Your thoughts on juggernaut class in current meta?

It feels like they don't do their work properly in adc meta with bunch of shields and heals. What can you suggest to improve them? Do we even need to change anything about them?

Useless, kited to the death all the time. Needless to mention, Nasus 's got buffed and his win rate went from 48.04% to 48.21%, LMAO. The only Juggernaut that's meta right now is Chogath , and he's getting nerfed next patch.

You do good for laning phase which lasts for 20 minutes, than you become the enemy adc's personal lifesteal source as you struggle to do damage in teamfights due to perma cc. Oh and if they have Azir Braum Galio Gnar Heimerdinger Ivern Janna Leona Lulu Nautilus Sejuani TahmKench Thresh Zac you won't be able to fucking move and will be forced to splitpush.

Damn sounds so true. Well. There's actually something you can do about healing enemy adc - buy Thornmail.

Feels like the subclass is a collection of tanky champs that got dumpestered

I like how the class that is the most tank also does the most damage

Fair and balanced

I can't believe people still believe in this state. It's not like that for at least 1 year already.

I think the trick is finding their task in the team comp. What does a Juggernaut do for the teamcomp?

Given their damage to defense ratio, they could split push. But unless your Nasus, your not going to be taking turrets incredibly quickly.

Their pretty good in a teamfight due to their Tankyness, but they have trouble starting said fight because they lack CC, and are prone to being CCd themselves. (Unless your Olaf)

It's possible to have a Juggernaut supplement a Tank. It may also be possible to get the engage power from another member. (Ashe ult)

So that means they do not even have their own intended role. It's like fat damageless (compared with) Katarina that runs around waiting her team to do something.

Something like that.

I think their good at what they do. But what they do doesn't seem to have a real defined place in the meta. And the issue with that is, adding more stats to the champion would either not work, or completely break them.

The only exception to this are specific Juggernauts who can contribute due to their kits. (Nasus split push, or Olaf's dive power) And given that Juggernauts are pretty stat stick to begin with, our best option may be to look at the individual champions themselves.

This isn't fair In my opinion. Every class deserve some stable use for specific situation. Like assassins or aoe mages. Why not to give juggernauts some better role?
