Some negative words about tank meta and why we need ranked team builder as soon as possible.
I see many posts how good tank meta is blah-blah-blah.
Tanks are different. We have Rammus who designed as AA champs killer, and Voli with his insane damage, etc. So before talking how tank meta is good - think, does really every tank is good now? If enemies took Sion, Voli and Leona, what my team can pick against them? Not much - enemies took most damagy tanks already.
So first minus of this meta: 1. Some tanks are better in current meta.
There is so many champions so most players don't have all of them. If enemies took most cheap and valuable tanks, my team may not have another tanks (our champs are just picked by enemies).
**2. Some players may not have tanks, or enemies took their tanks, so they have nothing to pick. **
Assassins meta was letting people to carry themselves - skilled player was able to snowball and carry whole (even unskilled) team. This was a bit broken, but that was kind of protection for skilled people from random (trolls, players bad on their positions etc). Now when one player's impact is much less for game, growing elo mostly depends on luck of getting better team, than personal skill. Some diamonds who main hard snowballing champions like Riven or Ahri still can feel comfortable themselves, but this leads to growing of boosting services popularity.
You can track the state of the balance by looking to MMR curves on Lolking.net. Good balance and matchmaking game should lead to the fact that good players will grow, bad fall, and medium staying on same place. All curves should be mostly straight then. Bad balance will look like zigzag lines with deep ups and downs. You can check your MMR curve and write you opinion.
What to do in situation, when you're first pick, and after picking any champion you found that your team is not going to pick tanks? Will you be able to stop enemies if they will pick tanks?
3. Much less depends from one person, and much more from 4 random guys, whoever they are.
However all this things can be fixed by teambuilder. Less random is better.
To this people who think that players will stop practice all roles: Riot said that even now most players are maining just 2 roles. So team builder won't change it too much.
