And it only helps the already powerful champs. https://media.giphy.com/media/12njhr39vCz5Ac/giphy.gif

Trying to balance mobas in a nutshell.

More like the can is filled with gasoline.

This is garen Garen . He's a champion who be built for both damage and tank. For the most part he's not a bad champ. Sure he yells a lot and gets annoying but for the most part he's pretty good. Except for one thing. With the juggernaut update garen went from being an easy champ for people new to the game to being one of the dumbest things that has ever walked the rift. For example, in a recent game I fought against a garen who had gone almost full tank and yet he killed me with half of my hp left. I was puzzled and then realized that because of his update he did over 1000 true damage to me....as a tank not only that but I had been marked as the villain even though I was 3/8. How is that fair? How in the hell is that considered balanced? It's not. Garen has also received very little attention in the recent patches. Basically he hasnt been nerfed...at all. Every time I fight this champion this game is just not fun. It's stupid because i have to fight a tank who I know can kill me (regardless of my defenses) with a move that doesn't even take skill to land. It's not even a melee move. It has no cast time and it has range. Why don't you go work over some champs that people dont play as often like galio, yorick, poppy, urgot, and corki.

Except the more they go on the more they seem to lose control and set the whole forest on fire and then be like "nah dont worry we got dis"

imbalance is what drives and feeds the game. riot does the best job of any moba to make sure the meta doesn't become a stale ritual of picks and counter-picks. to keep the scene from being stale for eternity, you have to encourage the trendsetters by leaving little bits of OP hanging for them to chew on.

i think of it more as setting fires than putting them out.

of course there are a few persistent strong picks, but they serve as a fulcrum for the next wave of meta. 90% of the time i have been happy with riots design choices, with the exception of the beginning of this season when they made jungling feel like a second support role.

Rito looks so sad. I want to give them a hug. :(

You messed up when you implied they even try.

more like you trying to adapt to a shifting meta.

Not quite, you're missing the caption where they nonchalantly insist that everything is fine and there is no fire.
