OMG please we need a tank!!!! Tanks are necessary during game play. Their tanks will penetrate your back line, force your carries out, and never die. Why have tank-builds died in this Meta? Top is usually the first position called, then they pick a great character, I get excited!!! Check their build and they have 2 or 3 offensive items and no defensive items!!! Please bring the tanks back.

Just imagine a wonderful Nasus tank build with stacks: you push past their weak line, then item 3143 active, wither their ADC, then smash him in the face once, twice, oh wow even three times, he summoner 4 away. Then u realize for some reason this team has used 3 ults on you, but you are only slightly below half health. Now you ULT, yes it's about to go down!!!! Spirit fire their silly grouped team. Oh look your team is now fully engaged. There goes their APC, oh look at that silly support die, yes puny damage jungle build run and hide, on second thought ::wither::, no survivors "KILL THEM ALL." Then you look again your health bars are nearly gone. Now this pathetic little jungler turns around to finish you. HAHAHA, now you dodge behind your team and look they all have more then 40% health. Thanks to you.

Damn, Just think about how amazing this will feel if you just buy a little bit of item 3065 and item 3143

Personally, in top I normally sit on a wardens mail/specters cowl while I build my damage item, then go into tankiness from there.

There's a balance with toplane, you can't build straight tank because then you'll lose lane. You can't build straight damage, because then you'll lose teamfights in midgame.

If you see a Renekton with 3 ravenous hydras and a bloodthirster, then you should complain. A lot. But if they have a few tank items and a few damage items then they're doing their job just fine.

I have no idea what you mean by "bring the tanks back". Tanks are used as support, top and jungling. What do you mean?

I agree that every team must have one hardcore tank in order to be fully effective. I'm not saying they are required to win, but they certainly help. If your team doesn't have a real tank and the enemy team does, unless you outplay them severely, you will lose most of the time.

As far as what role fills this tank, it depends on the champ. Your support can be your tank, as can your jungler and/or top-laner. The main thing the tank needs is a lot of life and good CC.
