Its [EDITED BY MODERATION] that we can't have real tank items/stats.

Can we please have a tank item overhaul already? Its been too many seasons of armor pen this, armor pen that. Mage item rework, adc item rework, juggernaut item changes... but when is it time for us to get gold efficient, slot efficient tank items that give actual durability so that we don't die in 1-2 seconds. I'm tired of either playing hyper damage champions or just getting [Edited by Moderation]/destroyed. Come on give us an actual strategy game that isn't first hit wins.

Delayed damage isn't counter play, if we have no way to remove the damage that is about to hit us. You even squash strategies like zzrot, banner, and etc for "flashier gameplay"

I just want the same gameplay that made this game popular, semi-balanced defense to offence items, with strategic diversity, while playing a champion how I want to (which was only sometimes full damage).

That moment when a Graves is tankier than you with item 3812 item 3046 item 3156 and face-tank people while getting 600hp per AA. Better give true damage to everyone and then add a counterplay to true damage (like I wouldn't even be surprised if they added true armor lmao) and then add a counterplay to the true damage counterplay and then another counterplay and then blah blah blah. Just look at Akali 's rework ,this is exactly the state of this game, adding counterplay to the only real counterplay of stealth in the entire game

sure as long as tank builds item costs are increased and tank items get more interesting components, and we remove attack debuffs since those are unfun to play against.

And make tanks not worth picking as frontliners because they´ll lack tankiness due to their items being expensive. There´s a reason why tank items are cheap.

So is facing a Conqueror user as a tank and getting shit on early, mid and late game because instead of giving Bruisers the option to go BC for armor shredding by buffing it a bit and making it melee only, no, they make a keystone that not only cucks AP bruisers real hard by giving just AD, but also has no place in the game in its current iteration and made an entire class of champions vanish from SoloQ top lane.

tanks would still be worth it as frontliners, they'd just require the same gold economy as any other top laner instead of having cheaper items which means you can funnel more into your ADC

Right now, no one is taking Conqueror and most meta top laners are Grasp or Comet users. Cleaver isn't a strong item right now and Cleaver bruisers aren't very good.

AP bruisers weren't viable before Conqueror.
