It's important for game health that assassins need to hit skillshots then wait 2 seconds for a kill

Meanwhile, every other build pure damage champion without this "mark them and pop it" bullshit kills squishies in ~1 second. Potentially with only point and clicks

Talon needs to get 3 stacks from abilities, auto attack, THEN they bleed for 2 seconds making for ~4 second assassinations. Twitch needs to auto 3 times, coming out of camo so you have no idea whats going on too

Playing devil's advocate, Jayce here doesn't have a way to escape while assassins have the ability to go in and go out. Fighters can build pure damage but it's not always the best and assassins can also build tanky (i.e. tank ekko and fizz). So yeah, just a non-affiliated counter argument.

Escaping is similar to disengage abilities like his knockback. He doesn't get as close to his turret with it, but it still puts a gap between him and an enemy.

Plus plenty of fighters do have legit escapes MonkeyKing LeeSin Camille and if they build pure damage, they are in effect assassins

Also tank builds on assassins are basically dead and gone. Riot has tweaked the worst offenders so much that they are just worse than real tanks. Which is a good thing, but just doesn't agree with your point. Tank ekko and fizz have been terrible ever since the reduction/removal of their flat %missing hp damage, and lower base damage / higher ap ratio tweaks
