That feel when you're 3-0 mid, then a leona roams mid lane having a relic, tabi and sightstone

And she 80-0's you after hitting 1 spell (e) and facerolling the rest of her kit + ignite, killing while hard CCing you for the whole duration, why is a tank with naut levels of CC doing this much damage by herself again?

Playing melee vs leona? In team fights Have fun not being able to play the game if she decides you dont get to play the game.

Im glad a champion with this much "gameplay" got overbuffed into the heavens, please send her back into the dumpster, give me back the janna meta over this.

Taric does an absurd amount of damage as well.

I'd be happy with Leona and Taric being dumpstered until they are fair to play against.

Aftershock makes them more a less invincible from the % resistances when they proc it

Every ranked game I play has Leona and either Taric or Blitzcrank banned by me and my duo.

Blitzcrank - Misses Q? He's useless Thresh - Misses Q? He's just missed the setup to his combo? Punish his ass Alistar - Useless if he misses his combo.

Reasons they are OP -

Introduction of Aftershock. When this procs they are more a less invincible in lane from the % resistances they get from it plus the % resistances modifiers they have in their kits (Leona W, Taric W)
The base armor buff they received was insane.
Lower MR levels across the board

The reason aftershock is there is as a bandaid fix to all the dmg.

It helps guarantee that tanks actually survive, especially squishy support tanks.

Just lower dmg across the board first, if you get rid of the tankiness from aftershock, you're just going to have useless tank supports that die way too easily which are overshadowed by wardens/enchanters who just spamshield/heal

I'm not asking for Aftershock to be removed.

I'm asking for the % resistances or the base armor buff they received to take a reasonable hit.

You can't possibly say 127 armor at level 3 is even remotely fair.

Most tanks don't get that kind of armor until their first tank item.

Yeah, I had a game recently where the Enemy leona solo killed my Ally twitch at level 3, and then again at level 17.

Make it weaker early game then, but not overall

Yeah indeed.

Make it scale up like Ardent Censer's on hit damage.

Weaker in lower levels but evens out around mid-late game levels.

i'd say the main problem with taric is that all abilities that scale have some tank stat scaling like his heal scales with max hp and his damage scales with armor and so does his w buff
