If adc get +24% dmg from runes, +20% from 1 item, and 250% from crits. How do Tanks tank?

The shred nowdays is unreal. I get that adc need to deal dmg. But now the adc alone shreds the engaging tank. The rest of the team doesn't even need to react. They can just dive the opposing team now their frontline went in. This is new. Before, you had to actually focus the tank. Or they may do something. Possibly even some dmg. Now they just die.

Press the attack +12% and a dmg burst Ok, cut down is +10% admittedly, so thats 22% from runes now that i look it up. item 3036 gives +20% item 3031 makes crits do 250%

I've played Tanks since season 3. Never have I felt less tanky, and less relevant. Note, outliers like a fed Cho don't count.

And all this dmg pump is even before armor shred and such.

ADCs are much weaker now to magic damage with the removal of all MR runes that would be viable for them to use.

A neat note. But I´m not sure about your games. But I am noting that by the time toplane is halfway through each others tower, 1-2-1 and 2-2-0 after a fight or two and some jungers visiting, the adc(or zed/kat) is 15/2/4 and knocking on the inhib tower. And either draintanking anything you throw at them because they are 2 items up, or they just use their ninja ways to bolt. Because you can't chase out of position because they will in fact nuke you.

by doing retarded dmg and killing the rest of the team leaving the adc alone. Have you seen Ornn? i feel i do more dmg as an Ornn rather a Darius

You need at least 3-4 CC tanks to really have a tanky team at this point lol If there's only one then the enemy team will have a very easy time blowing up your main tank. Its way too much damage for one tank to deal with.
