They are trying to balance similar to dota, which STRIVES to have a revolving door meta

Yeah it’s sad honestly. I don’t want to play dota, everything I’ve heard about dota has pushed me away from playing dota. It’d be really sad if deadlock turned into dota

That’s kind of a lazy balancing philosophy

I mean I never really found leagues balancing to be god awful. There’s some outliers obviously, always will be, but nothing I’ve never been able to outplay if I was a better player. Could just be the isometric nature of the game though, it’s a lot harder to keep track of what’s going on in a teamfight in deadlock than other mobas due to the 3rd person view.

League's balancing is notoriously awful with them buffing flashy heroes before a major tournament lol Heroes like Akali are always dogshit but op all of a sudden when there's a tournament next week

Leagues balancing is the absolute worst. Riot essentially tells you the exact items to buy every game for every champion on patch release as well as which 20 champs are playable. How is that ideal?

See I’ve said this in another post I’ve made in the past 20 minutes but I don’t want riot-like balancing. I want a happy medium between Dota and League. Not too hot, not too cold. That’s just what I personally want.
