If the enemy team picks double ADC into my Rammus, my first thought shouldn't be 'oh shit'

Because I'm going to melt in 1-2 seconds once the game hits 15 minutes, even if I'm ahead.

This is absurd.

Double dps comp shouldn't threaten a tank? This isn't dota- you shouldn't be able to completely hard counter a large number of enemies because you chose to play a certain champ. He already has an edge on ADCs in ways other tanks do not, no need to make it autowin against 2.

Anyway, that game would have been a nightmare for them. All you would have needed was bramble vest, tabi, and health and you would have been immortal (at 15 minutes).

Tanks are mid game focused. ADCs are supposed to outscale tanks, its how its always been.

Due to their potent reach and DPS, marksmen are particularly strong against more durable opponents, namely fighters and tanks, but fall quickly to the burst damage of assassins and mages.

Last time I checked, 15 minutes isn't late game. That's "laning phase has just barely ended".

Not all tanks, rammus is notorious for his anti-adc scaling because his kit was specially designed around fucking ADCs but not doing much to magic damage dealers.

Thing is, you just build item 3153 and item 3036 and hes instantly very easy to deal with if you have your crit items. maybe even throw in another lifesteal item if theres room.

ADCs under very little circumstances should ever be able to deal with rammus. If they can itemize their way to beating him then the game is wrong.

This is misinformed. ADCs beat tanks, Tanks beat burst, burst beats adcs.

ADCs by nature WILL outscale rammus. This is how the game has always been.

(If ADCs couldnt deal with rammus, no one could, which would make him absurdly broken)

Youre misinformed, rammus is designed against fucking ADCs, ESPECIALLY late game. He was always considered a more mid-late game oriented champion. His early has always been trash.

Also, if ADCs cant deal with rammus, hes not broken, because most mages can deal with rammus, especially DPS mages, because rammus's kit punishes him for prioritizing MR over armor.

And ADCs are designed to fuck tanks. Rammus, like all tanks, is early-mid game focused. once ADCs get all their items, they do the most sustained damage in game. Rammus fucks ADCs in the mid game, then ADCs outscale him when they get their items.

In the ideal world and historically? No.

As of right now in the current meta? Yes.

If you're seriously that thick skulled then fine, I guess the conversation is over.

Tanks should have no problem setting up the kill. Now, you'll need something more top or jungle oriented to just win against ADCs alone. Tanks will be able to secure the kill almost guaranteed, especially Rammus because he can contribute so much damage to the target if they're ADC.

As opposed to what? If double ADC is threatening to you then what is non-threatening? What are you picking him in hopes of if that is your first thought?

AFilthyCaitMainSep 2, 20172 votes

Burst counters squishies, Tanks counter burst, DPS counters tanks.

HeresyHorusSep 2, 20172 votes

Burst counters squishies

No longer applies to ADCs ... item 3026 item 3812 item 3031 item 3046 item 3086 item 3035

DPS counters tanks

What DPS ? ... ADCs do BPS which counters everything

You should really take a step back after your games and not post anything for like an hour. If I look at your match history, every one of your posts are made after you play that champion and lose. http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-history/NA/374094
