Maybe ADCs have gotten out of control...

So we have gotten to the point were I can stop kiting and drain tank a Kassadin after taking all his load and walk off just fine. This didn't feel satisfying. I felt like I just cheated. I was six items but like... Common, really? This amount of life steal is ridiculous. I don't have a solution; I just want to see the comments lose their minds.

Ignore my shitty editing abilities

Late game hyper-carry vs mid-game no-cc mage-assassin while it's lategame and the engage was predictable. This is working as intended.

so Kass someone who if he doesn't kill you when he first engages he has to chase you down and wait for his CDs for him to do anything dying to a late game hyper carry in the late game who doesn't need to wait for CDs... Drain tank really doesn't mean much of anything here since he went in, was unable to burst you down and then he died instantly. What did you expect Kass to do afterwards? auto you to death?

Drain tank? He had everything else on cooldowns. You didn't drain tank him, you just tanked his burst. Then you simply killed him. All you did was simply lifesteal for 15% after he used literally everything.

Plus your fully built at that point in the game, im not surprised you killed him.

Do you know what drain tanking is? There was also nothing to kite, Kass is strictly an ability based champion so moving isn't beneficial other than to not let his low damage auto attacks hit you. Kass was behind on gold, you're basically saying adcs are op because an assassin that failed their burst lost, that's kind of the point. Kass would only win like that against a mage due to mages also being burst.

You're talking as if it was something like Yi or Tryn where you lived while not moving due to adcs being op.

~~What, did you expect Kass to kill a late game Jinx with his autos? OFC she's going to outheal your autos, that's not even where your damage comes from. If you don't have your cooldowns, don't use your ult offensively, it's on a <2 sec CD and you're full mana so you can even stack up its damage. If she chases, which she will only if she's an idiot, just ult again back onto her and use your abilities to kill her. ~~

EDIT: NVM, I looked at the clip wrong, you should made it longer so I could see what happened more clearly. You don't want to ult right NEXT to her as kass while not actually hitting her with it. Flank around her with it instead, you're full mana. then jump on her. That's why he didn't kill you, along with the fact that he didn't have void staff yet, and was building whoever knows what with that kindlegem.

But why is the adc so healthy that she can tank the burst of a late game mage assassin? Kass scales hard af. She should die instant taking his full combo to her face. The point is not that fact she can drain tank, but why didnt she die from the initial burst is much more of a reasonable quarry.
