Juggernaut update gave tanks alot of dmg, marksman update mostly changed caster carries, mage update gives mages soooo much cdr. How is it balanced, when champs like darius have more ad than lee jg? when playing lee building full ad and darius has steraks and cleaver, then full tank? as an ex adc main, caster champs have so many different build possibilities but aa champs basically(depending on the champ) only benefit from IE and crit items now. how can you kite out an enemy that has 40-45% cdr cause most tank and mage items give cdr? not to mention how melee champs are faster than ranged champs.

You're not alone I guarantee. I've been looking at the 3 recent updates (juggernaut, AD, and mage) and realizing just how much Marksmen got the short end of the stick. I was excited because I thought we'd get new build paths, with situational variety and options like the other updates! Nope. Take your IE, take one of the attack speed items that fits your playstyle and get outta here. No real significant changes or overhauls. But hey, most of Riot's balancing and rework teams just like to stab in the dark. Sometimes you get a mage update that actually adds some dynamic counterplay and options for playing as and against the changed champions...and other times you get juggernaut updates...where champions that are solid tanks get more reliable engage, more tankiness, and heck why not, throw in some more damage there too, why shouldn't a 3500 HP Darius be able to walk through two tanks and a support, Q and Ult your marksman?

well done upvote can't agree more im a jax main player. what you just explained is the reason Jax top has 47% winrate. Because he cant hold up with 45%cdr escape spam spell champs + the only way an aa champ makes sense is crit, since on hit's dont exist anymore for this class, like the good old botrk.

And Irelia works because because her W is a steroid by kit with TRUE dmg, doulbe dash healing ult insta stun etc. 100 times better jax similar kit. So she has an "op/good" onhit by kit, while jax 3rd aa only deals more dmg and can be avoided by good players unless you dive them what you will have to cause 45%cdr escape dashes spam/slows etc. if the enemy doesnt use it for farming like "noob".

45% cdr= No counterplay? right? unless the items which give 45% would be shit. right?

All % dmg has to be removed from the game, it makes tank to strong. % healing,%ofmax hp %of missing hp, but this is nothing new and will never happen anyway.

Only items should give % dmg and there should be very little.
