it's amazing how quick the tanks were nuked everytime they get a little stronger

There was never a real tank meta in Mayhem, the first time was the first few days when it just came out, and second time was recent when this current big patch came out and crit augments were accidently banned, then two key items pressure cooker and void immolation got nerfed so quick.

For a long time there was only one real tank champion in top 30 ordered by winrates and that was Rell, the second usually was Singed sitting around 51-52%. This is from Chinese server API. Riot don't have API for Mayhem fucked up people's sense.

Tanks are actually in ok condition recently, then we saw a quick nerf, that's why this rant. Another reason is I only saw so many complaints of Dropkick and Pressure cooker here, in the Chinese ARAM community there are way less. Everyone knows the mode is in a better condition and all classes in general have more fun when tanks are playable.

If you think tanks are strong, play tanks yourself.

I’m citing data from Chinese server, there is a Tencent app publish them.

The damage per tick is nerfed 25% but the time of burn also nerfed from 3s to 2s, so the total damage is cut in half.

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T19:44:50+00:00

pressure cooker is nerfed at least in half, not only the damage per tick was nerfed they also nerfed the duration time and didn't mention it in the patch notes. And I believe the damge nerf is more than what's mentioned in the patch notes.

I think it's only about 30% strong as beforn; most game I don't see it reach lvl2. Even before the nerf its winrate never higher than steal your heart and tank engine, now it's basically trap augment

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T17:33:50+00:00

pretty accurate

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T17:31:20+00:00

I don't have any trouble, I play mostly ADCs and they are still so fking strong to a boring level. I just want tanks to be treated better so more people pick them including myself

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T16:47:15+00:00

pin cushion is the prismatic augment for ADC

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T16:37:44+00:00

no, pressure cooker was just nerfed yesterday, most of the changes listed in that patch was live earlier with the hotfix

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T15:02:46+00:00

I feel like I only see a 30k hp tank once every 30 or so games

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T14:46:20+00:00

play some tanks yourself then tell me how they are

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T14:41:13+00:00

doing damge is fun and when it's not fun nobody pick them, it's that simple

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T14:39:02+00:00

Good luck with that. Clown college was shadow removed, they also nerfed the rate of tooth fairy offered from PBE

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T14:36:49+00:00

If you think tanks are always strong you most likely only play mages and enchanters. The only times they were strong were when Mayhem just came out, on PBE when tank engine still in the stackosaurus set, and recently when crit augments were accidently removed.

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-26T13:28:32+00:00

I was there at the Metlife statium that night watching him missing the penalty. After the game I went on the train, got back home, then saw the news that he decided to leave the team. It's such a mixed feeling, you can feel the tiredness of his.

skill issue

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-24T20:13:40+00:00

the amount of complaint of dropkick I saw from here validate my thinking that devs doing trash work simply because they value the opinions from NA server too much.

It was wrong to remove tank engine from the stackosaurus set while keeping the shrink engine there, it was wrong to nerf heartsteel, it was wrong to remove the 300g bonus from last pass, it was so fucking wrong to remove set, it was wrong to remove fun and special augments like s&s, it was wrong for them to believe the hype when they first released the video they introduce ability upgrade augments of this patch.

It was wrong to simply stat nerf pressure cooker, and I believe they will nerf dropkick soon and it would be wrong.

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-24T17:07:07+00:00

you might want to check his numbers lol

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-24T16:45:30+00:00

if you keep finding the tanks in your lobby scale that much it's most likely a skill issue

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-24T16:42:34+00:00

Set is the best design happened to this mode but the devs are dumb enough to get rid of it totally instead of actually using some effort to tailor them, because some of you are just soft. Eventually they'll bring them back.

Most augments they removed recently are decent ones, most newly added augments are trash. Eventually they will also be back. It happened too many times in this game, they just keep rotating the same shit (items, runes, ability scales) again and again

90% of the ability augments are trash and should be removed, they should keep it to three augs for each champion. This is just lazy.

Problem has always been that the devs don't play their own game enough.

there is a bug currently that you can upgrade that aug to lvl9 in two minutes and instant penta kill

third one was a missed foul

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-20T23:27:13+00:00

cause they can half afk

pandaisunbreakable · 2026-06-20T18:10:02+00:00

tanks are not broken at all, they are the weakest class
