Damage Taken Aftergame Stats Misleading with Solution

Currently the after game stats showing damage taken is very misleading because it shows how much health each champion lost during the game.

Well the problem with this is simple. If player A hits player B for 100 damage. But player B has armor and reduces damage by 75% then player B took 25 damage to health. So player B soaked 75 damage which is useful information for tank. So player B took 100 damage and soaked 75 of the damage. But the stats ONLY show that he took 25 damage instead of the 100 player B actually took.

So the solution is simple. Make damage calculate as if ALL damage was true damage for stats and then have another option to show damage taken with mitigation included.

agreed, just like how highest crit should be replaced with highest dmg in one hit.

This still isn't misleading because everyone has damage reduction and it is technically correct by saying they only took 25 damage from a 100 damage attack. There is only one champion who this is misleading on and that is Morde because damage his shield blocks isn't counted. A stat I would like changed in the end game lobby is healing done and lifesteal. For some reason lifesteal isn't considered healing and it is kind of a sham when it says that Nasus healed for 0 at the end of the game.

Yes but example of a problem. Lets say I have a singed on my team and I am rammus. I as rammus will have a lot of armor and magic resistance where as singed will have less but a lot of health. Singed will have taken lets say 5000 dmg at the end of the game if it was true damage. And I will have taken 10000 but it shows I only took 4000 damage. Now how can I correctly judge my build or correctly judge if I was soaking more damage than the other tank. As a tank one of your jobs is to soak up damage. you want them to WASTE as much energy as possible to kill you. If I made the enemy team WASTE more I did a better job. I want to know that.
