He lacks carrying potential.

You can be the godliest tank in the world, but if your team isnt hitting the right targets, you cant do it yourself.

If youre building cinder on top mao then I dont have anything else to say.

if we are talking jungle Mao, there are much better tank junglers to carry with than him.

Unfortunately not, when your team is attacking the tank while their adc chops them all down even with your ult....

He's great, but you can't hard carry on him, you can only strongly enable your carries to carry requiring your teammates to not be eating crayons in their spare time, and not playing Vayne & Kata.

Actually, I like Vayne as a champion, interesting and powerful mechanics balanced by a poor early game and poor range. It's the majority of Vayne mains I can't stand :P

He is not OP, they nerfed him after worlds. The only way to carry with Mao is to go Ap - I've played him once and he was decent. My final build was Seraph, Rabadon, GA, boots, Voidstaff, Hydra (I was kind of trolling this game). I was 1v2ing their top + jungler and got really fed super fast. His AP ratios are not big for a reason - he is a basically an AP assasin.

I play him a ton, but Mao can only carry into the mid game when his base damage is still relevant. Late he's just a cc bot. A very good one, but still a cc bot

I honestly think it's because he's boring. He's one of the best toplane tanks in the game, but I think he's incredibly dull to play. I would rather play Sion if I wanted an OP top lane tank.
