Physical DPS Items are really broken and need a stiff nerf

I'm Sejuani with item 2138 item 3143 item 3083 item 3742 item 1401 item 3109 item 3047

The enemy MonkeyKing with item 3147 item 3031 item 3074 item 3087 item 3095 item 3142 .

I am getting melted in seconds. I can't even tank at all. He just ults and I disappear. I'm literally pure health and armor and yet he is melting me like butter.

This is the same story with every other physical dps who uses similar items.

Mage items suck, tank items suck, support items suck, but these physical damage items are amazing. Seems fair.

You can't build against these items anymore. There are no "counters". Too much free damage. Lethality is OP. Too many charged up abilities.

With the items I had, I should have been able to ignore all physical damage champs in the game, yet I am getting abolished. Why? Because phsycial damage items are severely overpowered right now.

#1 you're full of shit I doubt you got melted in a couple seconds.

#2 you built a support item with shitty stats so you didn't really max out your tank potential against wukong.

Considering Sej’s passive armor I don’t believe for a second that WU instantly solokilled you with that build. But yes he would win against you in a late game fight, that’s how damage is supposed to work.

I don’t however believe you got “melted.”

As a damage dealing player who has fought against lategane tanks like mao/see/grag and the like I can say from experience that armor and health means something to us.

"Physical DPS items are really broken and need a stiff nerf"

Shows a Wukong with 6 burst items.

I know right. Armor is almost pointless despite physical damage is much more common than magic damage.

I can't believe that a bronze wukong build got upvoted on gameplay

this is what the community has become

14950 gold vs 18300 gold.

Hmm, I wonder why the bruiser with 3300 gold more in synergistic stats beats the tank with less gold in synergistic stats. Especially since the tank also has an item that has seriously bad gold efficiency on a single champion (Knight's Vow).

No, he doesnt kill you, solo, in seconds. You woukd need to literally be standing there afk for him to kill you slowly over 6+ seconds, especially taking in to account your passive.

item 3075 item 3110 you should have built those 2 if you wanna man fight him late game

item 3109 give little to no armor to matter and its good if you have a partner anyway (and your supp built it so why are you building a supp item on a jg tank?)
