Can we add Juggernaut to the list of roles?
Let's face it; they aren't fighters.
Fighters have decent mobility (or extremely high, in
's case), need to buy at least a few damage items, and rely on their sustain coming from at least a little lifesteal. (Especially those that buy
)
The Juggernauts on the other hand have little mobility, but still have the same damage output as fighters with one or no damage items at all while building complete defenses. Not to mention tons of true damage or massive team/self buffs. Neither of which are things fighters have.
They're different roles and are built differently, since the champions that can be considered juggernauts have such huge advantages that they don't actually need more than one damage item to to put the enemy's assassin to shame with their 1000 true damage targeted attacks. OR their dragon.
Edit, for those of you who don't know the official definition they've got:
Fighters are close range combatants that possess a mix of offensive and defensive capabilities. While they don't have as much utility as a tank or as much damage as an assassin, a fighter's damage will add up over time to make it a major threat. Each fighter has a unique blend of mobility, damage, disruption and durability.
Close Range- Only with their auto attacks. Not with their 1000 true damage abilities being able to cast over walls. Mobility-nope Lacking the utility of a tank- nope: Pull+slow+massive healing, silence+extra defenses+ massive healing, and the only ability in the game that can turn a jungle monster into a champion+constant shielding. Along with the fact they're all large to block shots. Lacking the kill potential of an assassin- Nope: two have ways to deal 2400 bursts mid-game, both with half of that being true damage. The other can deal that same damage with a single ability, though that at least is a type that can be defended. Sustained damage- I'll give them that, but the damage is only "sustained" if the target was a tank who wouldn't die from an assassin's burst anyway.
alternate in and out as strongest pick. Was leesin there? yes but was he ever a op strongest pick? No, just a "good" one. Leesin certainly is not a contested pick anymore.
