By far the biggest stain on the League community are the "Riot apologists".

What's a Riot apologist you might ask? They are the people that always support whatever decision Riot makes no matter what. They don't think for themselves. And they're everywhere, especially when you question the wisdom of the Church of Riot. Instead, they just defer to whatever Riot chooses to do as infallible and necessary for the game.

This could be for a couple of reasons: 1) it's easier to not think and let someone else do it for you or 2) Riot made the game so therefore everything they do is ordained by God. It's unclear exactly why the Riot apologists are so irrational.

But the one interesting thing about the Riot apologist is that they are often unable to provide you a coherent argument defending their position. They're found lobbing insults or leaving one line responses decrying the intelligence of their detractors. At best, you'll often hear such logic as: "Ur not pro if u still can't play her with the nerf. I render the nerf usless due to my skills.

P.S its called a build change" The implication here is that regardless of the severity of a nerf a player can surmount it with superior skills if they just change their build. Of course this doesn't account for one of two players of similar skill being handicapped because that's just too much of a stretch for the average Riot apologist's brain.
