Counter to true dmg? or conquerors?

True damage used to be scarce, but now conquerors / skirmishers/ master yi wuju style. Its no wonder why tanks are becoming more and more useless. With itemization added with what i listed above item 3153 item 3071 item 3036 item 3033 etc. how are you supposed to counter champs like yi, tryndamere, and other adcs . there used to be a late game that took time to scale into, but with conquerors its nearly impossible to trade with yi or tryndamere. True dmg wouldnt be as OP if it were on abilities with a decent cd or item actives with decent cooldowns, but its used on champs that already have consistent attack spd rates with no down side. Make it so conquerors users take more dmg when its active similar to double edged sword mastery back in the day or something. In season 8 what counters these champs? MasterYi Tryndamere {{champion:24} etc. even cc isnt useful withitem 3139 right now they have an answer to everything. We need like true armor/shields or something somewhere to better deal with these things. Any tips? http://www.monologuedb.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Robert-Downey-Jr.-Kirk-Lazarus-Tropic-Thunder.jpg

Health counters true damage.

Health counters true damage.

True damage in itself isn't problematic, but a lot of champs with it are (% health true damage Vayne )

Stuff like yi is hard because yea, build health does counter his true damage, but if you build health you're still weak to bloodrazor/BoTrk, if you go for armor then you didn't build for true damage and that kills you. That's a yi problem mainly, but he's still this "punished by groups" champ that often riot forgets what his power budget is because even when he's as strong as this he underpreforms due to how the game trends.

True damge is by far one of the dumbest concepts in a pvp game. There comes a time when do we really need a counter to everything.

Tanks are supposed to take time to kill but true damage just says nah screw there defences ima do damage anyway. And it seems that riot has added more and more with a rune and red buff.

The only true damage im really fine with is mountain drake and thats such an easier change to normal damages its not even funny.
