How long before

We make resists meaningful? I'd like to actually be able to survive a hit or two before dying.

This season has completely devalued any sort of resistances to damage. Instead of just constantly buff/nerfing damage items lets see some tank item buffs.

Actually MR works just fine. If you build enough of it. Armor on the other hand completely useless. You will be better off just killing your opponent before he can attack you.

Just a item 3211 or item 1057 Can hold off any mage from hurting you until they get enough damage to make an impact. Of course Ryze Azir Malzahar Cassiopeia are exceptions because they specialize in DPS. But item 3194 fucks them.

But you can have 5 armor items and tabis and still get deleted by an AD threat because of true damage and/or all the means of negating armor. I saw a Zed shred a full armor Ornn because he built item 3147 item 3142 item 3071 item 3036 item 3814 item 3111 plus sudden impact.

I was once a Sejuani with item 1413 item 3075 item 3083 item 3047 and parts of a item 3190 , plus conditioning and passive, and I got shredded in 3 seconds by a Yi who did 50% of my HP in true damage.

And a lot of champs have armor reduction/ignoring in their kits. This is supposed to be for bruisers who don't buy damage, so they can do some damage, but a lot of them end up building damage anyway.

TFW in ARAM you are a tank and the enemy team is full magic damage and you bathe in their tears with item 3065 item 3194 item 3111 , but if they're full AD you still get melted with item 3075 item 3143 item 3068 item 3110 item 3047 .

You can't build armor if you're building pure HP

Just because they don't see play doesn't mean they don't exist...

They nerfed any resistance and defence to the ground, ie. tank support items and shields, just making this game a mindless one-shot fiesta, where you don't even need to think about who to engage on. You can even oneshot every tank, if you just got a little advantage. And games end at 20 minutes, or a bit later just because free wave clearing, being even more anti-fun.
