Can we have a single season with a top lane meta without tanks dominating?

Would be fun to have skill matchups top lane again like jax vs riven and the likes.

Right now its tank spam abusing bramble vest + tabi + broken support items.

Tanks need to be nerfed down from jungle + top, if they werent so dominant and the op supp items got nerfed hyper carry adcs wouldnt be so untouchable.

May I recommend someone like Urgot, who potentially melt tanks?

Once got ganked by a Sej and she just went from 80% to 0 in seconds.

and then u started grouping and u realized ur champ is a useless pile of shit in 5v5s against a decent bot lane.

he gets kited easily and most of his shit is dodgeable.

why play urgot when maokai is up? why play urgot when chogath is open?

they have 3 more cc and cant bekilled in teamfights all while haviing true damage (chogath)

By pure coincidence, a world champ game went on between Immortals and (I want to say Gigabyte) Gaming, and the winning team had an Urgot. Pretty brutal too.

So don't be calling him a useless piece of shit.

My point is that Urgot can counter tank games. But if you find that you still can't win, then just git gud.

yes but he cant do anything vs adcs/supports that out range him greatly and can kite his ass pretty damn easy.

It is because Urgot is like Eve, he is a secondary initiator. Have your Maokai/Sejuani/Amumu dive in and pop their ult on the enemy team and ahve urgot follow immediately after.

So you want someone that can shut down tanks, adcs, and support.

Ever heard of game balance? You dream champion does not exist.

Okay then. Play a god damn adc. I see Vaynes top every now and then and they just cause cancer in the top lanes when they do. And we'll see a lot of Quinns this week too since she's in the rotation.
