tank meta complaint with a minor in solo Q

so , im here to explain the flaws of tank meta + possible suggestions

tank meta atm is OP essentially if you dont have 2 tanks on your team or 1 tank + 1 soroka/sona you essentially lost.

but I plan to explain why

you get a tank , lets say top lane or jungle. you get ahead a level or two and suddenly your an unstoppable monster that delivers boat loads of damage whilst at the same time able to tank.

so now a big issue is a fed tank doing more damage than a carry and yet having more sustain. that's the flaw.

list of champions off the top of my head that are inherently tanks but still pull it off.(slightly broken)

tank fizz tank akali tank ekko cho gath wu-kong

now if any of these champs get ahead either hard countering their lane or achieving ganks , they are literally unstoppable dps monsters whilst being unkillable.

my solution

either scale back base ability damage on tank champs , champs in general and have abilties scale with ap/ad more heavily instead of just base damage.

second solution

keep things the way they are but make each tank item reduce your damage out put. ( say 10-15% an item and maybe tack on an added cc function onto each item or onto the tank tree) so that you become more of a utility than an outright dps monster.

solo q. bring it back. I don't need to state any reason why it should be obvious.

but I think tank meta needs a major adjustment if anything else.
