Since Top lane is pretty much all tanks right now
The only champs that weren't tanks that were being played were Jax/Irelia because of Rageblade but that's being nerfed next patch, and Trynd/Yasuo because of Warlord's Bloodlust, but that was already hotfixed
Shen/Mundo/Hecarim/Malphite are out of control at the moment especially Mundo and Malphite
Death by Glamour3 votes300g isnt that great a nerf on rageblade but it is the only item keeping irelia jax and xin for that matter in the game.
Add shen to your list aswell.
EndlessSorcerer1 votesDevourer + Fervor of Battle should keep Xin Zhao around long after Rageblade is nerfed.

Was talking about in toplane.
But devourer is a mid late game item while games are often decided in the first 10mins.
Also i like grasp on renekton for some reason.
EndlessSorcerer1 votesEven with Devourer, Xin Zhao still has strong dueling and ganks due to his kit.
I'm honestly torn between Grasp of the Undying and Fervor of Battle on Renekton.
On the one hand, Graph of the Undying is nice for a bit more burst damage and sustain when fighting and trading and Renekton typically has a lot of health. He can quite easily jump on enemies when it will apply to his next attack and force a trade in his favour.
On the other hand, Renekton autoattacks a lot between his abilities and his W applies on-hit effects 2/3 times. Fervor of Battle provides a lot of burst and sustained damage to his kit which can help him stay relevant even when he builds defensively.

Why not both, depending on the match-up and team composition?
Grasp if you need to play a more tank-oriented/frontline role for your team. Fervor if you find yourself in a more damage-focused/splitpush type of set-up.
Envoy of Death1 votesye all those full dmg irelias, jax,tryn,fiora,gp are tanky as fuck
