Can We End The Tank Meta?

RIP Resonance··4 votes·980 views

Literally, this is going on it's second season straight of tank meta cancer. But, what's even worse this time around is item 3068 item 3025 + literally any champion at all top is boring to watch and play as.

The issue isn't the items listed, but the fact that building tank does more damage than building damage.

In my opinion, the assassin meta was a lot better and more satisfying to play. You could actually outplay someone, instead of the aids of today: whoever has more health wins.

Where's the fun of being blown up from 100-0 in less than a second from somewhere completely unknown? I rather play Pacific Rift and bash it out in a Full Tank Nautilus/Maokai vs. Malphite/Sion Matchup. It's acutally more fun and both sides actually get to do something. It's no "you jump on someone to make it 4v5", so it's actually not even close as boring as the assassin meta.

Tank meta = tanks with tank items everywhere

This meta = assassins with tank/bruiser items everywhere =/= tank meta

Rather it than the assassin meta where you can't do anything. That was a hell hole.

Tanks are viable only because they made the ADCs overpowered - MF, Corki, Quinn, Graves, Lucian - and all these got nerfed. When the enemy team is Quinn - top, Graves /Kindred- jungle, Jhin/Corki - mid, Ez/Lucian - adc and 1 tank support, you need tanks or other ADCs to counter.

these items have barely changed in years. even sunfie cape only got 50 health and additional damage to minions.

what makes you think theyre the issue?

See, delusional idiots will tell you otherwise. This is why league will always be laughed at as a no-skill game.

go ahead and pick up item 3136 and item 1058

see if you have anymore problems against item 3068 + item 3025

the items arent gross.

its all coming back to your champion choice and choice to counterbuild, or not to.
