Because tanks are way underpowered against ranged players. They just kite you so no point in playing tanks anyway

Its the whole point...

You expect not to have some counters?

Your supposed to be big beefy disruptive meatshields..

Not something that can 1v1 a carry.

Simple, take tanks with cc or hard engage, I use Skarner with ghost so kiting wont do anything unless I in return get cc'ed, even if that does happen, I'm a tank I want to take dmg for the team.

I just played Malph in ARAM it was ugly. He runs in gets snared then all 5 destroy him

He is not a good meatshield cause ranged players just kite him

Because many seasons ago, durability items were so strong that Tanks couldn't be 1v1d unless you had one of the (at the time) few choices that shred HP. Basically if you weren't Vayne, you could never work through all of the bulk to kill them before they popped you dead. Even when out numbered many of them could just endure it and relentlessly pursue people with impunjity.

Durability items and kits got nerfed a lot over the years to make Tanks less unstoppable. Which led to the current astatus where they can still be tough to take down 1v1 but nowhere near as difficult as before, and they don't last for-fucking-ever under 5-man fire like they used to.

Am I dreaming? In which beautiful World are you living where tanks are underpowered? You have to see really bad players if you think tanks are not really powerful.
