True damage is ruining the game.

Why have diversity when you can just have unlimited amounts of true damage! I just got through playing as Urgot vs new Fiora. I have 360 armor, 3k health, 1800 mana, and 346 ad. Now previously if fiora didn't have any armor pen (which in this game she didn't) she would barely be able to even break through Urgot's 800 bonus health shield before he butcher'd her. Eh, why even build tank anymore. When these shiny new champion buffs come along and break it. Tanks are becoming increasingly more worthless. Thanks to true damage like champs like vayne, darius, fiora, and to a lesser extent vel'koz. Tanks melt as fast as squishies. And better yet, fiora and vayne's true damage is based on max health!

Now, you may say "the way to counter true damage is by building lots of health, like volibear!" I'm sorry sir, then you neglect their high physical damage, and again, MAX health true damage. It stays the relative same damage, regardless of how much health you have.

Riot has showed increased interest in giving or buffing more true damage, to champions who quite frankly don't need it.

I see very little reason to build tank anymore. The only feasible way to kill a true damage fighter/marksmen is to pray to god you can properly kite them and take them down before they annihilate you in 2 (or in vayne's case 3) hits.

I think we need some sort of way to counteract true damage. That's the only thing riot could actually comprehend. Because apparently giving garen true damage makes sense. Please support the ANTI-TD movement.

Tank stats are there to delay people, not make you invulnerable. This might actually be a good topic for discussion, but your reasoning behind bringing it up is incredibly flawed.

Max health true dmg is bs, but true dmg is quite balanced.

So now we're back to calling tanks worthless, good to know this board has their opinions in order.
