This is the rune page I use for tank supports: and I guess if I ever played him

I have AD marks, largely for easier proccing of but also because tank supports still do a surprising amount of damage early game and I have often stolen kills from my adc $$

Health seals because it makes me more durable early game

Armor quints because facing an adc in lane and I like surviving

A few mr glyphs for defense against an ap support, and cdr glyphs, so that when combined with my standard 0/9/21 tank support masteries gives me 10% cdr at gamestart.

Anyone have feedback regarding what I should change?

I like to take armor marks, hp flat seals, mr flat glyphs, and hp quints. This of course has no offensive benefits, but you become extremely tanky.

I would take 2 armor quints, 1 hp quint flat because you can get 2 armor with 0/9/21 masteries.

Most of the supports I play are tanky and my set up is Armor reds, Armor Quints, Scaling HP yellows, and Scaling MR blues.

That is a viable option for runes, except the health seals. supports gain levels the slowest of all roles on the map, scaling hp just doesn't do much for them.

My tanky support page is almost the same, except I use flat health seals and flat magic resist. The tankiness of this set up is superb

My favorite support rune page has armor marks, scaling armor seals, scaling magic resist glyphs, and flat health regen quints. You can easily trade the seals or quints for gold generation if you want though.
