I remember good old times when MasterYi Warwick Olaf Tryndamere XinZhao could solo baron easily.

Now they overbuffed baron to the point that you can barely kill it with 3 people, and even then it takes like 5 minutes to bring it down. It's extremely difficult to rally the entire team to help you take baron in soloQ, back in S4 you could take it regardless of how uncooperative your team was.

Now the only jungler who can still solo baron Warwick is also one of the weakest and most binary ones.

you are joking right, i have solo Baron with Olaf with full health after i was done. It is so easy. IDK what you are talking about. And the others, yeah they cant.

Even if Olaf can solo baron, he is in such a bad spot right now that it's literally all he can do. At least WW will always be useful because he knows how to press R at the very least, but both are in such bad spots that you never see them in games, therefore you never see baron get soloed.

Wow, really? i take Olaf top all the time and almost always beat them. In a tank meta relying on CC and being armored Olaf thrives. You just need to find a build or playstyle, and no i don't get fed but i can do anything i need to help the team in its entirety. You kinda miss the point, just because in general they aren't the best doesn't mean that cannot be played and dominate all who stand in their way. And the other team doesn't expect someone to solo Baron, when they see the other 4 wandering about Olaf can safely take it and plunge back into the fight.

I am tired of hearing "of hes weak right now" or "This and this just counters him" THIS IS A GAME, and i play it however i want, and i have realized that Olaf is in fact strong right now in the fact that he destroy objectives. Shred any tank in his way, not worry about petty CC and 1v1 almost anyone that is fed and believes they can duel. And in a team fight he can charge in first taking all initial damage while sustaining well enough for the crucial seconds that are needed, and start at the ADC or carry while the rest of team follows up. Such a bad spot? Start playing some of the champs that arent in a good spot and see how they do. So many champions get left behind and never seem to be picked, because some people just worry about the meta, ITS TIME TO BREAK THE META!!

I disagree on Warwick being the only one that can solo baron. If I am ahead well enough or need it because of thornmails, I grab item 3072 & item 3065 . I have a feeling you are speaking kit wise, though.

That's because Dragon and Baron aren't supposed to be taken so casually.
