 * So you really wanna NERF ranged carries, the most difficult role in the game, the most fragile one with almost no slef-defense, the most item dependent one?

Yes. "Most-difficult" is subjective; when I'm playing Caitlyn and I right-click something and it dies before it has a prayer of retaliating (not that it could, anyway; 90 cal net, baby), I don't feel oppressed even a little bit. As someone who plays every role, "dealing tons of damage from the safety of my team's backline while everyone dedicates themselves to stopping damage from reaching me" doesn't really strike the "hardest role in the game" chord.


 * To do waht exactly?...make bruisers even more facerolling than they already are?

Implying that Riven is easier to play than Jinx is kind of silly. If you don't believe me, then play both for 5 games, and post results. "But Riven is soooooo overloaded!" -- yes, that's a symptom of ADCs' current state. If her kit did not have any of the things that it has, she would not be viable. That is exactly what should stop happening, but that can't stop as long as ADCs exist in the way that they currently do.
