[2021] Riot Scruffy on Misleading Item Data

These articles aren't proof read by the entire company, it likely only is seen by a handful of people (likely in disciplines that have zero direct interaction with the game, like communications or publishing). We don't balance using this "only" this data at all, this is a single graph out of tens if not hundreds we reference when making design and balance decisions for the game. Keep in mind that while we have dedicated data experts, not all of us that work on the game are experts ourselves and it is very easy to misinterpret or miss certain data points. We are all humans and trying our best.
