I don't understand why Vayne is considered a tank buster when ADCs already inherently counter tanks

%health damage is one thing, but every ADC already specializes in hyperscaling sustained damage that far outpaces any defensive stats. Maybe ADC itemization as a whole should be weakened, with sweeping buffs across the board for their actual kits, so they're picked more often for their individual strengths. This will actually make Vayne picked for her tank-busting qualities. All the ADCs would have their kits buffed

Except for and

Not a suggestion, just a thought. (And I'm not talking about increasing their base damages or anything. The whole of their strength numbers wise should come from items. I'm talking about making their kits more geared towards their strengths)

Not all adcs are sustained damage, you have people like graves, and maybe even ezreal, that struggle against tanks due to their burst. Your comment about Vayne being an uncommon pick isnt completely accurate, as she has the highest pick rate as of 5.17. She is also the one of the best late game scaling champs in the game. Actually with the "New" item 3143 she got an indirect buff, as she is one of the few adcs not crit reliant.

I never said she was an uncommon pick. I hate her personally LOL
