They used to release new weapons putting them on sale in their cash shop for the first week and during this time they would be extremely overpowered ruining gameplay and incentivising everyone to use the new meme gun. The moment the sale ended they released a balance patch nerfing it into obscurity. That was their business model right up until they just abandoned the project entirely to hop on the MOBA bandwagon.

Do not trust this company to do anything beyond what's best for them especially at the cost of you.

Funny this was also the league model when they were releasing champions practically every month
