Sona Ping6 votesEither those three armor items are all Cloth Armors, or you are leaving a lot out of your story.
Sèbelon1 votesif i'm up aginest an ap top laner i should be able to only need 
for example and they should be not doing any form of damage on me untill wayyyyy later in the game when they actully got big ap item themself
ZileanUltJesusOP1 votesIf they are doing that much damage after you build that much resists chances are they are building glass cannon or you arent building the right items. Just because you build a tank item doesnt necessarily mean you built the correct one or it will work against that champ. Sometimes an offensive item is the better route so you can fight then. For example, against vlad top i almost always rush hexdrinker, it gives you mr and ad and a magic shield vs all his damage, much more useful then getting just mr with 1200 gold. Unless im playing somebody like nasus i do this, rumble is annoying however banshees veil and merc treads rush shield null out most of his damage.

EffectFX2 votesYou basically just have no idea how to play against those champions.
Sèbelon1 votesand even now when i'm started to play tank top lane galio and have maxed W on me and i still melt me is like what the hell?
Erockandroll1 votesIf you picked a Tank into Vlad. You removed any pressure against vlads weak laning phase. Both Vlad and Rumble are difficult with MR since they do Sustained damage. Particularly Rumble who requires few items.
However, if your Melting to the enemy after building defenses, I would be convinced that your not taking your CC into best use.

That's quite a lot that riven actually has. did she have her Lucidity boots? That would be extra finesse and defenses as well as offensive boosts. Unless you can stick to riven, the sunfire is useless. Unless you were using it for wave clear, but you can't beat riven in that. You also really shouldn't stack Randuins and frozen Heart.
In that position, I would go Wormargs, Frozen Heart, Thornmail. Since riven is High damage low defense, thornmail will do more damage than Sunfire, and reduce her healing from her life steal. The Frozen heart is mostly the CDR for your abilities. Wormargs will offer you better Health Regen than any of your other items. offering you better lane sustain.
Also Vlad spike mid game after level 9 when he maxes his Q. If he gets to that point with WotA and Zhonyas then you have already lost your early game advantage. A sion you won't have kill pressure on Vlad so you need to take advantages elsewhere. Start with a Flask. Do the level 2 clear cheese and TP to lane. Rush a specters Cowl, don't upgrade it yet. Start building your Frozen Heart, or at the very least the Glacial shroud. So that you have Mana and CDR. Start pushing into his tower and denying him farm.
