My opinion on the "Tank meta"
Alright let me get this off first, if you think this meta is a tank meta you are wrong. Cinderhulk meta was tank meta, not this meta.
"Tank are getting blown up to easily"
Is an argument I hear ALL the time, and honestly it is WRONG. If you take a second and look at their op.gg pages they either are 1) Facing a team of tank shredders or 2) Weren't building tank (They were building AD bruiser items. EX:
)
Doesn't deny a tank from doing what a tank does.
This item takes a slot of 6 to simply DEAL MORE DAMAGE TO TANKS. That is it. Most of the time when you build this item enemy carries aren't tankier then you unless they are building AP/AD bruiser, in which case is the special time where you should take this item ALWAYS.
And even if that isn't true, if you build
the enemy ADC will kill them self by simply doing what their role is meant to do, Auto Attacking. The only way they can counter this is by buying one of the most expensive items
instead of buying a item that would help them out with other problems.
By buying
you not only get the highest armor stat in the game, but you force the enemy ADC to either 1) kill them self by autoing or 2) buy one of the most expensive items in the game.
Tanks are dealing too much damage!
Sure, they can but when they do build damage they aren't as tanky as a normal
or any normal tank.
Lets go through the items shall we!
: Sure gives you armor, but gives ZERO HP, meaning AP damage dealers will BLOW THEM UP.
: Same as above, but with AD.
: Any tank shredder = R.I.P. (EX:
)

All of these items have a weakness, and if you don't have a tank shredder against a team of 4 tanks and a ADC, you picked your champions wrong. There is a champion in each role that can shred tanks easily.
I will now list a few for each.
Top:
ADC:
Mid:
(Can one shot tanks)
Support:
(Can slowly kill them while kiting with EQ, and can help their ADC/Team kite too!)
Jungle:
(If you don't own a new character)
(Can take your defenses, while becoming a better tank for his team)
These are my opinions on the tank meta and what people are saying with it, sorry if it is a little ranty. I hope you enjoyed reading and you learned something out of it, and if you disagree that is fine aswell. [slayer-jinx-wink]
