1 rune ruined all my counterpicks

Rammus is no longer a counter to Tryndamere Can't counter Irelia with Chogath anymore The absolute staple counter to Darius was Malphite but this rune made that a stomp lane in Darius' favor

The toxic rune in question is... CONQUEROR

In champ select I saw a full AD enemy team and instantly knew I could tank carry. Then my death report read 69% true damage.

Top is officially an anti-tank lane, it'll be a chaotic lane of fighting damage with damage now. Thank you, RIOT. Proud of you guys.

Malphite stomping Darius are you out of your mind?!

First of all, I don't even know why you think a tank should be winning laning phase against a bruiser.

Have you played tanks in the earlier days of league? You know how their laning phase was?

About as weak as current GP or even weaker (without having a spammable ranged spell keep in mind).

They would literally sit back, do nothing and hope to get 5 cs/min (kind of like Nasus back then)

And you know why they did that? Because they scale GODLY into teamfights. They are propably the best teamfighting class there is (guess why you see 4 tanks per game in pro-games)

So now you come here and in all seriousness tell me that they should be auto-winning the laning phase AND have their ridicolous scaling?

Are you working at Riots balance team by any chance?

If anything, you need to actually nerf tanks even more and I'm not talking about +0.25 seconds or - 5 base HP nerf, no I'm talking about upping their mana costs, uppin their cd's in early levels, reducing their base stats in early levels, nerfing the tank runes and nerfing their base damage and upping their ratios.

That MIGHT fix tanks but Riot has a hard on for braindead tanks so they are going to stay god-tier.

I'm glad to see tanks being pushed out of top lane. Top lane is a place for bruisers and fighters, I prefer Urgot Darius is 100% cancer tho
