Can we do something about Tank Akali please?
Yes, this is still a problem, a relatively huge problem. You can add a 4k hp tank to the "Will delete me" list, a combination that only nightmares would stir up.

For all the crying I see I haven't seen it in game even once.
I personally feel like her basedamages arent high enough to make this build strong. I never lost against it, always stomped the shit out of her, even if I died early towerdiving.
It's a niche pick. If you try to play Tank Akali into any random laner you are going to get stomped the hell out of laning and be useless for the rest of them game. If you don't snowball you're in a lot of trouble. Sure her base damage and sustain is good, but up against lane bullies that doesn't matter. Like good luck trading with
who's just gonna smack you in the face when you try to jump on him.
Although i have played it and i can confirm it's decently strong, it's not without counterplay. It's similar to something like
. Difficult to play against if they know what they're doing. Tanky yet deals significant damage. But not impossible to beat.
It also becomes useless if the game goes past 35 minutes. She brings nothing of value as a tank. Sure she can front line and soak damage but she doesn't bring CC like 

. Because she has no CC she also can't peel for her carries if they get dove by an assassin. The only thing she can do is try to kill that assassin faster than they can kill her carry...which she can't do because they built damage and she built tank. Late game she doesn't have the burst to kill a carry before that carry get some help from their team.
I'd also be willing to bet that a late game 
could 1v1 Tank Akali.
