Will the tank meta ever end?

The glory days of LoL were in season 2-4, when you could pick assassins and actually assassinate people. Now every team has a full-tank top laner, full-tank jungler, and full-tank support that does more damage than the adc.

I feel bad for those who started playing after season 5.

Take me back to when wukong and eve weren't terrible picks :'(

Half of the most picked supports are squishy. [top 10] Almost half of the popular top laners are squishy or partially squishy, with the second half being mostly bruiser with only 2 being tanks. [top 10] Only 3 of the 10 common junglers are tanks, and Lee Sin is still the most picked by a wide margin. Kha is actually at 4th even at plat+ and still 4th diamond+ despite assassins being "bad" and even Yi is top 10/20. Then mid lane has 0 tanks picked often. ADC has 0 tanks picked often.

Even if support and jungle was dominated by tanks you still have 3 squishy targets to kill.

On the subject of Eve, even at D+ she's almost in the top 10 most picked junglers and banned with over 51% wr. I guess since she's not at 60% she's terrible.

When kog will stop having 3k hp+100 armor/mr i guess the tank meta will end since he won't be picked anymore

?? they're no meta where Wukong is a strong pick. Don't ask yourself why only otp Wu play him.
