Why play a tank when you can't tank shit and assassins do more dmg and often more cc?

Like there's literally no reason to play an entire class because the class they're meant to counter literally still takes a giant dump on them in every category. Why play Warwick (admittedly a bruiser) when you can play Evelynn. Evelynn's clear is faster, she has better cc, better ganks, is safer with her heal, does SIGNIFICANTLY more damage. Why play Zac when you can play Lee Sin. Lee has more mobility, more damage, more cc, more utility.

Then you get to building armor. You can be a 200 armor Warwick with your dmg reduction on and Zed can just do 5k damage through all of that with these stupid fucking items item 3071 item 3147 item 3814 item 3036 . These stupid fucking hyper mobile assassins just have no counterplay now other than being a more mobile assassin. It's fucking stupid.

evelynn and lee sin do NOT have better CC than tanks, let alone Zac lol, but sure, lets throw all objectivity out the window. Why play tanks when Soraka 1 shots me when i build full MR as maoki!?

Building tank doesn't mean you can just walk past 5 people while they're all ulting you and 1 shot the nexus

Assassins can't do that. You are just lying. Armor is fine deal with it.

while yes tank items/stats are underwhelming, this doesn't give you licence to go full hyperbolic and claim that assassins have more cc than tanks.

Lee Sin does not have more crowd control than Zac.

Which assassin got more cc than a tank ? what are you even talking about??

Suddenly Lee is an assassin now and somehow having just the knockback from his ult means having more CC than someone who has CC in most of their abilities. Dude people might take you seriously if you didn't exaggerate things to such stupid and ridiculous levels

And fighters Tank more because of their damage + life steal, self shields, or damage reduction abilities. They also have more suvivability because they can instantly kill carries and mega mobility
