Unpopular opinion: Juggernauts require rework

Title. Juggernauts have been parts of the balancing circle at toplane since the beggining of the game. The problem is tho that Riot hasn't allowed them to see the light of day for way too long due to the crap itemization and the overall damage in the game which works against them. I have to say tho that Riot attempted to rework juggernauts back at patch 5.16 but failed horribly and ended up just doing nerfs to champions that did not need them (Darius as exception) Source: https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch/patch-516-notes So, Isn't it about time that we get a juggernaut rework like assassins and and mages got? Isn't it time that juggernauts return healthily at the game, because I am not talking about buffing them, but more like balancing them so that they can survive more than 2 seconds burst by a midlaner or a adc while at the same time them to be useful in a teamfight.

Oh, you mean buff them and bring back the meta of better top wins? Because that's basically what they did with assassins. they gave them a bunch of armor pen. flat buffs.

If you didn't notice, entire season 8 top lane was wrecking havoc because there was no adc that would do enough damage to shut them down.(with the exception of ezreal and vayne) Now that adcs are back online, jagguernauts have counters and are back to their "weak" spot.

they were probably in control of the meta before that too sometime, but i wasn't playing the game then.
