Why do Ad champs get 3 MR with AD options, and AP champs get 1 armor with AP option?

AD with MR: , , - note I am only using full build options ... If you want to include on AS champs which are usually AD... or for same reason go on ahead...

AP with armor: ... if you really want to build it... which you likely won't unless your a support...

and lets not forget which is used more on champions that use AD than AP... even if it can be used by both cough

Seriously rito - can mages have more items that build armor AND ap - I mean there are 3-5 items ... throw on merc treds and its a set - of ad/as items that also give MR...

Because instantly deleted champs don't deal any damage.

Magic Resist per lvl is lower than Armor per lvl , Maximum possible AD is half of maximum possible AP If those are all the items they make them they will still probably get chunked in one spell rotation They don't have stuns in their kits nor the kind of range advantage mages enjoy They cannot safely put damage down on tanks but mages can

Don't forget AD champions are able to build item 3111 while item 3020 is almost necessary on AP champions to cut through MR, especially with all of the Edge of Nights.
