the kits of champions he designs
