Riot working to fix League of Legends' "weird" Bot Lane meta

sportskeeda.com:

Riot Games' lead champion designer, Bryan "CatchesAxes," shared his thoughts on League of Legends' evolving pre-season meta through a post on the title's official site. In it, the individual suggested that the developers are trying to solve some bot lane problems, saying:

According to CatchesAxes' post from February 10, the MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) is heading towards a "highly disrupted and uncertain" meta. Thus, all emerging issues will be looked at one at a time.

There have been multiple changes that have arrived in LoL over the last few patches, dating back to pre-season 2023. This implies that things are changing pretty fast in the metagame.

Thus, to keep up with League of Legends' good reputation for receiving timely game balances, Riot took up the ongoing overpowering issue with the bot lane, which will likely be fixed before the next patch cycle.

League of Legends' developers are currently focusing on the overpowering nature of ADC (Attack Damage Carry) support units like Heimerdinger, who are extremely dominant in professional games. Riot believes that this issue is bigger than champion imbalances and thus needs a bigger solution. In this regard, CatchesAxes stated:

The team is also planning to show some love to melee supports like Alistar, Braum, Galio, Nilah, and Leona in the upcoming patch 13.3, to make bot lane skirmishes more realistic and challenging.

CatchesAxes also mentioned in the official post that gameplay developers are currently working on the emerging meta of the fast ganking bot lane that features both high-skill solo queues and pro play, which they think needs some modifications.

Apart from balancing champions and offering gameplay tweaks, Riot is also planning to nerf attack-damage-build
