Meanwhile in EU LCS

Every game in VIT vs SPY match had Ornn and Sion as toplaners. Now they also picked them in FOX vs CG match (Cho was banned).

Conqueror was not enough to make bruisers viable in competitive, in fact tanks are always going to be broken while riot keeps endorsing this boring 5 man deathball playstyle, which makes the whole viable classes in the game tanks, supports and adcs.

The fact that they would have to make conqueror and black cleaver completely overpowered to make tanks not dominate competitive is very sad.

When are the tank class recieve a class rework to stop this kind of boring games? Tanks should be the worst early game class/1v1 so maybe theres a risk in stacking tanks on your team in competitive.

They were playing on patch 8.5. Conqueror was released in 8.6.

It doesnt matter, conqueror isnt strong enough to bring tanks out of their 3~4 year top lane throne in competitive.

They are going to try a few bruisers with it for a few weeks then instantly go back to tank vs tank every game (exactly what is happening on LCK which is on patch 8.6)

Don't bring up NA/EU LCS to prove your point when they don't have the keystone rune. Also, Camille destroyed Chogath and Ornn in today's games

Camille is the only bruiser that is played in competitive, and its because shes broken.

2 wrongs dont make a right.

"It doesn't matter" What. What kind of kush you been smoking homes. The performance of the rune may not seem good right now, but we haven't seen how pros can utilize it outside of the LCK (reminder, they are superior in terms of skill, so trying to bring up them using it compared to EU and NA means about nothing). I personally find the rune in a okay spot. Not too busted as preseason PTA, and not too weak as Phase Rush. You use it in certain situations and matchups. That was the point. Buff it too much, and people will find ways to get around the ranged weakness.

Wasnt Camille picked too and owned? Also Bruisers are being played in Jungle. Trundle, Olaf. And why would they pick Bruisers top? Who is gonna tank then? If they use early game fighters like Skarner, Olaf, Trundle.

No keystone will ever make up for tanks being able to build full tank and trade even with a class that has to build 1 or 2 offensive items first.
