** HEARTSTEEL was poised to be the successor of "K/DA" with Riot launching numerous campaign promoting the group for most of later 2023, even having a fictional article hyping their presence. Despite the [[VisualEffectsOfAwesome massive production value]] and all the marketing it receives, the initial reaction was mildly positive at best, with "Paranoia" not having as much reach as "ALL OUT" get within six month timespan. Common criticism includes general indecisiveness of what the genre was supposed to be and [[UncertainAudience who were they're appealing to]], lacking highlights that makes K/DA as iconic as what they are ([[EnsembleDarkhorse Akali]]), and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking being another skin line that has]] [[BaseBreakingCharacter Ezreal] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking in the roster]].

** Warwick had a case of a champion VGU that took a character that was never exactly ''disliked'' (he was always a fairly popular [[SkillGateCharacter beginner's jungler]]) yet managed to be hailed as one of Riot's best reworks in the history of the game. With gameplay, his VGU preserves the core functionality of abilities that made Warwick [[SimpleYetAwesome an appealingly simple champion]], but given additional bells and whistles to make actually using them fun and exciting, as well as ironing out some design cruft to make a kit whose [[SuperPersistentPredator purpose and power]] are very clearly-defined. Thematically, the decision to turn him from a straightforwardly evil werewolf into [[UnscrupulousHero an equally-bloodthirsty, yet antiheroic cyborg vigilante]] was an unexpected, but also highly-regarded new twist for the character.

** Yuumi's 2023 rework to attempt to make her less hated by the fanbase did nothing to help. While its goal was to remove Yuumi from pro-play and make her skewed towards beginners by forcing her to remain with her ADC rather than attaching to her jungler or toplaner and gutting her ability to provide free stats to her attached champion while forcing her to leave their side, it did the opposite; Yuumi instead was forced to remain on her ally even ''more'' by disincentivizing her from ever leaving her lane partner and became even more heavily contested in pro-play and high elo while becoming a troll pick in low elo with a sub 40% winrate. To make matters worse, fans of the character were devastated, begging Riot to revert her rework and give her more skill expression to balance her properly. All attempts at trying to change her power budget around to boost her low elo winrate failed, and in the end Riot simply gave up, nerfing all her abilities and keeping her around 40% winrate in all elos.
