Tank Rant
I have a group of friends I play league with casually every day, so we encourage each other to play some ranked for improvement. I know every game is not winnable, and I personally strive forward, even when there looks like there is no hope because of games like this:

Where I stole a baron as Rakan literally fills you or your team up with pride, but how many miracles are gonna be pulled like this?
The biggest problem with the game right now, I believe, is the crazy amounts of damage tanks are doing. So to keep my team alive in team fights, I'll rush
followed by,
and maybe a
to toss onto my adc. But this gets exhausted. When I don't have enough time to rush these items because of a failed laning phase, the game is about to hit the 15-20 minute mark and the first surrender vote is thrown up.
By then, first tower is probably already down, first blood is gone, drake is down, possible rift herald has taken a tower or two. Zed has probably killed your team mates at least once, maybe twice, and your team is being counter jungled.
If they have 2 tanks or sometimes even 3 composed of any of the following like:
The game has seriously decreased in likelihood that you'll be winning it even from champ select. Why? Because despite the tank making a mistake, it's much more difficult to risk your life to punish said tank when they're doing ABSURD amounts of damage. I'm not saying let's nerf the entire class to the ground, that would be ridiculous but there has to be some sort of boundary?
I'm just trying to express why I'm a little exhausted with league right now, tanks. Just tanks. Idk I'm just late night ranting because I've had enough with the stupid amounts of damage they're doing. it's seriously not healthy for the state of the game.
What do you guys think? Let's keep it civil ^.^
