Why riot buf all items except tanks and ap (buff ap and tank items)

Dani El Pezglobo··3 votes·526 views

i dont know why , but this season arrive we just saw how ap and tanks got nerfed all the time , while ad, as , letality and crit got buffed.

Feels kinda tiring when im idk ahri 3/0 and a zed 0/3 with a duskblade one shot me because letality is broken.

And even worst tanks , who cant endure any klind of lane because they have super weak early game.

So pls , buff tanks and ap , and nerf ad on general (riot: lets buff crit item so letality isnt an option , riot lets buff letality because no one use it , now an hyper carry one shot me item 3094 item 3087 one shot me , and ad caster (Jhin MissFortune) one shot me item 3147 , ye ty)

Y'all won't stop until we've got tanks on all 5 positions, won't you?

right now tanks are only viable on jungle, because they dont have to fight vs lane bullies. (expect 3 tanks that can actually lane) i dont want tanks on any position , but its pretty clear tanks items are bad, when sup items are better

I mean tanks also dominate support (Thresh, Braum, Tahm'Kench, Alistair etc. are all top tier) and some are strong top (Maokai, Cho, Sion, Shen) - although tanky fighters are probably stronger.

That means that tanks dominate two lanes and are the second strongest class in another lane. Plus Galio mid. So yeah, I think it's pretty clear that tanks are extremely strong right now.

Top lane-Gnar/Jayce Mid lane-Zed/Yasuo/Jhin Bot lane-The current abuser of lethality or Lucian/Cait Support-Lulu/Thresh Jungle-Zac/Gragas/Cho

And this 3 tank are the only tanks that see play ONLY in jungle and that because they are broken right now and everyone know it

Which mean that tanks in general need buffs

Mid - Yasuo is meh, Jhin is shit Bot - yeah knew it. You want tanks adc xd Support - Thresh was a tank and is now called a tanky "catcher" - yee still a tank in my books. Lulu is far from top tier, t hat's Braum/Kench Top - Mega Gnar is tank, Mini Gnar is "Unique Playstyle" - then we got Cho, Maokai, Shen etc.

Tank items don't really need buffs. Tanks have good enough early games if you're smart about it.

not at all , im not talking about a bruiser like renekton , im talking about pure tanks like nautilus, u literally cannot fight vs anything and ur wave cleear is poor at early , so u are pushed under tower when everyone can poke and bully u, im not saying dat tanks need more damage, he need the tools to be able to fight on early game

And I'm talking about tanks like Sion, Poppy, and Galio. Nautilus in general is just kinda weak because Riot doesn't know where they want him to be.

so 3 tanks are viable , all the rest suck so ahard u cant lane vs anything. dat doesnt mean tanks are ok on lane , only tanks with waveclear and cheap mana cost can affor the lane phase , thats what im asking , buff items or change mana cost to all tanks so they can fight about early push

If you really need waveclear, get sunfire. Yeah it's shorter ranged now, but it helps and you don't need to waste as much mana with it.

Outside of support tank items, Cinderhulk and Stoneplate tank items are really bad. You can't buff them though because of Stoneplate being a complete and utter overpowered piece of shit.

I stand by what I've been saying on this issue, Stoneplate should be removed, GA should be reverted back into a tank item and other tank items like Thornmail, Adaptive Helm, Sunfire, Rand's and DMP which fail to pull their own weight without Stoneplate should be buffed to a reasonable level.

"Cinderhulk and stoneplate are really bad" "Stoneplate being a complete and overpowered piece of shit"

Which one is it. Op or not. Also I think cinderhulk is actually being looked at for nerfs right now.

Try reading that again with a brain this time.

Ah I see. Think it could have been worded differently though. My bad

As far as I know, this patch is tank-meta based. Don't know what you're talking about.

This patch is. "oh shit duskblade is busted lets build lethality" and then "oh shit were all dying instantly to lethality, build tank since that counters lethality."

And then you realize that you one-shot everyone with Chogath while lethality champs deal no damage to you. Or you are a CC monster like Sejuani / Maokai.
