Season 6: Power Creep the Season
I hate that this season is quite literally the most power creep we have ever had in this game. And the game is showing it yet no one points at it. It doesn't matter if the power creep effected every single champ in the game. It is throwing it out of whack because it adds yet another layer to balance.
Masteries doubled if not tripled in power. AD itemization was thrown way out of balance with AP itemization (nerfs to AP combined with huge buffs to AD) which put AD at better values as well as more gold efficient. So the only way to deal with it is to abuse the Juggernaut update items to live and thrive because they were made for people to live to get in and do damage (which ironically is why Atma's was removed). And guess what happens when Juggernaut items are the counter to the current problems that every role is having. It creates the stupid meta golem build which wrecks everyone and even ADCs start to pick up the items.
For the most part even the ADC items alone show the massive power creep.

. There is one that is stupidly obviously better to the point where you are almost dumb to build
even if
10% CDR is thrown out the window. I mean ADCs now have stupid amounts of burst onto of insane DPS. See:
. Also let's just look at
. Who thought giving an ADC bruiser tools was a good idea? When
the most flexible ADC is out of the meta you know there is a problem with it.
