As much as I want tanks to be buffed...
I know it's not an easy task. First things first, tanks are not weak, statistically speaking. The tank items are not weak either, just remember that last ekko/yasuo that just seemed unkillabe, while killing you and all those you care about and shrugging off all the damage you managed to land on him. Thing is, true tanks just seem like they die too quickly to most tank players, and the damage creep of this season is the thing most players look at. What we need to remember is that, while other classes (marksman, juggernaut, mages) have been updated, the tanks got little past seasons. So, while the updates improved those aforementioned, it also raised the damage they do overall, making the game more volatile than before. To make things better, we need a vanguard/warden (preferably both) update to bring the love our tanks deserve. Meanwhile, I believe we tank players need to buid correctly and play smarter around the amount of armor and magic penetration that exists in the game; I've seen alot of players making full health builds and then shouting at the boards how tanks are underpowered/damage dealing champions are busted. There needs to be more of
resistance+health items and less of
pure health items in a tank build.
