Toplane frustration.
So I'm a toplane juggernaut main, and my pool mainly consists of champs such as Darius, illaoi, Yorick, etc. The main shtick with Juggernauts is that they sacrifice mobility for zoning power, heavy sustain, and dueling potential. Such juggernauts can be really strong in 2v1s....until the damage creep meta strolled in. Because of this, divers are usually far stronger than juggernauts, as their damage is quite similar now. As such, Juggernauts are in a really bad spot right now, but it isn't impossible. We just have to play super passive in lane, and wait it out until mid/late game. Early game cheese strats don't work as well now, so we make do.
However, this is a team game. Even if I play passive, my team mates will most certainly not, and thus, they will lose trades by the slightest sliver. They take that slight sliver as hope, and keep losing trades, until the enemy is ahead by both cs and kills, rendering them useless. Unless they're all melee, this is shit to deal with, as one of two scenarios play out.
- I get fed, but the enemy midlaner/botlane gets fed. As such, by the time my allies decide to play passive, its too late, and the enemy is now hardfocusing me. Since I'm a juggernaut, I have 0 dashes and escapes, so I get kited to death, until I get behind as well. If allies are super tilted, they will blame me not helping them early game, and that it was my fault they fed. We end up losing, enemies say "GGEZ". I might get reported at the end game queue for suggesting to play passive after their second death, as I was being "toxic".
- I do horrendously. I play passive, I give up CS, but still end up feeding. Jungler doesn't like ganking top because theres nothing to get toplane, and he " don't gank losing lanes". Enemy gets fed as well, and now we're all behind. The one ally who plays agro and has a good kda is super toxic to the team (usually the ally lucian). I suggest we play passive, and spread out to farm in all lanes/jungle, and grind it out to the late game. I'm told to "STFU, YOU'RE FEEDING. HOLY CRAP THIS IS YOUR FAULT". I am then flamed for all the team's faulty decisions, and everytime I slip up/die, I get question pinged. I am then reported at the end game queue for "Inting" and "being toxic".
If I were a backline main, then this whole "my team won't be passive when losing" issue wouldn't be problem. I could force them to be passive midgame by not grouping up, forcing them to farm till late game. However, being a juggernaut main forces me to be there if my team refuses to be passive, which in turn encourages them to force a fight.
I honestly wish change were to be made, but I think any buffs to juggernauts would be abused by some "hurr hurr juggernauts ahre opop" players. I want damage nerfs, but I doubt a nerf of that level would ever exist.
I don't know what to do about this, but it's been happening nearly every game, and I'm just frustrated.
are capable of actually dealing 3600 fucking damage in an aoe in 3 seconds. i wish this was a made up number, but its real. think about this garbage. a single ability is capable of dealing 1.5 times of most champions health bars in damage.

is a fucking monstrosity.
is just the latest addition to this bullshit with her lvl 16 damage being so overblown that she can burst straight through tanks with the true damage on her waves. the only reason why shes kept in check is her garbage early game that riot is bound to buff at some point.
