Assassins

Hello

So I was playing ranked TFT and had a full 3 star team with Gunsligers and Wild, I was winning every round with an almost perfect score, but suddenly there is this guy who is only using assassins in his comp that simply destroys my entire team in just 10 sec of round. I mean aren't 3 star units better and tankier? Well normally, yes, but if there is assassins they're just as 1 star units paper for their hands.

What I'm trying to say is that there is a:

Problem: There is a huge impact on the game by using assassins, and by now the only things that can help against it are PD (Phantom Dancer) and a 2/3 star Shyvana Shyvana with 2 essential items item 3146 item 3083 and any other item.

Sugestions: I'd consider reducing their damage to 75% of the damage they are dealing right now or Changing their reliability on the "critical damage" by reducing the probabilty of dealing "critical damage".

I'm not saying that this has to be done is just my sugestion, I myself do assassins sometimes and that is why I'm writting this.

It is not as easy as you think.

Assassins are the most bugged team comp. Every second match enemy units doesn't move and you lose. They are also very prone to just standing around after jumping and not doing anything at all.

You either delete enemy team in matter of seconds or you get deleted yourself.

Nerfing their damage or increasing tankyness of frontline champions would make them not viable at all.

They will probably need to be completely reworked. The current bonus is stupid and cannot be balanced.

while assassins are extremely strong atm i would say the biggest reason you lost is because your comp fall off hard over time.

for starters most 3 stars one cost fall off so hard vs 4 costs 2 stars and both gunslingers and wild are filled with low costs, and both comps fall off by their neutral as they dont have that powerful late game and normally used with other comps since they are small.

Yordles. Knights. Guardians. Some items. Maybe an armored tier 3 or two. Just a few things that might work out better.
