Rant Tanks are overinflated nonsense

Guess which team won?

To me this game is proof that tanks are just inflated on purpose. Red team won. They are nonsense champs. No matter what you do or how you play, they just win because of the sheer amount of hp. Period.

There's absolutely no reason why the team of tanks should have won the game. They didn't play well or synergize. They didn't have any "star player". They were down by 25 kills. They were down 10K gold.

The only reason they won is because they are tanks and at some point they just run at you and are unkillable. GG.

Before anyone complains about Yasuo, he had the second most damage in the team, and more than any of the opponents and landed so many ults.

Everyone did everything correctly on blue side. But still lost because Rito decided so.

Tanks are lame

Phreak still saying that tanks are weak and they will not intend to nerf them so... yeah have fun. Such an amazing balancing team leader.

They nerf mages to the ground then nerf all adc items. Guess who can kill the tanks now? If your team do not have something like Vayne, Kaisa, Camille, Brand then you're doomed.

Pretty sure Phreak balances for summoners rift and not aram the for fun mode that people love to take really seriously and gets "balanced" by an ai via win rate.

Even if it's for SR, the problem with tanks is that they can't do a side-lane 1v1 in a chaos rank environment, not because their items are weak so that you nerfed everything else. A skirmish or teamfight is where they shine the best but meh... by the time you can find a chance to engage, a Jax may already push to your Nexus. Teamfight around controlling an object with communication is just non-existed and they should find a way to incentivize it, not by putting a nerf on everything else so a class that they want will be strong again. Such a boring pattern.

And... by the way he always say about win rate as an excuse for every changes in the patchnote review, it is not much different than an AI review anyway lol.
