Shyvana is a tank.

Why do people say she is not a tank? She gets bonus resists from her passive and has good base damages. Her ultimate is an aoe slight knockback that also gives some hp.

She's a Juggernaut

A pretty speedy one at that.

Almost diverish.

Shyvana is listed under Juggernauts (which are fighters). Juggernauts are know for their high durability, high damage and mediocry mobility/utility.

Fighter. Not tank.

Because it's a Slight AoE knockback that's on her ultimate which has the primary intention to increase her damage so she's more of a threat because of damage.

Tanky==Tank.

She has little CC and does high damage, tanks have high CC and do little damage. She's a juggernaut like darius.

Least they should, nowadays tanks are chunking everything.

Because her ultimate is hardly ever used for the CC and other than that she has no CC. Tanks are usually defined by having CC being the main focus of their kit in one way or another.

Her ult engage is not really enough lock down to justify her as a Vanguard. Really she's a fighter (Diver). Given that she already builds a lot of the fighter items, and can do good damage with them.

I don't think she is single target lock down focused enough to be a Diver as well. She is more like a Juggernaut/Skirmisher hybrid in my eyes.

Tanky and tank are not interchangable. She's durable, but she's a secondary engage champion for the most part and has only one wildly unreliable tiny form of crowd control.
