Is Riot aware of how strong Anti-Tank stats are right now?

when you see and other adcs building and instead of a regular adc build u see a problem

+ = Almost true damage. Doesn't even need another items. Dead Sejuani in 0.5 seconds.

You just asked this. And it will probably be mid season 7.

This has been said a million times, but you tank mains's skulls are as thick as your champion's armor and MR.

The only ArPen item that's actually good vs tanks is , flat pen items such as can't and won't shred tanks, end of story.

Early game, flat armor penetration from and are very strong, even against tanks which usually have at most 1 armor item (since a tank will usually start building some MR too). For example, if a tank builds as a first item (50 armor, 500 health), and a midlaner builds first item (45 armor), they'll pretty much take the same amount of raw damage from an AD champ building Youmuu's first (albiet the tank also has more HP).

By mid game, a champion that utilizes well can still do very good damage against a tank and allows other sources of AD without armor penetration to do increased damage

And by late game, and can cut a tank's armor down significantly in conjunction with the other armor penetration items from above.

I just think we need some kind of balancing to counter how plentiful % armor pen items are. Much like how Crit was nerfed with the mini-rework. Maybe we need something like that to where items cant just get rid of armor like it's paper with items that can easily be put into their build with little downsides.

%Health is now a standard on all champions and items :P

I just really wanna see youmuus get nerf, and those armor pen item abusers need to have their abilities' base dmg lowered with higher scaling.

what are tanks?

I dunno, While the Anti tanks stats might be a bit better than before, Those items have become a lot more niche. LW isn't even a core item on many ADC builds anymore. Building Anti Tank usually means giving up burst or dueling power against other ADCs.

Many late game carries will simply focus Crit instead, to maximize their damage against all targets. Though Tanks won't exactly melt in such conditions. This may be part of the reason why Tanky fighters are such a problem.

Good, tankiness ruins games.

when it comes to armor pen 40 armor pen what are these going to do vs 300 armor exactly?

- 45% bonus armor pen 45% of 200 is 90 2.25 times stronger that combo

you build 3 items to counter 800 gold item? wow...
