It appears Riot is trying to buff overall tankiness.
Whether the approach is right or not. People need to consider what they are doing...
Tanks buffed, delayed assassin damage, new tank items, stronger defensive options keep getting added for carries, pen going down, various damage amps nerfed a couple patches ago.
Whether you agree with their methods or not, you must admit this is exactly what we asked for. Longer fights, slower deaths, more tankiness overall, delayed damage. It may not be happening perfectly and may have rough edges. But it is making the game beefier overall.
What is more, they buffed Crit ADCs, nerfed lethality, gave AP a spellshield. They are trying to do what the community asked for. And I am excited for that, they have my credit and praise for walking this road, even if they fall off it here and there.
Anyway, no plans of this being a long extensive post. Just wanted to say that.
