just my .02 but i still see darius, a supposed tanky champ, be quite a menace, especially late game. the burst champs seem much more popular recently but IMO that makes the champs that can take a beating even more valuable.

I like the point above about Nasus. I have seen plenty of games where he is losing lane but comes back to haunt the other team late game, at which point everyone starts screaming at the player in his lane for letting him get stacks.

Well I kinda feel Rammus is still a true tank. The reason is that when I played a game yeasterday I was fed as fck with Riven. To be honest, he was to strong to handle. Like maybe I could 1v1. But then again there is the taunt and his W. I am not saying Rammus is the best tank, because he isn't. Different tanks works well in different scenarios. Anyway, he was at least a beast. Even though I had 7/1.

You missed the point, the question in OP is: Are tanks dead COMPETITIVELY, not generally dead. Rammus is good solo queue champion, a bit weaker this season than last, but he's still strong.
