Why tanks?

DPS champs, much like kexis' dry jokes are dime a dozen and dont deviate far from the conventional Berserkers/Edge/Whisper/Bloodthirster core-build

Tanks, unlike us normal folks, are first to the fray, and typically the last one standing.
Much reflected in the way the last one who didnt insta-lock like the other four will have to play tank.

This brings about a level of class that is multiple orders of magnitude beyond the comprehension of sentient beings.


A personal favourite would have to be an alert shen, in the same way you feel you couldnt take five steps away from your tower without having either an Enchanted Crystal Arrow or a Pantheon dropped on your head, you have that visa/mastercard Wherever You Go™ solace of safety strolling through the enemy jungle and you come across a degenerate dope fiend by the handle of "tryndamere" who thinks the cash in your pocket looks nicer in his, as your life flash before your eyes because youre scouting as a squishy for god knows what reason; and suddenly it's a shen outta fucking nowhere, saving the day, the night, and the girl too.

Vladimir =/= Tank

The only viable tanks on there are Shen, Rammus, and Galio. Everyone else falls under off tank because they cant prevent a carry from dying nor can they initiate properly.

Plus everyone knows TankPlank is a better tank then Blitz.

[Einyth]

Vlad, Mundo, Mord = Off Tank.

and for meh, Soraka as tank is op. <3

[konakona]

Would you like me to remake the thread and put on malphite shen rammus amumu and ask "which of these four is your favourite"?

Please, PsychoWolfen, get over yourself

Speedy gonzaless singed, banshee's veil --> cleanse, bitch please.

[Prostigone]

Amumu, AP Cho, and Rammus = Best Standard Soaks/Tanks/Initiators/Derps

Malphite, Nasus, Shen, and Sion = Best Offtanks/Soaks

Blitzcrank = Best Pull-You-Behind-A-Wall-And-Anally-Probe-And-Molest-You-In-Front-Of-Red-Buff/Soak

yeah because half the time theyre busy running for their life because getting into melee range with malphite is lethal but jesus is he the best initiator ever or what he's literally walking DealWithITNErd.mov

Tank Mode Soraka FTW! Wutchu know bout dem healz and extra 80 armor? Can't keep a carry from dying? Man, you need to play summa dat tank/AP soraka and heal peeps and watch everyone focus fire NOTHING. BUT. YOU. You WILL earn all of their hate, all of their rage, and all of their ults as Soraka, leaving your team to lolstomp peeps into the ground. They got magic resist? Starcall them hoes, where's your magic resist NOW!?! You're getting -8 magic resist for 8 seconds and that thing stacks 20 times! That's -160 magic resist peeps! With max cooldown reduction that's 1 starcall a second bro! Soraka for TankSupport Tier!
