Then you watch a tank vs tank battle and realize they don't actually do that much damage but the people claiming they do a lot of damage just have absolutely no defenses against their small damage.
You know, I'm actually fine with tanks dealing reasonable damage as long as they don't have high mobility. They need damage because if they aren't a threat why would you bother hitting them? What I'm not okay with is them getting that damage for free because there ratios are too high. That way there is some degree of give and tank. You want a heavy hitter, wont be as hard to kill. Want a invulnerable wall, won't hit that hard. Honestly what I think kills LoL tanks for me is the fact that a lot of "meta" ones have high mobility on top of naturally high damage, and thats not right. Things like Cho'Gath are fine, they don't really move that fast, but are very hard to kill and will rip your face off and force feed it to your buddy. Gragas is another example of a good tank. Hes hard to kill and has good mobility, but sacrifices damage. Things that break the game are Tanks like Ekko who has insane mobility, can build almost full tank and still gets really really good AP of a handful of low-cost items that potentially still give tank stats. You can have 2 of the 3 tank attribute but if a champion can have all three in good standing theirs a real problem.
2 minutes later and I'm still waiting for something to happen
Damn Laughing Fish set my expectations to high for you
How are you supposed to take them out? with ground attack aircraft's, and they way your looking at it it would seem those are bruisers, but even bruisers can't compete against them.
We just need better AP tank busting options and the problem would be solved.
