No offence, but your guide pretty much suck. Alot of the items you list as not so useful are very very good in most situations while the cheat sheat for your champions suck.
Amumu's bandage toss is useful, no doubt, but lvl 1 is good enough. The cooldown is usually so long that in a teamfight, w/o cooldown items, it doesn't make a difference. So leaving it at lvl 1 is better. Despair makes him shine. This makes him an anti-tank since 2.7% damage is quite alot to tankers. Imagine a 5.3k hp Alistar. Every second, you damage him 143.1 damage for 8 mp EVERY second. While it may not be much, thornmail can pwn your carry teamates. I seen an Evelynn suicide by attacking my friend who attacks the nexus. Evelynn died w/o a single skill casted by his Malphite.
Rammus I can't say much since I never played it.
Shen, seriously? I've gone playing public matches using a pure tank shen following my friend's suggestion and we totally trashed almost every single match we played that way. Shen is the most useful for saving teamates as he has taunts which can be over a long line. But you didn't suggest well for this.
What about other tanks?
Chogath, Malphite, Maokai, Vladmir are just a few others that is totally godly, but not stated. Chogath's ulti makes him have 150 hp per stack, max 900 hp at max stacks. Malphite is a general godly tanker, Maokai is quite useful and Vladmir is the only possible range tanker with high damage and good skills to stay alive.
If you noticed, your items are totally little as compared to most other SINGLE character guides. And some tanks in particular NEEDS stuff like frozen heart. You neglected the fact that Frozen Heart also reduces cooldowns, and it can seriously change a teamfight much more than alot other items.
I hope you take my comments in consideration and make this guide fuller

I find this guide alright but it's a little too generic. Try going indepth into one tank and explain more about them.

seriously did those who voted down even read?

"AnIh" and "DiscoGrind" saying the main tanking items everyone uses are bad tanking items seriously? cause there isn't many more items that can be used in a tanking sense

"Can I Bust in U" i believe the word your looking for is dynamic as static means fixed, and does one cheap item really make shen dps? i think not, i do tend to build him off tank for reasons stated in the guide but he is far from dps



"Draktharr" i hope you ignore the other comments and give the guide a go, i created it to hopefully give new people a foothold. most people don't play tanks and its probably because as a tank you wont get the best score on your team you will however get a huge number of assists and on a char like rammus paired with a dps who realises its a team game you will get much thanks for setting up so many kills. Tanks are like the glue of a team without them you will fall apart really easily

tanks should build static. there is no "build" for a tank. Static meaning you should build according to your enemies. Informative in a lot of aspects, but also lacking in item utility, and your item choice for shen is offtank/dps. Ouch. Good ideas here, but needs some work, and possibly game experience.

This is actually not that bad. The items aren't the best, but the idea of knowing what to buy instead of us copying a build is good. All in general, +1
Good guide.
