Arguably the most broken champion in the game is melee and it takes an overloaded ass kit that's completely overturned with everything, numbers, versatility and just random stuff. What does that say about this game that has become so damn anti melee? If that's what it takes for melee to be consistently good, there's a problem.
Sooko6 votesThe most broken champion in the game is Azir. Nobody else has created so many bugs...
Xx420n0sc0p3sxX2 votesI get it!
redniwediS5 votesMelee is difficult at the moment, but that doesn't mean it's impossible to be consistently good. Don't jump on that bandwagon.
The Chin3 votesfizz akali and zed are melee, they're doing fine
HateDaddy1 votesfizz akali and zed are melee, they're doing fine
assassins are typically the one exception because they almost always have absurd mobility on top of assassination potential. That's great for them but I wish playing an immobile tank wasn't a death sentence in this game. Lee Sin can be a much better tank late game because of how easy it is for him to apply his disruption and how hard it is to outplay him.

All great champs, all melee, not assassins.
ULTRAF0RCE1 votesDo you count 
an assassin since she isn't you know, also there is mundo who is always in a weird kind of in the meta never being completely useless but he is also melee
Leti the Yeti2 votesArent Fizz and Akali broken too and everyone just hates Zed?

I think Akali might be too strong, but the rest only seem broken when they're fed... Just like 90% of champs.
Leti the Yeti1 votesWell, they get banned all the time down here for reasons you know Akali snowballs so hard and so quick, as long as she can burst down target and target, she has like a million gap closers, You gotta carry pink wards at all times cuz that shroud is UUUGHHH Fizz and Zed just does absurd damage and will do just fine even after going 0/5 in lane and wont take long to become monsters They dont need to be Fed, theyre all ready pretty good at killing people and not dying
Khristophoros1 votesIt's the mobility. Kassadin is another example.
Melee champions can only survive with mobility because defense is so nerfed and % penetration is a thing.
