This is very true because look at it this way. Syndra didnt sell very well, so what they did this week after her release, is make her free, maybe people will play her and buy her. Rengar, Jayce, Zyra, and Diana were ALL free after 2 weeks of release, Syndra was put on rotation 4 days after her inception. Darius isnt getting nerfed because he is very easy, he sells well etc etc. Ezreal isnt getting nerfed because hes easy, sells well et etc. Riot cares about the community, but there are simple things that they ignore so they can keep money out of the equation. There are not any truly BROKEN champions imo. But riot puposely ignores the 6 or so MUST BE NERFED CHAMPIONS because they will not be played. And therefore people will say "uggh fucking stupid, this champ SUX, im not buying him anymore". And If you havent noticed bout 70-80% of LoL, plays op champions because they have a instant advantage, not necessarily because they like them. I main orianna because she is extremely fun, great utility, and has decent damage output all the way into late game as long as she farmed, and got a few kills my stats are usually in the park of 10/2/21 on a good game. BUT i also play teemo and xin when they are needed. Take it from someone who sees about the same 29 or so champs every day. and plays avg of 5 games a night. I think i know what im talking about.
