I can't be bothered to read all this but I'd like to pretend I have so that I can soapbox my own agenda to help the teams and playstyles that I like and nerf those that I struggle against under the thin pretence of balance.
please take this post as my input to that effect  |

I couldn't be bothered to read all this, but I'd like to pretend I have so that I can soapbox my own opinion to rally against nerfing all the OP teams I enjoy playing in this unbalanced environment & keep all the teams I can bash on easily under the thin pretenSe of sarcasm.

There, fixed it for you!  |

It's pretence because it's spelt that way in British English. As an aside whilst visiting Minnesota I was once asked "so what's your native language?". However I don't want to turn this into a conversation about whose version of the language is "better".
Nevertheless, your "correction" is misguided.
I was trying to use humour to remind us to guard against the dangers of making sweeping changes based on what vocal groups want without a thorough and non-biased evaluation of the meta, win rates and so forth. |

Humour works better when it's funny.
How thorough was the evaluation before releasing the current rules? |

I find that humour is funniest when I agree with it, and of much lower quality when I disagree with it. |
