"The community has always strongly leaned towards the idea of fixing exsiting problems, rather than building on top of them."

I don't know what it's from (Found it randomly on reddit), but... Yeah. Animation cancelling started as a bug, that instead of being fixed, got worked into gameplay, rather then being fixed. So, why do that? Why Build characters to abuse a known bug, rather then fix the bug? (Riven)

Not trying to start a fight, but i will point out that you removed a lot of champion attack reset and animation cancelling, but leave the bugs themselves still in game, stop building around it and jsut fix it.

You'd basically have to completely rework Riven at that point, since I'm pretty sure she'd be complete garbage without animation canceling.

Riven's not even the only champion with animation cancels, just the most notable user of it. As far as I'm aware, no champion that has them has it indicated directly, let alone the fact that you can cancel some animations using Tiamat's active (which as far as I'm aware is fairly important to know as as Renekton).
