current state of damage in lol

there is something i don't understand. why there are champions, that are extremely mobile, hard to catch (hard to kill, aka zhonyas) and still dealing tremendous amounts of damage, and why there are champions (all immobile tanks, garen, nasus and so on), who dont do damage (becouse it's impossible to reach backline of enemys with current amount of hard cc and slows), but can't even tank, as they die in less 1.5 second while having 6 pure tank items if could anyone explain me, why lol is becoming more and more offence-only oriented with almost every patch (since season 3 when runic bulwark was removed and tank items nerfed), while 6 tank items champions can't even stand still for 2 seconds, not even telling about doing any damage or disrupting enemies and this is how it looks at diamond/master/challenger tier, no idea how it is in lower elos

thanks for answer, becouse i can't find an answer why would you make immobile tanks so useless as are they now. mobile versions aka sejuani or gragas have cc at least, but immobile tanks have literally nothing

regards

edit: of course i'm talking about late game, early and mid game it's possible to survive for at least few seconds, but there is a massacre when damage dealers reach their items. i believe the problem is defensive items, it's quite easy to reach them as they are cheap, but they fall off really quickly as they aren't even close to be as powerful as late game offensive items, so they mean nothing with amounts of ap/ad/penetration that ap/ad champs get

yea...just had to play an aram as volibear - no chance to even get of 2autoattacks in a fight before you get focused down despite buying all defense. And with the next patch it will get even worse...there´s really no point in playing immobile tanks if you want to win a game. The reward for reaching sth. is dealing less dmg than any assassin would, while reaching someone is just soo much harder. Balancing is just incredible biased against thme because if they ever work players feel like they are indestructible - not acknowledging that they absolutly have to be semi immortal to ever work out in the first place.

Tbh, if anybody can kill a six defensive item Maokai/Alistair in 2 seconds even if the entire team is on them I'm impressed.

the problem with all of them is, they can't reach back line. even 1k stacks nasus will do nothing to 250 armor 4k hp frontine enemies, not even counting garen and the rest
