Why is MR and hp so effective against ap?

Why are they not allowed a PROPER max hp dmg item? Why do they get only two flat pen items, one of which is boots and the other a situational item, while AD burst casting assassins get 3 and all 3 are useful and heavy ad items?

To put it simply, why is it toxic for a syndra to burst you down but somehow its totally fine for a zed or talon to burst you with both abilities and auto attacks?

Because most AP champs dont rely or use Auto Attacks at all and just rely on their ability dmg. Where-as

melee champs auto attacks are usually tied in to their kit or are kinda required

Zed's auto attack is more so crucial AFTER he uses all his abilities due to his passive his auto attack deals extra magic damage (once, then on cooldown) to you when you're (I think) Below 20% hp. But with zeds ult, it's honestly useless if he cant land any of his skillshots on you, it practically does the same dmg as an auto attack

This is because Riot has decided that they wanted a season of having bruisers and assassins being the dominant factor in this meta - instead of mages. Maybe, a bunch of devs were fondly recalling the League of Cleaver (2012) or a bunch of new devs were hired who weren't aware how bad imbalance actually was.
