I bring to you yet another example of "Tanks/Bruisers" being unbalanced

https://gyazo.com/bdf8c948b160278160fbdd5c0bc86a4a <----- Cho Gath's end game health bar(Also see his items above)

Let me start by once again stating that adc is a useless role outside of utility (cry in comments below :D) However true it is, that isn't relevant. My point to be made here is that in Season 7 and even the end of season 6, Tanks have dominated the game and shown that no amount of damage will ever be able to surpass that of a bruiser/tank build. Here we see an AP cho gath, who is also riding the 3k+ hp bar. In what universe is it balanced for a champion to have the capability to do 1000 TRUE DAMAGE while also being practically unkillable by an entire team. This is the same case for bruisers like Darius, Gnar, etc. It makes no logical sense for a tank to win a dual or team fight SOLELY because they cannot be killed, which gives them longer sustained damage, ultimately killing enemy squishy faster. Many past responses claim "Thats what an adc is for" or "Just don't fight the tank" but what about in the case of this game here in which the enemy adc did ABSOLUTELY nothing in fights, and ended in the "bruiser" Cho gath destroying everyone. In this case, you should focus the tank... but he cant die since he ALSO deals(again) 1000 FUCKN TRUE DAMAGE!! like this doesn't even begin to make sense to me at all and any significant comments on this would be greatly appreciated.

TL:DR - Cho Gath + other bruisers are unbelievable and base damage + items with both tank/damage stats should be gutted. There is no logical reason that a malphite ult with no ap should do as much damage as it does even at max rank. either build damage or build tank, dont allow both or else the game will turn into "who can split push towers faster because neither team can f*cking die".

Thank you to anyone willing to read this extensive complaint and constructive comments are appreciated.

PS. Don't comment ANYTHING about:

  1. ADC's shredding tanks
  2. Lethality
  3. Queuing premade so you have a decent team as to actually win lane against tanks and end before they hit power spike

cho is still pretty trash, he can't lane top at all because of Fiora Darius Jayce Camille and pretty much every other meta top laner, mid he has the same issue of completely one sided matchups against him, and his jungle is meh. As for bruisers in general the only one really in the meta since the end of season 6 is darius, and camille if she counts. The rest have been bullied out by jayce, or bull dosed by tanks. You site gnar even though he has a winrate that is abysmal(46.22 according to op.gg) and darius who was nerfed recently, important to note that neither of these champions are actual problems like maokai is they may be situationally strong but require large amounts of set up.

TLDR Cho is bad, bruisers are dead right now. your pointing to an issue affecting real tanks, but for some reason are using that to attack champs who really aren't an issue

Chogath :item 3111 item 1056 item 3027 item 3157 item 3001 You on Zed : item 3111 item 3142 item 3814 item 3134 item 1038

Not only is he reducing your MR for being near him, you have literally no bonus HP. OFC an end game, full AP cho'gath is going to rip you a new one for fighting him.

Edit: I derped, you were Kennen with item 3158 item 3116 item 3157 item 3151 item 1055 - So you had bonus AP, but your basic MR per level that was being reduced by Cho's aura.... yeah, you're going to get blown up with Zed coming in on top of you as well.
