I bought this bacon cheddar flavoring for my popcorn and have used it on a lot of things but the popcorn.

Armor needs to be toned down so that pen can be toned down. For all the talk of negating 45% of armor armor negates a larger percentage of your Attack damage when left unchecked. The fact that a tank or fighter can null 60% or more of my ad if i have no pen but still kill me sounds kinda ridiculous right? It should since we think 45% is too much and that's only bonus. Nerf the armor and nerf the pen then we can work from there.

Yeah, and if they skip that BF sword for it early, then they're severely gimping their damage against anyone that doesn't have a lot of bonus armor (usually 3 or 4 out of the other 4 people on your team). So if they do build it [*edit: particularly, if they build it early on], then it means they're focusing you, and that's a success for you as a tank, just like if you're able to get all the enemy team to ult you in a team fight.

Also, I'd like to point out that it's actually probably only 70% of 45% of your bonus armor, because you're probably going to have full Black Cleaver stacks on you at any given time as an armor stacker :)
