Tanks are dead

Since we are starting the season, it's a good time for changes and i think tank itens could get some love.

Warmog / Randuin's could get some nerfs reverted

Sunfire could scale a little bit better, around ~65 damager p/ tick

And PLEASE give us Force of Nature back

I'm tired of league of assassins

League of Legends does not, and doesn't need to obey the laws of the MMO Holy Trinity (Tank, Healer, DPS). While being able to soak more damage than a squishy is in fact a defining part of a tank, it is not their reason for existing.

Tankiness is a tool that champions are supposed to use to do their job (i.e.: CC and disruption), not a free pass to sit in the middle of the enemy team. If you are standing in range of the enemy team's damage and your team isn't in position to make something happen, you are out of position and deserve to die.

tanks need to be reworked (champions) to suit their role better with gutted defensive items if we buff the items without touching champions bruisers will benefit much more from the changes than tanks resulting in tanks being even worse than now compared to counterparts

Is it that bad? I haven't played much since we've gone live. What are you building, in what order, and on who?

That awkward moment when all my mains are tanky and I do just fine with them.

My job is to soak up damage and fight accordingly, not completely negate their damage just because "lol im a tank"

But I'd never be opposed to tanky items' buffs.
