This article delves into the perceived failures of certain League of Legends champions, focusing on the case of Gangplank. The discussion explores the argument that some champions, like Gangplank, are so overpowered due to their diverse and potent abilities that they defy effective counterplay, making them a detriment to the game's balance. The article also touches upon the broader issue of champion design and the challenges of maintaining a healthy, balanced competitive environment in League of Legends. However, the provided text lacks sufficient data to fully explore the broader question of the impact of "being a '混子'" on a player's ranking.
The debate surrounding the most "failed" champions in League of Legends is a perennial one, fueled by the ever-evolving meta and the intricacies of champion design. While some champions may struggle to find relevance in certain patches, others, like Gangplank, seem to persist as potent forces regardless of the current meta.
Gangplank, the article argues, presents a compelling case study. His kit is undeniably complex and multifaceted. Possessing a blend of physical, magical, and true damage, alongside percentage-based damage types, the champion boasts an array of abilities designed to deal heavy damage, provide mobility, and impose control. His extensive kit includes multiple burst damage phases, long-range mobility, AoE control, and point-control mechanisms, making him an incredibly difficult target to contain, either individually or as part of a team. The fact that his primary nerfs have focused on minor aspects of his kit, rather than removing significant damage output or utility, further highlights the challenge of balancing his wide range of capabilities.
The author correctly points out that this level of complexity and power in a single champion is unusual and arguably exceeds the design space of similar games. This suggests a potential issue in the design process. The question arises: is Gangplank's success simply a product of exceptionally effective design, or does it represent an over-reliance on diverse damage types and mobility that ultimately undermines the game's intended balance?
While the article correctly identifies Gangplank as a prime example of a potentially problematic champion, it falls short in exploring the broader implications. The discussion about a player consistently performing poorly (being a "混子") and their impact on the champion's success is entirely absent. Without more information about the specific criteria used to assess "failure," such as win rates, pick rates, or player feedback, the analysis remains somewhat superficial. To truly understand the impact of champion design on the player experience, a more comprehensive analysis is needed. Further investigation into player behaviors and their impact on champion performance would provide a more thorough understanding of the game's balance issues.
Ultimately, the discussion of champion balance in League of Legends is a complex one, demanding careful consideration of various factors, including champion design, player behavior, and the ever-changing meta. The analysis of champions like Gangplank serves as a crucial step in the ongoing effort to maintain a healthy and engaging competitive environment for League players.

Summary: A sweeping tax cut bill, dubbed "One Big Beautiful Bill," passed the House of Representatives by a razor-thin margin of 215 to 214 votes on Thursday, May 22, 2025. The bill, mirroring President Trump's campaign slogan, extends previous tax cuts enacted during his first term, but also includes significant changes impacting healthcare, energy, and national security funding. The legislation's substantial tax cuts are countered by increased spending on border security, deportations, and defense, along with a controversial reform of Medicaid and a substantial debt ceiling increase of $4 trillion to offset the deficit. The bill's passage is likely to ignite further political debate and potentially face an uphill battle in the Senate.
