Its more than Pre 20. Its that stealth champs can never even be CLOSE to balanced at all ELOs.

Afaik there were like half a dozen iterations of eve changes done on the internal testing server that riot scrapped and then started again. We didn't see any changes, but that doesn't mean that riot wasn't working on her at all.
also you clearly don't remember what it was like when eve had stun. alistar pales in comparison to that bullshit.
edit: What you're asking is pretty unreasonable. You're basically asking them to just keep trying to release unfinished product so that you can feel like they're working on the project.

You think internal testing even comes close to mass consumer testing? I'm sure there are plenty of stuff they've done in internal testing that they felt were "strong" and balanced, and then released it into public play, and it ended being weak as shit. Just look at Syndra.
Roaming taric was a terror back then too, and TF had unlimited range on that ulti. They all got nerfed, then buffed. Taric got changes uptil his remake as well. Seriously not asking for too much out of Riot, in reference to what they did to Eve.

Tired me is getting convinced into trying 9/21/0 on Riven. Must be time for bed, this is giving me dejavu when I almost talked myself into Trinity Vayne.

It makes me curious to see how I would be in internal testing, because I don't think I'd personally check off on Syndra being overly good (still early though).
Moonbear, make that happen, wouldja? ;P

for the record, because a lot of people seem to get confused roaming was never "nerfed" people just started buying more wards taric was nerfed because of his lane strength. his ability to roam has not been changed in the slightest - in fact it's only within the past year or so that people have actively bought wards to counter roaming
|
Non-pertinent to discussion. The fact is that Riot nerfed/buffed champions multiple times throughout history of LoL. Eve pretty much untouched despite obvious problems regarding the champions viability. Just look at now. Caitlyn is perfectly fucking fine as an AD carry, no changes necessary. Decide to buff her Q.
Eve, complete and utter shit champion for a year. Waits a year to completely remake champion. Can't you not see how this seriously irks me? I guess my butthurt was that I bought Eve with IP, like 2 weeks before they nerfed her.

eve is just toxic to gameplay she's not fun to play, and even less fun to play against. just like shaco, she's extremely binary. either you get fed on kills that your opponent doesn't expect, or you don't. there's no real teamfighting to speak of, no cool maneuvers you can do, no way to outplay someone as eve. you just surprise kill them or you don't
and that's just not fun
that kind of binary play can be done right (see: lee sin, although he has his own set of problems but i think they're under control atm), and it can be done very wrong (see also: shaco). in eve's case it's just not interesting and not fun
she was only like 3150 IP anyway man i barely have time to play this game and i can grind 3150 IP very easily
i even have a skin for eve and i hate her :x

If you are stronger you need to contest everything and make sure your lanes will follow.

Seriously not asking for too much out of Riot, in reference to what they did to Eve. if they can't even make something satisfactory in internal testing, what makes you think they would have the confidence to release their iterations to the public?
taric's case wasn't really a remake, it was more fixing his ult to fit the original vision of the champ. His gameplay was not very much affected by the ult change, so because they weren't really changing how the champ works fundamentally, its actually not a huge deal to make stat changes. Another example of exactly what happened to eve happened to twitch, as well (both of which shared the 'near perma-stealth' mechanic). Twitch was not touched for more than a year before his remake, and his viability was almost as much in question as eve's was, so I'm kinda confused why you're specifically choosing eve here.
I think something that further compounds this issue is a fundamental disconnect that you and I have in terms of product development. (feel free to correct me, as i'm essentially speaking for you from this point) I feel like you would prefer to see a workable product released, and have a number of community inputs to indicate the direction further changes should take. I, on the other hand, believe that it's the balance testers and the designers responsibility to create as finished of a product as possible, and use the community input to fix bugs and unforeseen problems that arise post-release. I don't think one way is strictly superior to another, and most of the time, I feel like most balance concerns are resolved with a combination of the two.
Now, it's not totally unreasonable to ask for tweaks on numbers while we wait for the full remake, but at the same time you have to consider that A) my guess is that riot did not expect this remake to take as long as it did, and B) riot made it pretty clear fairly early on that the entire design of eve was going to change in many respects, which really makes it seem less of a good idea to really adjust eve from a nerfed-to-hell state. It doesn't help that during eve's entire existence, she has always been either A) total shit, and/or B) incredibly frustrating to play against, on multiple levels. She has never been even close to a near-balanced state.

eve is just really ugly imoimoimo. she's all sexual while still being really ugly
super offtopic, but if anyone here is a calculus god PLEASE help me out. have an assignment due tomorrow and i'm unranked in calculus. link if anyone's interested will reciprocate with anything short of a bj

Just refunded Ori and Riven to get another 4 pages of runes. 15 pages total now, I think I'll have enough to make pretty much every rune page I could've ever wanted now.
