  imagine not having the mobility to get close, while also not having the durability to take more than 5 seconds of the enemy adc or jungler attacking you without exploding, that's what happened.

  The main problem is tempo. The game is pushed to be so burst oriented and fast that the identities of the classes end up getting lost. Sure nowadays there&apos;s more ways to deal with a tank, but nowadays everything kills everything super fast.<br><br>People think that taking too long to kill a tank is a bad thing but it should take longer to kill EVERYTHING. Burst damage used to be an assassin&apos;s trait

  It’s obnoxious getting shredded by dudes with duskblade and untargetability whenever they get a takedown. &nbsp;Items for tanks in this game basically provide stats. &nbsp;Carries all get a ton of utility. &nbsp;It’s backwards. &nbsp;The Carrie’s should get the stats, the tanks the utility.

  As an old swain main before his rework, I felt a lot like a battle tank pretending to be a battle mage.

  The main reason people hate &quot;tanks&quot; is because so many non-tank champs i.e. Sylas, Yone, Katarina have so much damage that they can build tank and still one-shot you. Tank items are broken, but not on tanks.

  Eh, battle tanks rely on their insane durability to allow them leniency in fighting with little inhibition, but now there’s too many ways to counter tanks, and most of the new champs that come out have some way of dealing with them through % damage, % resistance shred/pen, true damage, etc.<br><br>Nowadays it’ rarer for a champ to come out without a form of anti-tank stats in their kits.

  Considering the amount of overloaded carries with built in self heal and multiple dashes, I don&apos;t really think the battle tank idea is problematic at all. I main Naut, and from my perspective it feels like I&apos;m simply gimping myself by playing a champion like him. Why would you pick a champion with strengths and weaknesses when you can pick a champ that can do everything with almost no drawbacks?
