i got Nioh for Christmas and all of a sudden LoL doesn't seem that great anymore.

Huh. I wonder why that is. could it be that Nioh is relatively balanced despite being a single player game, and doesn't have people who are performing worse flaming me? even if i mute them, I then have to individually click each of their pings so they don't ping troll me. I know, eventually, I'll find every item, beat every boss in Nioh, and I will be back to playing LoL. Still, though. It's strange to me how long it takes the balance team to do their thing.

I think that I honestly ought to work on that team because I don't think any of them have the passion for balance that I do. they really don't seem to care as much as I do.

"could it be that Nioh is relatively balanced despite being a single player game"

You do understand that single player games are incredibly easy to make feel balanced because there's a single element you have to consider other than the challenges, right? If you know when your only player gets access to certain powers and what potential options they have you always know the best and worst case scenarios and what playstyles are possible and its easy to set up reasonable challenges around that.

140 champions in the hands of 5 individuals that can pick them in any combination when many of them have strong counters is just never going to feel balanced even if the numbers are fair.

Its probably because you got a good taste of a game that isn't league, That isn't chock full of toxic ragers, Trolls and tryhards. A game where you can actually enjoy being bad, Because you aren't getting punished by a thousand slurs of your ineptitude.

And probably because you can pause and quit any time you're not having fun.

Then maybe you should just stop playing league that way you dont have to complain about balance. Being over dramatic on the forums does absolutely no help. Maybe go to college and get into the video game stuff and try to ger a job at riot instead of pretending you have all the fixes behind a computer screen
