Honestly, you should just buff every fighters range to 175 at this point
Maybe an exception for bruisers/fighters with hard gap closers but anything relatively immobile should just be given this treatment. There's really no reason not to anymore.

Maybe not from your perspective, but Riot knows what changes are planned in the future. This patch was specifically for immobile, tanky fighters, so they likely have other plans for slightly mobile fighters, and fighter/assassins.

The reason I say this is because 175 range opens up more gameplay believe it or not. It gives melee vs melee trades more room to work with due to minion aggression. It helps in general farming because of how minuons like to bunch up and tackle you by your ankles and not let you move. It's just a cleaner range overall and the mobility in this game has skyrocketed. This range also helps melees in ranged match-ups. And this isn't a change that suddenly improves their teamfighting by immeasurable amounts, most will have their same old problems but at least will have an easier time in lane and what-not.
I agree. First, they started giving champions like Renekton and Mordekaiser extended range buffs. Then, they actually MADE a top laner with over 125 auto attack range (Tahm Kench). And now, they're giving Mordekaiser 200 AA range, Darius 175, and Garen 175, along with buffing Nasus' Q range (although it's not over 150). They should just do the same thing they did with everyones movement speed a while back, and just raise it all across the board.
Reducing range differences is probably one of the easiest ways to make the game more balanceable.
Look at SMITE, everyone is ranged in that game and that probably makes it easier to balance.
