Over 60% of players are playing "Lightning Spear". Where is the build diversity?

As the title suggests, and I guess the number will only go up to 70 or even more percentage.

I understand everyone gravitates towards the OP builds, but the build diversity in 0.2 seems even lesser than the "broken" builds we had in 0.1.

And from my understanding in the Q/A and their recent patch update preview, it will not get nerfed.

Almost every streamer in SC is playing this build. After trying multiple builds over the past few days with Lich / monk / warrior and even bleed amazon, nothing in the game can match this, like not even close.

The build costs just 2-3 divine as of now to get started to blast tier 15-16 maps easily. If you want to do damage or clear thats even 1/5th as good as this on other classes, you need very expensive gear and jewels. What's the point in even trying to do other stuff?

I'm not asking for this to get nerfed, but could we perhaps have more SIGNIFICANT buffs on other weapons / skills? It's very demotivating to try and play any other build when we have the Spark/Herald screen blow-up back in a stronger form, which is also very cheap to get started.

Side note: Most of my friends who tried other builds like lich etc. already quit the game, the ones that are still playing and enjoying are playing LS, obviously.

Also, since everything else got nerfed to the ground, the difference between this build and almost every other build is EXTREME. I hope 0.3 atleast has some better build diversity. For now, I'm just going to wait as investing time to grind with any other build seems really boring, knowing you can just invest a few divines and reach god-tier abilities which you never would with other builds.

Edit: When I mean build diversity, I'm not expecting equal number of monk and huntress players. The issue is the gap in this specific build and 99 % of other builds. It's too wide and de-incentivizes most other playstyles.

While it probably is more powerful than most other things did you not think that a large number of people were going to play a Lightning Fury Zon? Same thing with Monk and Sorc. Tons of people played these to death last league and are probably tired of them.

it doesn't really matter what portion of playerbase is at LS right now, drastically overpowered stuff shouldn't exist, as well as drastically underpowered.
