Riot fucked up with the Tank Meta
So I know it sounds a little bit to harsh but it is my honest opinion. In this season games are not fun anymore, you find yourself facing this beasts that are not only capable of taking big chunks of damage without even caring but actually deal a lot of damage in return. This for example is a recent game I've had:
I simply don't think it is balanced to have an extremely tanky champion that can destroy your flimsy adc or apc without them being able to respond at all. There is little to no counterplay to this. In here you can as a Garen, dealing more damage than there own adc and apc (This one being Ekko) Both of them not being behind at all nor Garen being much far ahead. Let me emphasis this last point, a Garen did more damage than a fed Ekko, that had much more gold than he did, and ashe while being literally unkillable. This same thing applies to their Shyvana which could one shot you with challenging smite and q and couldn't be killed either.
Simply wanting to post my opinion, I know that there is always going to be a predominant group in each season depending in the Meta. But back in the assassin meta, which many people complained about, atleast assassins could be killed relatively easily if they made a small mistake while currently in this meta tanks can fulfill the assassin role blowing up the enemies squishies but this time being almost unstoppable. In my opinion each role must fulfill there own objectives, tanks must be tanky but leave the damage to the damage dealers like marksman(dps) and assassins(burst), bruisers or fighters should deal a fair amount of damage and be a little bit tanky but nothing in excess. This meta has forgotten to differentiate between roles and no longer feels balanced nor fun.
You can call me noob or bad ,or whatever you want that makes you feel better, for not being able to cope with this but I simply don't think the current meta is a good approach for the game overall.
and
exist right?
Also Shyvana wasn't building tank, she was fighter, look at her build. Also you were playing Ezreal which is probably worst ADC to use against tanks.
As for Garen's damage, he was in middle of the fights most of the time, so he dealt damage with his E to 3+ champions, he also had a black cleaver which shred your armors and well he was fed.
