@Whatever that damn name is: That's why I liked it so much too. The larger part of it wasn't even my idea. Only the details are.

@Johnnyboy:

There are only 117 champions. And while it is indeed good to nerf the strongest champions, Riot isn't doing the opposite - buffing the weakest champions. This creates the problem, that the strongest champions constantly get nerfed, creating NEW strongest champions. After two or three patches, the 20% strongest champions have been nerfed, the other 80% haven't been touched. And now, we have a new strongest 20%. Those get nerfed. Etc. That way, the average champion gets weaker and weaker forever. If they would buff the weakest 20% at the same time however, there would be a balance. Maybe it would mean as much buffing and nerfing, but the champions would retain the same overall balance.
