What if marksmen were removed from the game?

No more burst per second, no more towers and objectives being taken in 5 seconds, no more excessive mobility on ranged champions. Instead of marksmen going bot lane, there would be melee DPS champions like Yi, Yasuo and Tryndamere, or wave clear mages like Ryze, Ziggs and Lux coupled with a support. How do you think it would affect the meta?

It would be a tank and juggernaut fest. Who would kill them?

That's pretty much Dota 2, where every game is almost an hour.

If marksmen would be removed, this game would be dead for me, simply because they removed a whole bunch of really iconic and great champions. Caitlyn Jhin Jinx Twitch Kindred Graves

I don't care if people hate their gameplay, I love the character design of these champs and Riot would never delete my beloved Jinx.

My best ARAM games are those with no marksmen and me on a tank. Being almost unkillable and fighting all the time is actually really fun. But on SR, Brand would probably get Pick/Ban as he can melt down tanks, same as fighters that can take on tanks (Fiora, Trundle, Jax? Not a toplane player)
