Is it just me, or are bruisers really strong?

I hate dealing with WW and Nasus (and whatnot). They CC me for hours & melt me down as a squishy all whilst being reay tanky.

"Bruiser" covers three modern day classes (Juggernaut, Diver, and Skirmisher), and doesn't really cover any of them particularly well. Warwick and Nasus have a lot of differences, and are nothing like champions like Riven, yet they all are under the term "bruiser".

Some champs covered by that term are strong, others are weak, and considering just how many champions fit under that term it's not hard to see why.

Nasus isn't a bruiser. Nasus is a juggernaut.

I don't even know how to classify Warwick, but he's not....really a bruiser either. More of a fighter/assassin hybrid, I guess?

Bruiser is a super wide term. As redniwediS said: Riven, Warwick, and Nasus are all bruisers, but they're nothing alike.

Although many bruisers are strong right now, they're not universally strong, and you need to specify which class you mean when you say bruiser, because, with the exception of Camille, Warwick, and Shyvana, skirmishers are kinda shitty right now (Idk, is WW a skirmisher? It seems like he is, but I'm not certain...), and all three are good because of runes.
