IMO riot needs to stop making champions and start balancing out the older unused ones. Like people have said theres only so many things you can do.

But cash cow is cash cow.

It's actually impossible to lose with Janna. You don't even need to use your Q's to hit enemies. Pretty much keep the wave permapressed.

There are separate teams for new champs and reworks, they work in parallel. On top of that the balance team is probably also its own separate thing if we are just talking number buffs. I guess my point is that new champs don't preclude old champs from getting fixes. Also they have slowed down the new champ releases significantly, I think it's in a much better spot than it was a new champ every two weeks.

I still think the best thing for them to do would just be to simply to put champ releases on like a 3-4 month cycle and just release 3-4 champs at once, rather than releasing them sequentially. At this point there's no excitement to a new content patch or champion because they come too fast, we've been desensitized to them.

To be honest, there's actually a lot of merit to Icefrog's patching methods for DotA. With patches 6+ months apart and with enormous changelogs, every DotA player thinks every new patch is the best thing ever. It's always like "OMG 3 NEW HEROES! OMG 2 NEW ITEMS!". If you look at the major patch release threads for DotA, they're always overwhelmingly positive, whereas people tend to be far more critical/cynical looking at new LoL patches.

I think we have reached the point where any new champ ability in this top-down moba style game can be described as a combination/similarity to existing skills. There is really only so many different things an ability can do, and most of it has been done before in between 100+ LoL champions and however many Dota heros exist.

To be honest, Yi's kid sucks. They should reduce the dmg from alphastrike so this all-in build with dorans ring, no mr/armor whatsoever, into rabadon/lichbane loses its viability.
While I have no problem with high risk/high reward styles of play, with Yi it is just too much imho. You cant really punish him, beacuse even as a melee, he can farm so well with alpha strike. And thus you just hope that he doesnt get a reset in team fights. Just retarded, like techies in Dota.

And while it is kinda the same with blitz who is more or less uesless if he doesnt land a grab, at least its a skillshot. Fucking lowskill Yi players all the time, all-inning you with their bullshit full AP gambles.

That being said, what happened to fizz with ignite/barrier and 30-0-0? Incarnati0n went to #1 EUW with >1000 league points, then he was gone and fizz is now at 47.xx%. Did I miss something?

So if ya'll frequent the non-LoL part of TL, you may have heard that EG released Idra.

Imagine if he takes up lol. He'd probably play Tryn only for ENDLESS RAGE ENDLESS RAGE.

^While they are at it, just remove the AD removal while his E is on cooldown and maybe buff E and R in other ways as well. Yi really should be a viable AD instead of AP, it makes no sense.


I speculated about this earlier.

It wouldn't work. He'd get 9 people to rage at and just one makes him already rage so hard. He couldn't keep himself from getting permabanned and he couldn't find a team.
