Meta and roles to a bronze

I always though the meta and roles were always pretty standard with the exception of a few champions. tank/bruiser top, burst mid, high attack damage ADC to counter the tanks, and a jungle/supp wild card that prioritized helping lanes and utility over carrying themselves. this way seems to allow for each lane to be able to carry while getting countered itself (ADC>TOP>MID>ADC, Poke/harass > low dps with high resistance and health > burst > poke/harass) with help for jungle and support.

However ever since 5.16 the new meta seams (based on my recent game experiences): Garen Darius Irelia Fiora RivenYasuo Chogath top only. Kayle LeeSinXinZhao MasterYi Shyvana Skarner Warwick Udyr jungle only. Veigar Viktor Orianna Fizz Annie Malzahar Ahri mid only Mordekaiser Vayne Ashe Jinx Caitlyn ADC only Nautilus Leona Blitzcrank Morgana Braum support only Is it just me or does the ADC (Mordekaiser and Vayne are exceptions) seem less needed? These champions are not carrying anymore due to the new items and champion changes (item 3143 practically breaks Ashe,Jinx, and Caitlyn for DPS since Ashe scales crit and attack speed. Jinx builds primary crit and attack speed, andCaitlyn passive is crit and she also goes a bit of attack speed to get her passive more often). Further more Mordekaiser and Vayne are usually banned anyways. So how is the tanks and brusiers who now do decent damage for minimal damage items (a lot of true damage also from Garen and Fiora. Seriously i got villain ulted by Garen for 1k true damage) is this the fall of the poke/harass marksmen with limited resistance that does not do %health each hit Vayne ? Or could we see a change in ADC items and stats?
