So, Riot, can we nerf the living hell out of AA spam, please?

Played Darius, had THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN (327) armor, which is a 77% reduction AND Tabi's passive, which is another 10% reduction to auto attacks AND I had 3.6k HP... Cait would do >700 damage per auto, and instantly killed me. I had Thornmail too, and she healed more than my damage with fucking BT.

Seriously, who in their right fucking minds thinks this is "fair and balanced"?

Well, if a Caitlyn was full build, she probably had 100% crit, ignored 50%- of your armour, then whatever AD/AS. Not saying its fair, but you also 100-0'd her with flash.

Talking about balance, for tanks to be balanced right now, ADC's have to be able to ignore 45% of their bonus armor.

Melee gets rekt by adc at range. Seems fair. If you get on her she is likely dead. How is that fair if the reverse?

If she was 1v1 ing you or kiting you, you need to try a different tactic.

I'm going to throw you one that's irrelevant to the post here, but I've played Darius into (over the past few days):

As a toplaner. The zoning was too ridiculous to play against and I was forced to farm under tower for the entire game. The results of the games varied, but it's extremely toxic to lane against for right click abuse to ruin the game for the enemy toplaner. Don't you think that this adc-meta is pushing it a bit far when a bruiser like Darius can't even lane against the "meta" toplane picks (which are currently marksmen class at this point)?

Honestly most ADC, could do that. Only certain ADCs people take top because of various traits that makes that desirable, but any adc in a solo lane against Darius, an immobile melee fighter who has no gapclosers, is going to wreck him probably.

That's the nature of a ranged sustained damage champ. Darius isn't even really tanky.

In those situations you let then push and get your jungle fed as hell. That's all you can do.

But again, that's an immobile melee vs most adc,s, not any real underlying issue with ADCs.

...You know DPS Champs are supposed to counter Tankiness, right?

Don't buy thornmail. It's a waste of money that doesn't actually stop the ADC from hurting you. Buy Randuins

That is basically the point of an ADC? She probably had a good build going with Crit.

She would require over five auto attacks to kill you if she did 700 damage per auto.

You could have easily bursted her down.

Life steal is a broken stat.

Caitlyn is intended to do that much damage due to her passive, no matter how hard people say she got nerfed.

Stop playing Darius.

also fuck kassadin while we're at it
