So unless they change the way armor pen and damage being so high is currently, I'm going to be sad

For reference: http://www.surrenderat20.net/2017/04/46-pbe-update.html#more

New itemization for tanks, GA being changed, etc.

But my biggest wtf to this is the way they're reducing health on all of the tank items with 500hp and giving more armor, actually making them weaker to adcs, due to the fact that LW and Lord domns and Black cleaver exist. the tankiest builds you'll see right now is like Sion's item 3047 item 3068 item 3065 item 3083 item 3748 item 3800... just because of the fact stacking resistances is not good because of how much penn is in the game, same reason why Rammus and other resistant stacking tanks are lackluster when it comes to how much punishment they can take compared to health tanks.

I'm just worried for my bros in the toplane/jungle are gonna be hurt more than they are being benefited from these changes.

Repertoir said they have planned changes for how penetration works

I'm hoping this means no more ridiculous "I nullify half of your purchased defensive stats"

"Tanks weak to ADC's"

What game have you been playing?

A little salty about how the new Banshee's Veil is. As someone who prefers it over qss on an adc, it feels bad :^(

Riot did say they were changing pen along with tank items with the mid-season update.

Would just like to point out bonus armor is cut in half with 1 mastery (which is pretty simple to get if you run fervor,warlords or deathfire. something a lot of ADCs get)and item 3035 which is 1300 gold,item 3036 and item 3033 are just extensions,which both are attached with a anti tank item,the up to 15% bonus damage of an upgraded item 3034 (and I am sure with most tanks its pretty simple to have an extra 1K HP...like Chogath Nautilus ect.) or a item 3123. for a DrMundo I guess. so yeah...one is clearly better then the other. as overall unless a healer is there or mundo is ulting for that 250 HP a second in combat,you don't really need it...and a lot of supports RN are either A:a CC support Thresh Morgana Bard I guess... or B:a CC "support" Lulu Lux Sona(well,she can heal.)Velkoz Zyra edit:Just to clarify I know Bard can heal,but not counting it as it has a long cooldown and a 10 second windup for upgrading. where something like Soraka does his heal every like 2 seconds.
