I'd say tank/bruiser mage meta. thats just my opinion though.

I think it seems more balanced than its ever been. Mages are in a good spot, Tanks feel good but... ADC's can melt you more than every before.. so adc's feel fantastic. Now Assassins can still snowball and carry.. I mean I like this meta.

agreed they even threw in some support buffs.

if overall damage is taken down a notch id like the balance more.

Damage is too high imho in general.

thats what im saying...

ArakadiaJul 10, 20161 votes

And I'm agreeing! :D

sweet!

Of course theres a few outliers but I dont feel like theres any massive offenders. Zyra feels awful to play against and Malz feels like cancer but its relatively balanced.

I believe the mages have the upper hand right now. I played a game last night and it was against 5 mages. I played tank in top lane. I went full mr and it only took 2 to burst me down. I played Dr. Mundo. So his ult, health in the items and Mr, wasn't enough. If I have to select a pretty much lane win I would pick a mage. But I also think it has to be looked at in team comp, team communication and so on. So in theory there could be a steady balance.

Mages are pretty good atm but I think its a tank itemization meta.

The problem with league right is there is no meta, but for the wrong reason. There are champs that are stupid broken from each class that are choking out everything else.

Champs choking out diversity: Ekko Caitlyn Graves Irelia Darius Volibear Azir .

I'm sure there's more thanks to the stupid building everybody bruiser and automatically becoming broken. Let's not forget just how much damage even tanks do now thanks to masteries. Thank you Riot for giving everyone more damage because that is what we needed (sarcasm intended).

Early stomp, Snowball meta?

ArrowSingerJul 10, 20161 votes

It used to be that way s2,s3,s4.. now its not near that as much as it used to be.

ArakadiaJul 10, 20161 votes

Tank and Early game meta. Assassins are building tank, fighters cant survive for long if they dont build tank, and even mages are building lots of defensive and health items.

Overall tanks are doing lots of damage.

Targeted ability / AA meta.

I don't think tanks are tat good right now tbh. Otherwise the flat armor pen builds wouldn't be doin that well. More bruisers and assassins imo

ArrowSingerJul 10, 20161 votes

I think they are doing well if they are forcing others to build around them, their job is done. You play a huge tank when the other team does not go one of those builds its crazy. (volibear, sejuani, sion).

Volibear is a bruiser. Sejuani isn't picked that often and most people are building stuff like Mikaels on support nowadays anyway. Dunno too much since I never see her. Sion is the same way.

If I was gonna give you the strong champions this patch its the Triforce carries like Hec/Irelia or the flat armor pen builders like MF and Jhin. And then this is why stuff like Malzahar skyrockets up to 56% winrate because he counters high damage comps that don't have a real dedicated tank to deal with him.
