The Riot Special

A phrase used by the community in the video game League of Legends, when the balance team nerf a champion because said champion uses an overpowered item, then nerfs the item without buffing the champion as compensation, leaving the champion to die and become forgotten for about 2 years.

"Dude, my main just got The Riot Special!"
"So who are you going to play for the next 2 years?"
