Riot doesn't want an "old" champion to be in the spotlight, or should I say they want them to be trivial, far from strong.

Because they do not sell.

Champions who are "in (Riot) meta" are the ones who can sells skins and stuff. They will have 2-4 months "in spotlight" where they are considered "strong". Some champions can be allowed to be "strong" for 6 months or a whole season.

Then the nerf bat will come to make that champ "trivial", and allow some new other champs to be "in the meta".

.

Therefore, some champions like Kayle will be nerfed much more than "buffed", until the round-robin of nerfs make her relatively "strong" again. But still not as strong as some other champions who are left untouched for years (Ahri, Jinx, Irelia, ...).

For now, new champions like AuSol will be "favoured" ;-)
