... I was goinna make a post about how terrible the balance in League is, and how greedy Riot is for not doing anything about it (and even perpetuating imbalance to milk money off champs and skins)... but then I realized that no one cares, and no one in these forums was gaming before greedy, shitty companies like Riot became the standard, instead of the industry jokes, and don't know how far gaming has fallen -- and how morons continue to enable the companies that brought it to its knees.

Sure would be nice if Riot gave a damn outside of income potential, and it would really be nice if people didn't enable shitty companies. Maybe then there'd be a game I enjoyed that I actually had fun playing, instead of feeling like I'm beating my head against a wall playing against all the "balanced" champions in the game.

Can you give some examples to back up your point?

Most of those Companies are gone and dead because they didnt care about their revenue stream. Take Everquest for example. Probably 1 of the best games ever made. Sony couldn't justify keeping it - sold to DayBreak - Down Hill it went.

Most champions are not unbalanced - you just have to think about how you are going to play against that champions Strengths. Maybe it's about your summoner spells. Or even how you are buying your skills. Sometimes on Master Yi I skill up Q / W / E / W / W / R - This allows me to heal through a bursty champion like Jax. - Just think about how you are playing against the strengths of the enemy champ :)

Have fun bud.

And that's how it goes: Greedy suits get a taste of money, and then abandon any semblance of quality and go for more money (even though they're already making a massive profit). But then, that's just how society wants you to behave.

When a champion has no real weakness, or when their strengths overshadow their weaknesses, then there's not much you can do but CC them and hope they die before it ends, or just straight up lose. Also doesn't help when you enjoy the champs that require a lot of micromanagement and have a lot of counterplay -- basically just losing on purpose by playing them. Oh sure, I can go play Annie, any ADC, Jax, or some other braindead champion and win with little to no effort, but that's just not fun, and feels like cheating. But then I go play Kat, or Taliyah, or Vlad, or Ori... and I have my ass handed to me by players who are just garbage and way below me, but still win because they abuse their bullshit champions.

There is no balance in this game. There's just a lot of broken champions that are intentionally kept broken because they make money, and the weak champions that whales don't like and so will never be strong or given attention.
