Some combinations of classes just shouldn't mix.
Let's face it, there should never be an ADC that had the stats of both an ADC and a tank, even if they sacrifice some damage. When we do that, we end up with
, who admittedly, is a bit more bearable due to him transforming into melee to be a tank.
Of course tanks will still do damage (In most cases), but they shouldn't have such a steady output of damage while being able to sustain burst as a tank does (Or should do, things are kinda wonky right now if you aren't
or
)
Another combination I can think of would be a support assassin, who would bring utility and peel to the table while also having ludicrous damage. The first champion that comes to mind when I think of that is
.
I'm not saying that Ekko is a support, but a better term would be a utility assassin. I remember in Riot's post on the Fiora rework how, when she was behind, she was useless, and so they wanted to make sure that even when behind she could be relevant. I assume that's what they were going for with Ekko, however, the thing with assassins is that they are SUPPOSED to be somewhat useless, perhaps having to rely on splitpushing if they get behind. Now, the healthiness of that is for a completely different thread itself, but as it stands, that is the way that assassins should be.
A third combination I can think of would be a Tank assassin. This one should be self explanatory. Unless they are building full damage, tanks shouldn't be able to BURST targets. First person that comes to mind when I think of this is
, who I don't exactly consider healthy, but he's also very strong in this meta, so perhaps I am a bit biased.
Rammus forces targets to attack him while having a built-in thornmail. The only difference with this is that, in theory, the ADC could avoid this by buying
and having the ADC's team peel for the ADC while the APC damages rammus as much as they can.
In the end, some combinations just shouldn't exist. They will, in almost all cases, be unhealthy for the game and will ruin it's future.
PS: I'm not hating on any of these champions, nor begging for their deletion. I'm just saying that classes like them shouldn't be created in the future.
