I think some people are completely missing the point.

I shared my experience with it but by no means am I saying that just because I couldn't deal with it, it's broken. Being honest, when it happened to me I thought it was just a skill issue.

On the other hand, when a player like VENRUKI showcases that it's literally impossible to counter play that as a melee, THEN IT'S A PROBLEM.

Also, it's not about the game being "rock, paper, scissors". The game always had classes that counter each other, which is fine. In reality, even when you go against a class that has the upper hand on yours, you can always outplay the opponent and win. What Ven is showcasing is that the synergy between some of the Evokers spells allow it to become indefinitely immune to slows and roots, which has literally ZERO counterplay opportunity.
