Hey Riot, Quick here. My concern with the assassin update is that if assassins are made too strong (not necessarily too bursty, just having too little weaknesses), then a good portion of the mages updated in the mage update are going to become obsolete, as they will get wrecked by buffed assassins. The only mid mages that would remain in the meta (other than counter-specific champs) are the ones who are already causing problems in mid by being too oppressive and lacking weaknesses, e.g. Syndra, Malzahar. As a mid main since season 1, I am fearing mid might turn into a "pick one of the top 5 OP champs" lane or lose. Please tell me I am wrong.
Thank you - looking forward to a great preseason
