Is RIOT breaking the Meta?

Am i the only one that has noticed this? I feel like with the release of bard I just feel like RIOT doesn't like the idea of the meta. What has riots main idea of league? Fun, they always want us to have fun.

Now I know what you're going to say "RIOT doesn't care about us all they want is our money and become the most dominant moba and online game on the earth." You're right kind of, sure RIOT wants to be the best online game in the world, you should always shoot for that as a business. But, in all truth every move that RIOT makes with their game is for the better of the community.

Back to the idea of fun. The idea of nerfs is to try to attempt to make champs equal. Even if champs like Katarina and Nidalee are always complained about for being too op, it is inevitable, there are flaws in every system and that is what we need to live with. The main reason they balance is to try and make all the champs equal in one way or another. If champs are equal in power it makes it fun for all of us. We don't want an opponent to have an advantage, do we?

Now onto the break of the meta. I don't think RIOT likes the meta, it brings out the toxicity in all players, and RIOT hates us flaming each other. Whenever someone decides to go ap Nami , Sona or ad Soraka I see people flame each other when we're in normals. Then the champs get on killing sprees and everyone stops, because these builds actually work. That is what RIOT wants they love the idea of thinking outside the box, if you can beat someone differently then anyone expected people start using it. That is where bard comes in, I feel like in this season RIOT will release champs outside the box, a tank that will go** bot lane**, a ranged jungler, and many other ideas that will force us to think outside the box.

Because that is what RIOT wants and I find the most fun. ;)

Bard was meant to be a support and nothing else, with the focus of him being purely that role. But that sure as hell wont stop me from trying him jungle :D

Well i just mean with his roam you pretty much need to have leave your adc the entire time ish and just roam from lane to lane. He is a sup but he is a sup that is for all lanes not just for one

Ah but that is where you are wrong. He is not just a support he is an amazing jungle carry. I am going to post a thread about this but here is why: Passive: gets you ahead of the game in comparison to other junglers Q: your lock that lets your team beat the enemy up when you gank W: sustain E: ONE WAY TICKET TO SUPER GANK R: dont even need to explain I think this is totally possible

But you're proving my point of how RIOT wants us to be outside the box

If Riot wants their players to have fun they should bring back URF, Doom bots, Nemesis draft etc. for good. No one gives a shit about the meta at least I don't.
