You guys at riot really messed up the game when you made tanks do ever more damage. As if it wasn't already broken enough that a malphite or a maokai or a cho'gath could walk up to an adc and 2 shot them with only a ROA and the adc cant kill them each one has like 3k health. I hate playing mid lane and ADC right now because of champs like the ones above rushing a rod and still haveing twice as much health and still doing more damage than me. How is it fair for poor Lucian or any adc, to have to fight a champion who not only has shit tons of utility and CC but also a shit ton of health and a ridiculous amount of damage.

Riot adds an item that gives more health to jungle tanks. Suddenly top tanks deal more damage.

LMAO, How squishy are you to get 2 shot by Maokai?

Malphite? 2 shot? ult + e? really should consider taking some MR runes.

Cho'gath: OK you got me here, he can just WALK UP to you and you are dead ok fair, except he is soo easily kited. how did he exactly WALK UP to you to 2 shot you?

I watch the LCS to try and figure out why the LCS Maokai has stopped taking RoA over Righteous Glory.

The thing I noticed is that RoA gives AP Tanks, Dueling potential. Which does give them a fair amount of power in lane. But it needs time to scale and your actual tankyness is delayed. This is to say that while tanky, they are not yet super teamfighing gods with it, and can still be offed if focused. And considering that they will only have HP to start means that they are still Vulnerable to BotRK.

To OP's credit. The Tank Junglers do Highlight the Tanky Toplaners, because of the Double frontline. Speaking of Junglers, if your enemy top lane will build RoA, Gank then Early and Hard. Cause if you can delay their RoA, you can deny them for the rest of the game.

On your end, this probably means your positioning is bad, or you're not kiting properly. You should be behind your front line, dealing damage from the back. Not out in front where they can just jump on you and lock you down.

Or, if you just lost a teamfight and you're getting chased, you should be moving between auto attacks, slowing them down with things like item 3153 active, and, since you mentioned Lucian, throwing your W at them and then ulting backwards.

The other possibility is that your front line was not meat-shielding like they should have been, which means the other adc probably had item 3153 item 3035 which ate through the front line too fast and left you exposed to all the cc and damage.

So, what do you think about buffing tanks and not getting caught out as a solution to your problem?

It's like you never heard of bruisers before. They've been defining "tank everything you throw at them while murdering you instantly" for years now and a tank manages to whittle you down over 20 seconds and suddenly they need to be gutted.
