It's because of incompetent people like Riot August, who unironically states that Taliyah is an outstanding mid laner and actively fights against changes to champions that desperately need them. He even said Swain and her are OP in mid lmao. I remember when before Swain's last rework, when it took a goddamn entire for them to admit that his previous rework made him disappear from solo lanes and become a support, August spent a literal year trying to convince everyone that Swain was totally a mid laner first and foremost when you literally couldn't even pick him by filtering for mid lane champs due to how irrelevant he was in the lane. He also states that Seraphine is a mid laner first too, which is laughable at best. It's due to people like him that obvious problems like these take Riot upwards of a year to get lousily addressed, let alone solved. There's just way too many prideful ignorami in this company.

I hate August

Important: Taliyah mid isn't balanced around jungle, it's balanced around Taliyah mid (her winrate there is incredibly high and has been for years).

Jhin also has an insane amount of text, and yet he is regarded as the peak of game design here.

Jhin's passive may seem long, but it can be summed up as:

Haha 4

Seriously tho, number of words in a TT is not equal to how complex an ability is. Some simple things just need longer explanations especially when they deal with concepts that might not exist yet in the game.

Using Nasus as an example, imagine if "lifesteal" wasn't a game concept. His passive goes from "Nasus has X% lifesteal", to "Nasus' attacks heal him for X% of the post-mitigation damage they deal." Still pretty simple, but the word count doubles.

Does this account for the fact that every double hit stacks kraken slayer twice?

I teared up a little when I saw this. Seeing Jinx and Vi animated in something like this after 8 years is really something. Loved every second of it.

Rageblade is double strong on Senna because, as you mentioned, it ignores her crit damage mod (the damage penalty she pays for gaining increased crit) AND it allows her to “overcap” on crit chance by converting it to on-hit damage.

Senna has always been intended to infinitely scale range and AD, but part of the reason she gets crit on her passive is because it eventually caps out, reducing the DPS power she gets from late game soul stacking, especially on DPS builds that already have crit from items.

We’re currently investigating whether or not we should fix/change both of these interactions.

I will note that we don’t tend to balance items around singular users. If an item is weak but OP on 1 champ, we would investigate buffing the item so more people could use it and then nerf the champ if needed, especially if the item has a broad set of potential users. Things get more complicated if the item itself is incredibly niche and only has a few champs that wan...
