Why do we have to sit on two ruby crystals to get to Randuins?

The item is already a little shaky, but why did you take giants belt out?

Well, it can't have giant's belt because giant's belt gives 380 hp. Randuins as a whole gives 350 lol

Patch 7.9 just straight out nerfed the item. They removed 150 hp from it for 0 armor and buffed the crit reduction passive from 10% to 20%. This seems good, until you realize that the 150 hp loss outweighs this "buff".

they lowered all HP in all armor/tank items

and buffed the armor or passives...

while they also reduce the % of arm pen on black cleaver and last whisper items so effectively they got buffed and by having less HP in the items bork took a indirect nerf as well cuz the lower HP you have the less damage you take from BORK

yeah but considering tanks in general lost winrate percentages. i will assume that it was a nerf

hp is better than mr armor

It depends. If you have a bunch of HP and no AR or MR you're still gonna die in under a second if you get focused. 100 AR/MR means you take half as much damage, effectively doubling your HP.

Actually, the biggest problem for tanks was the big nerfs to item 3068 since it was such a great item that a lot of tanks built it first and used it to get through laning phase.... while now tanks don't really have any good laning items or any items to rush (except maybe the tanks who can use item 3025 if against AD champion or maybe item 3748 though it is rather expensive)

that is why i get item 3025 1st on Maokai in about all games , always vs a ad champ top

so much for that fake propaganda of there being a TANK META huh ?

people been crying over it on the boards for shit as long as i can remember and there never has been a tank meta... its a damage meta and always will be

Yeah... except sunfire which is nerfed hard and was the item most tanks relied on to get through lane... and now with it being so bad tanks don't really have any good lane items to go for making them a lot weaker in lane (and you can't really rely on allies dealing the damage while in lane unless you are a support)

Which is why the item changes was such a huge hit to tanks....

Though some tanks can use item 3025 or item 3748 which are decent items though their stats aren't great
