Bruisers and their power
Bruisers have been and often are overpowered in every sense of the word. Now this isn't a rage post, I'd like to have an actual conversation about the issue and here are my points.
Tanks: Hard to kill, low-mid damage, and low-high CC/initiate abilities Bruisers: Hard to kill, HIGH damage, mid-high CC/initiate abilities, typical builds include on-hit effects and high amounts of sustain
The problem I see with this, lets use 
for an example and before we even begin. I realize that there are champs in this game that you have to focus that are considered hyper-carries or they're just naturally strong enough to carry matches and require counter play, focus, and counter building with items (or just banning them in general). I get that. I understand how that works, and I'm not complaining about losing to Bruisers because our teams are still winning pretty consistently.
No the Problem I have is the concept in general. I don't believe that even a semi-balanced game should have Champions on that high of the spectrum of power or potential power. I understand the need for DPS oriented champs like ADC's and Mid-laners, but allowing a champ to have the best of both worlds is un-balanced by very nature.
Giving a champ: mobility, CC, damage, sustain, initiate, Health, armor, magic resist, etc. Giving a champ all of these strengths and then 4 other team members to support and power up their carry. You create a un-balanced game (Lets be honest League aint balanced in general) This goes for other champ types as well. An ADC who can build more health, armor, and MR, but can still do high loads of damage is also broken or un-balanced. Or an Mid-laner, etc.
Allowing the best of both worlds defeats the purpose and balance of the game.
Balancing in general is poor right now, there are dozens and dozens of champs that are, "Off meta" and just don't have nearly the same impact on the game as other champs do which makes no sense, I understand how it happens but instead of making new champs, and making nice looking art; we should instead of much more focus on balancing and making old champs more viable.
