The Gameplay balance does not represent player concerns

The patch 10.1 balance changes don't seem to affect any champion's stance in the Meta only maybe sylas which has been struggling since riot gutted him. Which I appreciate the changes too but seriously Top lane is completely ignored (Except JayceJayce for whatever reason) which is the lane in which something needs to happen to... Kass loses movement speed but nowhere close to a balance change more like a minor tweak. Bot lane pandered too greatly as always but support items nerfed ???? They might give too much stats but it is nerf to non mage supports mostly enchanters, who struggle to survive against assassins and burst meta. I was planning to quit until patch 10.1 but it seems I might even quit entirely... is this all they noticed needing changes ? Dragon focused games ? Bot lane focused junglers ? Burst burst burst burst ? Winrate of Morde being absurd and the champion being out right called brain dead and banned to non existence?

I understand what your saying but after 8 years being involved with this community. I've learned this community is truly awful at understanding what the game needs. It's all just memes and hate. That's all it is. The community propagates it, streamers propagate it, even pros propagate the wrong issues because their elo doesn't reflect most of the playerbase at all.

Riot does not care about what you say, about what I say or any player. They just care about selling skins. Maybe they care about what chinese players say.

Enchanted have the highest winrate of the supports. A good enchanter has more than enough tools to make an assassian useless

LMFAO, a buff to AD assassins with a buff to this item 3134 . Let's buff a class that's been overpowered for going on 8 seasons!

You must learn one thing, Riot is not balancing, if they did, there would be more than 10% champions viable past diamond.

Aatrox and Talon need some adjustments to get the game back to where it was when it was succesful. Their kits are too loaded. Talon can not have wave clear and both early and late game damage if he has infinite mobility and evasion. Aatrox has just way too much utility for a champ that has a default advantage during lanning, can carry late, and if all else fails can still give you a great engage. Cassi is risky whether you are a good player or not. Poorly designed champs that can carry like Aatrox and Akali, because of all their tools, become safe when played well.

Enchanters aren't gutted by supp item nerfs but they are with Senna's existence.

ofc not. the balance team is 3 drunk students that all 3 main assassin/bruisers and whenever they cant faceroll with a champ while they are drunk, said champ gets a buff. thats literally the best way to explain the situation.

Mordekaiser Still up there with a massive winrate Aatrox still down there with a winrate lower than his pre rework self Nocturne still allowed to be Toplane due to the ridiculous buffs they had given him

Shaco dominating everything in jungle since his buffs but apparently he is not a nerf candidate Ekko there as well, dominating as well

Mordekaiser even at damned midlane... come on Rito, this guy has 30% banrate!! AurelionSol also there due to his massive burst damage which should be lowered for increased resistance

Heimerdinger should get nerfed at botlane because I am pretty sure ADC's have had enough of this rat already

Shaco again at support, has been there since the buffs alongside jungle

There are all the champions that should get nerfed (and in case of Aatrox, reworked) to have a actually good patch. And for the Jayce, such buff will only push him midlane even more which I am not sure that midlaners will like

Its a buff to support items, with athenes you'll get the same ap and manaregen early is infinitely more valuable than the tiny amount of HP it was giving you. It'll allow enchanters to actually function as real champs again.
