That's all changes pertaining to items typically associated with tanky champions.
Keeping in mind that the raw offensive power of offensive items was nerfed as well (generally less AD and AS on Marksman items), I don't think there is enough of a basis to claim that tanky characters were hit disproportionally. With these item changes, **everyone **takes a hit in raw power. Just looks at the base AD reduction all ADCs suffered.
