Riot's handling of tanks in general dug themselve a deep hole about their use of "counterplay" term
We look at the balance changes that had to happen to tanks these past patches after the tank update. So many have forced changes specifically to their damage output because they were competing with carry champs for damage output while being inherently tanky and building full tank. Galio was the nail in the coffin about being allowed to hide behind the excuse of considering counterplay.
Now lets segway to evelynn, who has very distinct issues that riot is refusing to address behind the excuse that the counterplay wouldn't be there.
