While everyone is talking about AD being strong...

Tanks have 14 positions in top 30 winrate. And I don't even count support tanks. Am I missing something or it is tanks who need tuning, not ad (except obvious cases like Yasuo, Graves...)?

Shhhhh! What are you doing!? Why are you drawing attention to them? Rammus and Zac are gods again. It's been so long! Don't ruin this for me!

Seriously, though, anyone who theorycrafted tanks on this patch should've seen it coming:

  • Buffs to IBG
  • Less damage in offensive masteries (aka, 21/9/0 builds not being vastly superior to 21 in defense)
  • Armor is stronger with the change to bonus benetration
  • ADCs have less damage on a balanced build
  • Bond of Stone is strong even when on your own
  • All items got more expensive, with tank items being hit the least. The price/gold efficiency changes on AD items were just masked by the scope of their changes
  • Tenacity got nerfed, making tank's CC more impactful
