Need help choosing [Support][Tank]

[quote=AlphaMF]Who is the best Male/Female Support champion and who is the best Male/Female Tank champion? I have 6300 and I am trying to decide on a tank or a support[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Maokai technically. He can fulfill nearly any role if worked at well. Next choice, Leona. Lots and lots of CC.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Maokai has some of the strongest initiations in the game with [[twisted advance]]. It literally can't fail the root unless they use some form of CC negation. Along with a knockback, a 35 second ward and AoE 20% damage reduction, he's pretty good. Leona is just 3 stuns all day, erry day. She doesn't need items to scale into late game other than CDR. She has a skill that gives free armor+MR.[/quote]

[quote=tehAsian]I think [[maokai]] is better based on team-wide supportive skills. He may not offer as much single target support, but in team fights his ult is better than most. Also...free wards. FREE...WARDS...[/quote]
