A lot of the damage in URF comes just from magical sources, which makes it that much easier to tank and allow your damage allies to demolish the enemy team. Just remember to ban Riven and Zed to keep it all magical!

Build these guys pure MR tank and watch them roll people:

Tier 1 Tanks: can lane, trade and clear with the best of 'em, even super scary URF mode bullies like Ziggs and Lux

Maokai: Saplings are his saving grace in the lane phase, and once you get BV/SV/Warmogs or something similar you can sit in the enemy team and spam /laugh while you root and knockup anyone you please

Galio: hoooooo boy was this mode made for Galio. Late game his W never goes down and you practically heal from any incoming damage. Just remember to trigger that ult for the damage!

Hecarim: Has always been hilarious in URF. Is still hilarious.

Swain: Death? What's death? Swain with perma ult don't give a flying duck.

Chogath: QUIET. cho can clear waves ezpz with Q and E and that lockdown in teamfights is unreal.

Tier 2 Tanks: Hard to lane on their own but in a pair with a dedicated waveclearer these lockdown tanks are amazing at setting up kills.

Nautilus: can also try to clear with his 0 CD e. But that lockdown is still strong.

Blitzcrank: Grab with no CD and no mana cost? Yes please.

Alistar: even with the nerf his ult is pretty stupid

Malphite: his poke is absurd but he's got no clear, so stick him with a lux so he doesn't get shoved out.

Olaf: the "hyper-carry" tank. Build full tank items and enjoy perma-cc immunity late game.
