Do not nerf Demolish rune.

I know someone people dislike the demolish rune

Quite honestly, of the many runes introduced, this is one of the best. Why? Because originally, we have seen only 2 types of roles excel at punishing roams or sieges. ADC and champions melee split pushers like Jax, Fiora, Yi.etc

If you die in lane against a Fiora post 7 minutes with a enemy minion wave, you can say goodbye to your turret. The same applies if you decide to roam from your turret with one of the champions mentioned above. it also applies late-game in split pushing scenarios.

Do you know when this never happens? With tanks. You can roam, you just don't get punished for it. Even roaming vs a mid lane AP champion is more punishing because they gave AP champions the ability to do more damage to structures based on their AP. Now, if you roam against a Annie, you turret will will take nice chucks.

Tanks needed that. They needed some ways to be effective outside of being glorified supports. Yes, that's what tanks were last season. With the exclusion of Cho and maybe Sej (mostly due to her passive), tanks were mostly running around CC'ing champion and using item 3190 + item 3193 or item 3109

I understand how they should be able to push towers too, but when the support alone is dealing 1/3 of a tower's hp, it is a little unfair

This is considered an outlier

I can understand the issuing coming up in the bot lane.

However, if the tank support can stack HP and push the lane so hard, the demolish rune didn't really do much.

800 damage after a few seconds for free is a lot though
