They complain about any little change to their precious meta. Agent is more viable than their precious Jett/Raze and they cry on twitter till the devs change it.
Why do they insist on dooming us to Raze/Jett being the only consistently viable picks? Is it them refusing to learn? Is it our fault for listening to the pros too much?
maybe because its a tactical shooter with weapon inaccuracy passed 2 shots and while moving but theres an agent who moves faster than lighting mcqueen and has 2 opportunities (plus the 2 kill refresh) each round to be fully accurate while sliding like its Fortnite chapter 3
Also this was only after realizing Neon was broken for a few months imagine the meta after a year of pros grinding Neon
Dude i know that but like u forgot the fact that league's meta tho has only one map involves like a hundred different items and over 140 champions wherein even a slight change in an item effects leads to people dropping some champion as now it's not that good with the reduced effects or people completely changing the build of the champion which causes direct changes in the play style of the team. Same stuff with buffing or nerfing champions
Uhh, no?
Let's take the next map rotation as an example. We have Haven, Lotus, Split, Bind, Pearl, Fracture and Abyss.
Haven and Fracture would've been Neon maps 100%, and that's ok as Jett and Raze also have maps where they are the preferred choice
Bind no chance unless you're like Nongshim or something, Lotus would be 70% Raze and 30% Neon, still a Raze map overall
Abyss would've been a Jett map 100%, maybe you CAN play Neon on Pearl but I would say similar to lotus, 70% Jett and 30% Neon, and finally we have Split, which would be a Raze map.
In total, Neon has like 2.5 maps, Jett has 2 maps and Raze has 2.5 maps. So Neon being 'so busted' like she was wouldn't have made a difference. Instead it would've added VARIETY to the duelist class. But no, we stick to Jett/Raze on every map cuz who gives a shit about variety?
Riot could've just waited until Masters Bangkok ended to nerf Neon, but they decided to nerf her before the season and honestly made her worse than where she was pre-buff. Now there isn't even an INCENTIVE to play Neon over Raze/Jett...
The pro scene is what gives riot want to lean into, so player feedback will not be heard that much. And if they can’t buff too much to avoid power creep they have to nerf down things, so pros just complain because they won’t perform as well. I don’t know if what I said just made sense but yeah pros have trouble with changement, I’m pretty sure the ones that comes from CS complain more
Tbh it's not that shifting honestly, it shifts but a lot of stuff is same, fade / sova ia still used on most maps while kayo/breach is on the flash roles for much time ,Jett/ raze is the most played duelists, omen/viper is still played a hecking lot + nowadays mostly cypher is played so it's not that changing
