Why does every new champion have a ton of moblilty

Remember when a champion would have either a speed up spell or a blink/dash ? Now , it's almost a crime if the champion does not have both , and probably have cc in their kit as well. Camille has a speed up , a stun , a dash , a slow and a fucking bermuda triangle. Kled has his ulti , his joust and his trap bear on a rope. Ekko has a speed up , a slow , a stun , 2 dashes and his ulti. Hell , even the new Galio seems to have decent mobility. I am not judging if these champions are overpowered or not , but I am saying that mobility is now something generic. And hey , if all else fails , just build a protobelt :)

Illaoi ? Jhin ? Taliyah ? AurelionSol ? Ivern ?

Almost every season 6 champion (barring Camille who was a nightmare) either had extremely low mobility or extremely conditional mobility. (Taliyah's is on her ult. Jhin has to crit. Aurelion Sol is out of combat, Illaoi's is a tiny leap).

Meanwhile in earlier seasons...

Vayne MS boost as a passive and a tumble...on top of CC/knockback. Lucian THE DASHLORD Kalista plz no Leblanc [SCREECH] Riven Free dashes forever LeeSin I hate you.

If anything, Riot has been greatly lowering the amount of free dashing/mobility in kits. And no. Riven tapping Q three times to ignore slows is not the same caliber of movement as Ivern tagging a unit and being able to move to them every 14-6 seconds if he hits it.

It's more fun to play that way and gives more of a chance for an outplay.

I sometimes feel like rigth now there are like 10 Rivens in the game, everyone with two dashes, a jump an AOE crowd control.

PASSIVE: Teemo gains bonus movement speed if he hasn't taken damage from enemy champions or turrets for 5 seconds. ACTIVE: Teemo doubles his bonus movement speed for 3 seconds and prevents it from being disabled by damage.

From champion spotlight:

Teemo extreme mobility can also be used to save teammates.

Ummmm.... How does Jhin have tons of mobility? Or Ivern? Or Illaoi? Obviously I avoided the 3 that did but with 3 that did and 3 that do not in one year I can't seem to find the imbalance.
