I saw a trend in the updates.

Juggernaut update: Every champions broken

Marksman update: majority of champions broken

Mage update: a few champions broken

Assassin update: everyone but rengar khazix trashed

fighter update: ?

Well yeah most fighters are melee and riot has a huge fuck you mentality when it comes to melee which is why most of the assassins got shit on too. khazix and rengar will most likely get dumpstered when riot realizes they missed 2.

Irelia won't be touched. Luckily Vi and Diana are in a pretty good spot. The other 3 champs you listed are getting gutted though.

irelia is getting her own rework outside of a class update.

Still hoping for a vanguard update.

Dear riot,

Please rework your rework team just like they've "reworked" every champion we used to love.

juggernauts weren't even an issue besides Mordekaiser Skarner. Darius abused people because they weren't respecting his new Q and passive and Garen didn't even get to see pro play once. all 4 of these champions have been steadily getting worse with every patch as other shit comes up to kill them.

not to mention most of their items were more broken on other champions than the ones that were supposed to enjoy them, and got them nerfed for the juggernauts. for some reason they turned item 3071 into an item that everyone wants to buy, when it used to be exclusive for juggernauts back when it was low AD and higher in health. item 3053 remains a mediocre pick and item 3748 was better on melee DPS than juggernauts. they've done a good job of indirectly gutting the juggernauts as a whole with constant nerfs to their items because other champions (read: ranged) were stupid with them.

Morde 100% pick ban worlds 2015 mordekaiser garen darius dominate solo queue win rate until nerfed.

not saying they are still broken, but they were.

except for Mordekaiser Skarner

darius was not that bad. his counters were; he happened to get reworked into a meta that greatly favored him, so naturally, he dominated.

Garen was a good pick at best and he's subpar now.

there was only 4 champions in that update.

Mordekaiser was completely broken, Darius Garen Skarner top pick until nerfs hit them.

that is 1/4 broken, 3/4 top picks.

How was that not an issue?

Mordekaiser Skarner were broken; mord was 100% pick/ban in competitive and Skarner reached close to or over 70% winrate in soloQ

Darius was overwhelming specifically because he was reworked to fight tanks during a tank meta. It's no wonder he was so strong, but his stats still never reached what Mord and Skarner achieved. He would have averaged out naturally, given the buffs to ranged top laners that has put them back in the meta + the nerfs to his items making him much less tanky. Now he's back to not getting picked in high level play, despite being by far the healthiest juggernaut

Garen was easily the weakest of the 4, barring the kneecappings mord and skarner got. He was at his strongest when his Villain passive was bugged and the true damage scaled with HIS HP instead of the target's, giving him disproportionately high damage. As soon as that was fixed, Garen's usefulness dropped like a rock, and he continues to be a shittier version of Darius.

No one knew how to hit Darius q at the time but his passive was straight broken and still is. Garen has villians to bed and does taric things with them. Illaoi was released with the update and 5v1 everyone
