Ornn has one of the highest skill caps in the game and is in a gutted state due to his nerfs. He deals no damage and needs all his damage nerfs reverted, as well as his Unstoppable back.

Bullshit, just ignore his winrate and pickrate. You try to trade against him, just try. Also high skill cap? I bet a bronze 5 can press 4 buttons to kill a someone.

According to Riot, it's "to remain relevant in fights". I don't remember exactly where I read that before, but it was definitely a Red's post.

Meanwhile Camille Fiora Illaoi Jayce JarvanIV Zed Vayne Varus

And I'm sure I missed others. Makes no sense to me how they could give that reasoning with the number of champs who AREN'T tanks that have % health damage.

brand : a mage who needs to kill everything as he is giving defensive measure in his whole kit who can be cock blocked by items and side stepping

Cami : top laner who faces tanks and would just stat checked into low tier viability without it

firoa : see cami

illioi: see cami

jayce : see cami

j4 : was designed as a top laner but he isnt abusing it so its ok

zed : missing health damage isnt the same as max health damage

vayne : was designed as a tank killer

Varus: ok you got me on this one

Zed's basic attacks against targets below 50% maximum health deal 6 / 8 / 10% of target's maximum health as Ability power bonus magic damage.

I don't think of any of the "bruiser" champions listed would get stat checked without percent health damage. They all have sustain (minus Jayce) and poke to keep them relevant, even against tanks.

i swore zed was missing hp.

but are you kidding on the rest of that? item 3076 exists and so does item 3047 .

I entirely outdamaged fiora as maokai just because i bought bramble and bambi's. These guys straight up would lose the game past 20 mins when the lane has resistances. tanks are normally built with either their own sustain or ways with dealing with harassment as normally thats the main weakness of their early game

sion: shield scaling HP

cho: built in sustain

mundo : (shitty ) regen

garen: see mundo ( although mundo and garen are techincally juggernauts but for the sake of the arguement of stat checking im including them )

ornn: a shield thats spamable

Some tanks are made for countering other tanks. Other tanks are better at fighting squishies. Some are better at soaking damage, others better at chaining cc. Some are balanced, others are not. (hi mundo)

to fight tanks

if they target a low hp champ they do less damage.

what tank are you complaining about?

Rammus - hard cc, mobility, built-in thornmail Zac - spirit visage + passive = unkillable (don't even bring up mortal reminders) Cho-gath - Insane sustain, one shot squishy with r Poppy - max health dmg, can win most trades

See what these champs have in common, they either take grasp or aftershock. Broken keystones.

LMAO broken keystones

in the 5 roles in the game only 4 tanks appear close to the top

two in top lane SION ( who builds usually lethality ) and poppy sion is #1 , poppy is #14 two in bot lane as supports Alistar and Leona

you have to search outside the top 12 in jungle and pass leona in bot lane and pass poppy in top lane to find the next best tank in game.

its not a tank meta. it is a bruiser/damage assassin meta

No shit, you think bruisers are balanced? You are a fucking joke. Also, when did I say it's a tank meta? I'm just wondering why they can do so much damage.

cuz people like to do damage. hence the meta we have. when we had a tank meta ( in a lot / a mass majority of people thought was best/healthy meta) people cried i do no damage blah, i wanna get kills . and the game turned into the mortal kombat + halo fiesta we have now.

supports doing too much damage getting free wards so they get to sink more gold into damage, tp nerfs. ignite buffs. all runes have some sort of damage attached to them. offensive/damage out scales def stats.

true damage in runes and items plus champ kits. so we have the shitfest of a game we do this season. personally this is the meta/season i hate the most. i have played since end of season 2.

and as a tank main ( maokai otp) if i try going full defensive runes or items i flat out cant lane in the game anymore. i have better luck going conqueror primary and resolve 2ndary and building ap/ad bruiser instead of full tank. and even then he still is out matched by the fighters/bruisers and juggernauts

but yet you want to personally attack me and insult me over a comment over a video game. how grown up and mature of you.
