About the Zephyr Sage Change
In case you don't know, the change was that it now says "Play: Create an exact copy of a card in hand other than Zephyr Sage." This basically just kills the combo with Revitalizing Roar.
Dear Riot,
Please don't kill infinite combos when they either require several cards and/or a ton of mana; they're one of my favorite things to do in TCGs. This is the second combo I wanted to try after Taric + Playful Trickster, whose death in hindsight I'm ok with, but this combo required 3 cards, slow speed, and all 13 mana. This wasn't a balance problem in my eyes, but a UX one. Please fix that instead Riot.
Thank You

Thanks for the post.
We like combos too! We think it's a fun and cool design space.
The change to Zephyr Sage is a short term fix, because we wanted to act quickly and protect players from the extremely negative experience of being held hostage.
We will be working on a long term fix in the future that will allow combos to exist.
