I mean why should i as the mage have a way to defend myself from getting one shotted? Because that would make way too much sense.

You do have a way. It's called range and positioning.

Control wards still counter his ult.

By the time he is spotted onto a control ward, he will still catch up to you. even if you blow your flash, dash, heal, exhaust, shields.

oh look i one shot their mages the whole game as shaco, they probably just need to work on their positioning.

And if a mage isn't punished for poor positioning, what are they punished for?

They should be thats the whole point. But right now positioning doesnt matter. Im just going to use shaco as an example, because thats what i play. There is no builds, no wards, no positioning you can use as a mage/adc to prevent me from getting to you. And if i dont get to you in a team fight that is me playing bad in a team fight. That has nothing to do with the mage or adc.

Since i literally one shot you theres nothing you can do. Thats the whole problem. They nerfed all of the mages defensive items to the point where they are getting one shotted. From a shaco main it has to be me that messes up to not one shot the adc/mage.

So you're telling me that seeing you coming stops me from leaving the area before you get there?

Because a typical mage just needs less than 2 seconds to burst their target. ADs on the other hand need more than that -- the problem is that it's swung a little too much in favor of AD bursts right now but they'll fix it before mid season.

As a tank main, Cry me a river. I don't want to hear how your items got nerfed. Try having every other class build your items and get them nerfed because another class does better than you with said items.

item 3102 item 3065 item 3742 item 3053 item 3143 item 3156 item 3068 item 3083

All nerfed at one point because another class "used them better"

Oh please classes can use other items just as well because it works for them. Itemization is meant to be shared by classes and it provides a lot of valued counter building to many things.

Also tanks are still useful they can't 1v5 and survive. There was no time where a tank could handle 5 people late game.

This is where the whole sheep mentality and the ability to not think comes in. Just because its different doesnt mean its bad. Funny how in the next game the talon went off against jax. But stay dumb

Look guys I made this submarine out of stale bread

You might think that's a stupid idea, but you're just sheep

Well, a mage still has zhonya, whoch saves you from pretty much anything, while adcs got taken everything away a year ago. Maw is even worthless now, qss is good in maybe 1 out of 20 situations.

HeresyHorusFeb 21, 20171 votes

thing is mages must choose between item 3165 for offense ( MEH unless u have many spells with very high ratios ) and item 3157 / item 3116 for defence ( even more MEH items ).

while assassins or adc mids can rush item 3814 for strong offense and strong defense and invalidate u no matter what u choose to rush.

and its just keep getting better and better when u build in this order item 3155 item 3044 item 3142 item 3071 .... and take scaling HP + scaling MR runes ....
