silver 2-plat2(dropped to plat3 one tricking full tank poppy) but this is the end of the line with full tank poppy, tanks are just fodder atm, full tank 332 armour 230+ mr and i die in 1.22 seconds. this isn't fun anymore, unless you have boatloads of cc, there's no point playing a tank

Oh god I am so sick of these 'omg QQ tanks so weak' threads now. Seriously though I find it funny how you tank players on forums seem to die in 1-2 sec but in my games tanks are always tanking dmg from entire teams and still live for good 5+ seconds please tell me what do the dmg dealers in enemy team do to kill you _that _ fast because it never happens in my games.

Exactly, in gold the game is very different from plat as it is again in diamond. If a tanks' team is behind the the tank is going to get shredded really fast, if the tanks' team is ahead it may well be impossible to kill the tank. A few towers early can make a tank work, but if your team is behind then everyone better be building tanky and hiding under towers and waiting for mistakes because the enemy is going to be detonating someone otherwise.

I don't see how it is going to be any different in diamond or plat.. if a team is behind their tank will die faster obviously owing to enemy dmg dealers being fed/ahead and vice versa.

In gold you will often see lanes end 1/6 or 2/8 by the end of laning phase, in plat that number is likely 1/3 or 2/5 at the worst (them being camped by jungle and getting visited by mid). Usually this is true, in diamond the number becomes even smaller. As the feeding becomes lessened the difference in how far behind becomes less, and thus becoming tanky keeps you alive longer as you are moving up in rank simply due to teams feeding less hard.

Gold 4* and what does my rank has to do anything with tanks lol. Also I did not say they live forever , I just said they dont insta die in 1-2 sec like you said. Seriously if you want to argue or discuss at least elaborate your post instead of saying useless things like this.

I tried to expand on that a bit in my post, because as he pointed out, if the tank's team is ahead they are going to live forever it seems, if they are behind they will feel like warm butter.

I stopped playing Tanks, especially in support roles, purely because players in Bronze have no clue how to cap on engages

There's just no point to tanks as long as %pen is so ridiculously high.

1.2. Seconds huh? Either you're bullshitting or you're didnt actually build full tank. Armor pen is weaker this season, armor shredding is the same (but more common) but armor shredding isn't instant so, again - not 1.2 seconds.

Dont like tanks? Dont play them, maybe it's not your style

Yes i did die in 1.2 seconds, yes i did build full tanks I do enjoy tanks, i took 1 from silver 2 to plat 2 (3 now) it just seems a bit pointless when you're being bursted down in 1.2 seconds

Tanks are not tanky. Don't listen to these fucking morons who say, "mathematically, it's impossible." Because it's exactly what happens. The purpose of this season, as you will see in pro play, is to burst the enemy before they burst you.

not what i've seen. nobody could burst him, he had too much hp to be 1v1'ed. nothing we could do. why handicap myself playing a tank when i could play this and carry later

Actually, not really. He is really fucking strong at level 11 + item 3078 , but after that he kinda falls off because item 3036 nullifies his ultimate :P
