true about the carry thing, i allmost did a penta(the fifth escaped because the enemy team was focusing hard carryes) but his tanking abilities are very good. a carry like ashe cait or vayne will love staying near you(if he;s smart enough and u play good) because he will get tons of free kills. if they play nasus offtank it's their problem cause they don't use his full potential in my opinion because a nasus with warmong frozen heart/thornmail banshee veil and sf cape and omen i don;t think u can regard him as offtank. well it;s up to every player to choose his playstyle or better to adapt to the situation in front of him


Yes see it is that carry thing, and the fact there is no more spaces.

Thank you so much for this guide. It has really cleared up a lot of question that I have had. For one thing so many people yell at me when I am tanking and have around 2/6/12, so I can now refer them here haha. I do have one question still however. If I am, say, 4/9/21 and the rest of my team has a good KDR and around the same assists, am I doing something wrong because they have many assists as well? Just a thought my friend mentioned to me when he was tanking.


Thanks to jhoijhoi for the sig(s)!

At that point I'm just gonna call it they were helping each other kill someone and at that point it just came down to whoever got the call. So no not really.

Hey, I am a review from JhoiJhoi's Review Shop. For my review, just would like it if you checked out my Kennen guide.

Great Tanking Guide. Really in-depth.

One coding error, in Solo Lane vs Duo Lane, the Solo Lane part has a pic, but it isn't showing. You might want to fix that. Also you forgot some champs that are pretty good at tanking and solo top (ex: Irelia, GP, Rumble just to name a few).

Its a great guide, sorry I didn't go to in-depth, cause I don't see anything else to comment about, its a very good guide for tanking, and it will help those that want to learn how to tank.

Thanks,
Vitigam

Yo I like your idea of Effective Health Points, but I think you got the math wrong.

Since armor and magic resistance (call it X) follows the rule that damage reduction is X/(X+100) It means that your first point of armor or magic resistance is going to work in your formula, 1/101 is about 1% so you should have 1% more effective health. But by the time you have 100 armor 100/200 = 50% each point of armor is now half as effective, those first points of armor or Magic resistance do more than later ones. Also for your effective health you assume that all damage is going to be physical int eh case of armor and magic in the case of MR and it usually isn't so I would cut the bonus health in half assuming damage comes about 50/50 from physical and Magical.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'll fix the little pics here soon.

@biodot: That effective health is for that item only. I assume adding up each effective health item will give you the total effective health your character has then you can spilt it between physical and magical.
