How is a champion that does almost as much damage as a crit from an ADC with 1 basic ability even remotely fair?

This is your best top laner in solo queue right now. This is one of the best top laners in pro play right now. How is it fair that she doesn't receive nerfs to her damage?

It's not "Tank" when you literally built 3 offensive items.

Trinity+Sterak's+RAVENOUS Hydra+Guardian Angel=Tank

Come on man this is far beyond Gameplay's usual stretching.

Note that this build has no MR and that taking dead mans plate on Camille is not optimal due to the fact that she already has ample mobility and dead mans slow means basically nothing to her. If you need more armor for survivability, taking a randuins or thornmail are far better as they work against ADCs, which the meta revolves about. However, her build is not cheap, the core build costs 10.5k not including boots, while building straight tank would save 300-1000 gold per item.(trinity 3733, Ravenous 3500, Steraks 3200) whist an average Boots are generally finished way before this so lets just say its gonna be ~11.6 gold before she hits a power spike of 1000 true damage. Lets also discount the fact that about 500-800 gold is on consumables and starting items, so perhaps up to 12.4K before that power spike. Their is no denying that this power spikes makes her one of, if not thee best duelist in the game. She is strong, no doubt, but take into account the fact that with the same amount of gold, an ADC can get a three core crit build, and start working on even more. At that point taking apart teams is not dream, its a reality.

I am sad to say as a top laner the fact that you have quintessentially less agency than an ADC over a game is very much a reality, albiet Camille is very strong because her absurd amount of tools and the fact that she can still survive it most match ups is not really as much as an issue as ADCs. The amount of tools she has makes her harder to answer, but not unstoppable, which is why she is picked and powerful in the moment. She has the flexibility that most top laners don't have the freedom to enjoy. She can be a lane bully, a effective roamer, a poke lane, a lane freezer, easily can CS under tower in bad situations, can turn fights with her stuns and untargetability, has one of the best catching potentials in the game with E flash mechanic, and does true damage that scales really well with a certain tanky build that works exponentially more well on her than anyone else who can abuse those items. But alas, she won't out do an ADC in the current given meta. If the meta was not so bot focused right now, I might even call myself for abusing a filthy freelo champion but I know all too well that if I cant cater to bot lane one way or another, in Camilles case, catch potential and roams, dives to isolate damage and mitigate attention to oneself if not killing the ADC atleast locking them in for another second so team can collapse, then you cant win the game. This is why illaoi is poor in higher elo, despite being one of the most infuriating lanes to play into as a toplaner, she is simply beat into a pulp by ADC's and the only hope she has is to grab an ADC's soul or to flash ult and remove the front line. The poor opponent has to suffer and not feed, and illaoi has to be hyper aggressive and hope her bot lane wins, because walking away from her champion equivalent tentacles is to easy for a kiting ADC.

Yes I basically main Camille and I agree with he fact that she is the best solely on the fact that she has more tools to deal with ADC than other top laners, however her 1v1 potential is hardly her issue, which is why I think removing damage from her q2 is hardly the right answer. If you wanna nerf someone for 1v1, which in this meta is laughable, better nerf Garen or Illaoi, maybe Riven, because winning against them in even conditions is darn difficult for any champion.

You're making it sound like ADCs that have an effective 0.5sec CD on their autos that deal more damage from range is fair. HmMmMm
