Have Tanks been dumbed down to much?

[Aluja89]

Streamlined is the word you're looking for not dumbed down, having a good tank vs having a bad tank is more apparent now than ever you have a lot of tanks going Lolbreaker but unable to mitigate properly and dying on every mass pull whereas you'll have a good Gunbreaker that knows how to use CDs, good dps uptime and great positioning.

If anything tanking has become more free flowing and unshackled if you ask me.

I think you're looking for "boring" more like.
