Icefrog sticks with his balance philosophy while league doesn't which ends up working in their favor most of the time.TKiller wrote:
More like they're designed differently and icefrog had better success with his way of balance and design than Riot team with theirs.
League is bi-polar in that regard. One patch Riot will be like "We love junglers and we want them to be diverse and Viable as non secondary supports!" Next Patch "Junglers are diverse, but we hate them now so we are going back on everything we said previously!". Riots does a complete 180 on what they say very often.
The beginning on season 4 had the best variety League has ever had, but Riot slowly started picking down on things and now we are back down to our standard 15-20 champion picks. If it's not fun to watch in LCS it's getting nerfed.
