Please address the melee vs range matchups in top lane
Now I say top lane because the mid lane is assassins. They are designed to be weak against the mid laners early so they have a chance to be shut down.
Now I'm talking about top lane, the lanes where if you pick someone who doesn't have absurd mobility you are forever shoved out of lane while they hit you harder and harder for free.
Under turret? Doesn't matter. Proper timing means they can poke you without taking a shot.
The fact that a matchup like that exists to the point where the cs is 40 to 110 is absurd.
The differences in raw stats from melee to range top laners is so non-extistant it's not worth mentioning. At most theres a 10 base ad difference with a 9 base armor difference. That is nothing. This does not make up for the free harass and forever zoning the lane possesses.
Range vs Melee matchups are cancer.
Yes, there are some champs that can deal with it. But I shouldn't be REQUIRED to go that specific top laner just because they picked a range toplaner. Even then, what happens if i locked in top first? What do I do?
Make an item, buff stats, do SOMETHING to stop this BS..
**
** just pplay one of these more then halve of them are meta top laners to begin with
Any item they could possible introduce or something to help out thetank would be game breakingly OP.
Right now you just have to settle with them missing out on a slot for a tank.
were all forgotten i guess
