If you were to change or delete something Riot has created what would it be?

It could be a champion, an item, etc. Imagine you're one of the Riot developers, what would you fix, delete, or change?

Yasuo , even though i've learned how to play against him, ill still always hate him for his awful design and overloaded kit

i would bring back wards and the vision game. green wards would came back and so would the trinket system from season 4. removing vision closed the skill gap between smart players and bad players. i believe a big part of the reason why this game has been such a clusterfuck for the past 2.5 seasons is directly correlated to the lack of vision. you cant see anything on the map. you get a trinket that lasts all of 60sec instead of 3 min. the map is ALWAYS completely dark. which makes ganking for junglers 10x's easier. they dont have to worry about bushes being warded. they just freely move about the map unnoticed 90% of the time.

Assassins. It's not fun when they're strong and it's not fun when they're too weak. They shouldn't be in a MOBA.

Delete Runes and Masteries 100%

They unfairly punish new players who don't have access to them (start the game against someone with 1000+ gold worth of stats at level 1)

They are a balancing nightmare as admitted by QT and Scarra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGXDZi_IBck conversation starts around 34:45

Their power is largely unseen but still highly powerful (base stats)

Riot can better adjust base stats on a champion-to-champion level rather than having to balance around people possibly having certain rune or mastery pages

Games should ideally start up in a completely even state. If you take the wrong runes and masteries then you more than likely just lost the lane in an even matchup against someone with an optimized pre-game setup

If your argument for keeping these things is that they add viability or depth to champion off-builds (such as ap varus) then I agree but the fundamental flaw here is lack of itemization to further support these builds
