I don't understand why people keep saying assassins are weak and can't kill anything...

I mean Tristana Vayne Twitch DravenJhin can kill squishies in just one or two autos.

Like Tristana is the perfect assassin, just jump in, throw your execute on top of any squishy or troll champ like Zed and auto with your item 3031 item 3087 item 3094 and they die right away, and for slightly tankier ones like Rammus withitem 3075 item 3742item 1409 item 3047 item 3143 item 3110 maybe you need to auto like two more times but your item 3036 will do all the work anyway.

And Vayne withitem 3031 item 3087 item 3094 item 3153 can just R+Q auto any squishy like Malphite and kill them in one hit

Twitch is the same as Vayne but he actually shreds the whole team instead. If they have an extremely tanky champion, like Draven withitem 3812 item 3046 item 3047 and his jungler's item 3109 he might need to press E as well but that's ok.

Draven isn't exactly an assassin, more like a burst tank, but his Q auto+auto combo can one shot squishies like DrMundo so he counts

And Jhin is a bit different because sometimes he builds weird items like item 3142 item 3147 which I think are outdated items from when assassins built lethality instead of shiv, but hisitem 3031 item 3087 item 3094 item 3147 +auto combo can insta delete even the tankiest champions, like the afore mentioned Draven

Did you know?

Tristana has the exact same kit and numbers she had in 7.13 where she was below 49% Win Ratio, was below 4% Pick Ratio and was the 15th Worst ADC in the game.

That's right: She's the exact same and hasn't been buffed at all since those times

Don't believe me? Look it up.

All of you just jump onto this hate train, put a champion in a vacuum and don't seem to care about understanding why a champion may be good at a time. Now comes the down vote flood...

It was this one time that I played this one troll champion Khazix and jumped on a Draven after he got Veigar ulted but unfortunately their janna had her mechanics on point that game and pressed a button and this tank Draven killed me with 3 basic attacks.

Really don't get why people say that those assassins in the bot lane are weak.

Like Tristana is the perfect assassin, just jump in,

Ok I hate Tristana. But if she actually jumps in your team and you don't kill her then you deserve to lose .

Idk if there still is that Vayne change on PBE where her Q can't crit but W does more damage but that would've solved the problem.

So is M&G where we take stupid Gameplay posts and pretend we're memeing?

The sad truth. If marksmen can't one shot tanks then we hear about "MUH TANK META" for months.

Don't group jhin with the rest of the ad carries, dude hasnt been viable since the first 6 moths of his release. The rest i can agree with.

Champions in general are doing too much damage against a tank building resists and they don't even have to build last whisper or void staff.

Pfft.... what is that noob trash? Get that shit outta here, the only way to build Jhin is to build 4 Last Whispers. Only then can you achieve true perfection. http://i.imgur.com/5e6x1jj.png?1

Now, see, you're clearly not looking at this logically and that's why you may have trouble in games.

The correct counter to this is to go Janna (preferably a team of 4 of them) and then something like Caitlyn to shut those other ones down in the early game. Then you use Janna to basically turn Caitlyn into an ultra-assassin (but totally balanced) and torture those poor shmucks from way outside their range. Duh.
