Why is it I always have to tank?

Jesus Christ, every time I solo queue and DON'T pick a tank (because I enjoy playing Sivir on occasion) my team picks three more squishy AD champions.

Twice today I lock in Sivir, and my team picks Nocturn, Ashe and Xin. Twice. Last person picked Lux one time and Rammus (AP Rammus, might I add, the only tank item he bought was Frozen Heart) the next.

thats why you don't solo queue. everyone you pick up has a hard on for trying to get the most DEEPS as they can.

Just don't insta-lock. If you're playing solo then you should know that. Wait until they choose their roles, then you pick what role is missing.

I do that sometimes, Bross, but man I have to be honest ALWAYS playing tank gets boring after a while. Like I don't find the game fun if I always have to play the same characters/role, and why play a game if I don't enjoy it?

That's why OCCASIONALLY I like to play Support. Or Luxie. Heaven forbid I pick an AD champion like Sivir or Ashe, because that means we'll just have 3-4 AD and no tank.

Not with four AD.
One item shuts the entire team down.

Yes, Xin is squishy. Unless you build some armor/resists and/or have tons of HP. Most Xin's MIGHT buy a Frozen Mallet for some HP/Slow, and that's it.
