Not sure why, but been seeing a ton of Alistar and Gragas (on the same team)
It's really really hard to beat. The ganking power of gragas(focusing on top or mid) and the safety of Alistar is insane.
Not sure why, probably because Alistar is so gold efficient and doesn't even need mana items he just power spikes hard
JafarThePanda1 votesAlistair is pretty fucking bad if anyone has the competency to not pile up in lane.
Gary B Enkelis1 votesAlistar's heal and peel is still useful.

the heal that, unless you max it first, and build on it, does nothing for 25 minutes minimum. W Q is hardly peel when you get annihilated for it even if you use R to get out of CC, only to get into it again 2 seconds later.
Gary B Enkelis1 votesSometimes heal is worth maxing first and sometimes W and Q are good. It's all situational.
's heal is better with 
and Windspeaker's Blessing... Some heal is better than no heal.... It has decent cooldown when enemies die around ...

Bond of stone is infinitely better because no matter what, your team is going to group, and you're going to be constantly in the thick of fights. Windspeakers I used to run on 
and 
, because they either had shields, or proc'd them easily. Alistair's heal isn't worth running it on.
Gary B Enkelis1 votesUm... Windspeaker's Blessing isn't bad if you want to get armor, mr, and heals on a lot of people... which happens when you group... It's also in the tree that gets you Intelligence (5% extra CDR) which is very good on in my opinion....
's ultimate is also good for tanking with 70% damage reduction at rank 3....
Gary B Enkelis1 votesThey both have damage reduction, CC/displacement, and heals.
