What I think you're missing, Kazkis, is that this is a game that people like to play. In order for people to continue enjoying playing it, variety needs to increase over time. Since most Champions function in what is really only a handful of ways, adding those doesn't add a lot of variety. This is directly related to why Warhammer 40K keeps releasing new editions and why Magic: the Gathering keeps changing which cards are legal. It's also why people play on other maps to begin with; I believe the famous phrase is "variety is the spice of life," and for a lot of people, champions just aren't enough variety because the game tends to flow in the same way overall.

The same game ad nauseam is not "stability," it's "stagnation."
