How gullible is the League community?

It's a little difficult to pull this off because there aren't several dozen prospectors annually for the various professional teams or vague changes to champions. All of the information is more accessible than public domain; Riot and the community has seen to that.

That being said, the community more often than not fools themselves by giving in sooner than one sanely would by proclaiming that about half the roster is broken and uncounterable, attempting the same tactics on different champions and expecting similar results (Yasuo can kill squishies in seconds, so he should kill tanks in seconds, too), or overspecializing and paying the price for it when it doesn't work. (all AD melee assassin)

Different people have different problems with different champs...

They grieve these problems on the boards.

That does not make us a hive mind

Neither are the NFL fans... except for Bears and Packers fans. They hate each other for some reason, and I tried asking a Bears fan (read: my stepdad) why, and he breathed fire at me.

That being said, I've seen endless threads, mostly by the same people, coming on and grieving about most of the roster being broken and unplayable, or broken and uncounterable without elaborating on why. Yes, you can make an argument for certain champions that need a good fixing (e.g. Annie's bear being thrown so it's not an insta-crowd stun nuke and people have time to get the hell out of the way), but then there are other champions that have glaring weaknesses that nobody exploits. Darius, for example, is a master of melee, but he has terrible mobility and can get kited easily by mobile and ranged champions and mages... provided he doesn't catch them or single out the weak gazelle among them. Braum is a fantastic support tank that works best paired with someone, namely ADCs, but he suffers when he fights alone.

not saying NFL fans are either... you're picking the minority that complain about everything and applying it to the majority
