There is a difference between "powerfull 5v5 comps" and "only viable comp even in solo q"...assassin meta was more opresive by far.

Longer TFs make good decision making and positioning even more important, so me, I like TFs with meaningfull tanks (and "so long" is still 10 seconds or less)

Back to the first point, pick comps and early game comps still work, they just need to be played better (stalling the game because you are winning and want a bigger kda is easier to punish)

More: in this forum you can see sometimes rants on how op is a supp...I allwais feel that supports that can "carry" (have a significative impact in) games are healthy. Same goes for tanks, now there is an item that makes them contested picks (they were a dead class in season 4 for many), ok the item is a bit too good and so it's getting nerfed, but the thing is, may be there should be more items like this one so tanks can compete (tanks itemization was lacking till now?)
