Former Fnatic mid laner Nemesis highlighted what he believes is the biggest issue plaguing League of Legends tournaments in 2025: a stagnant and overly balanced meta that limits creativity with builds and punishes risk-taking at higher elo.
“I don’t think the game is too balanced but rather too bland- items are overly simplified, runes haven’t had meaningful updates in ages, objectives all feel the same, and patches barely shift anything at high MMR,” Nemesis said on X (formerly Twitter), responding to a post by Midbeast about the meta feeling too balanced.
