Feels like there is no item that specifically counters Armor Pen stackers

I feel we need something for Armor Pen stackers who posses burst damage abilities and don't care about attack speed reductions.

All of the Armor items either counter attackspeed or have another gimmick like item 3742 movespeed and item 3068 burn damage.

Flat armor counters Lethality, but is still shredded by percent pen. Armor pen stackers get both and make current armor items seemingly irrelevant.

Something similar was taken care of over on the AP side where there was no item that really dealt with damage over time. Riot gave us item 3194 to fill the void.

Something with Health and Armor that has an additional effect of reducing AD ability damage would be an ideal go-to item.

What are your thoughts?

item 3193 counters burst as does item 3053

These champs also tend to lack the burst to kill a tanky target if said target has some hp as well as armor. Which means they've done about 50-70% of your hp max (unless they're hella fed and ahead... so should be carrying). And now are not a threat for the next 40+ sec until they have ult again. Meaning they can't kill you and they can't kill your squishy teammates.
