Alistar really shouldn't be a tank, he should just take support/AP items because his ultimate does all the tanking he needs.

Not AP. Just support/tank items.

Their team: Shen, Ryze, Shaco, Warwick, Master Yi
Our team: Nunu & Willump, Jarvan IV, Nocturne, Veigar, Teemo

Shredded them to pieces.


Warwick + Yi + Shaco all on the same team = bad bad bad comp.

So much melee.
Get insta screwed by Veigar AoE Stuns, and Jarv + Nunu Ult combos

And how do you like that Blinding Dart from Teemo? ;)

Either way, some other tanky chars are Maokai, Mordekaiser, Jarvan, Garen and perhaps even Galio ^^



If someone can't stay alive in lane for 6:30 seconds on their own then they got problems.

By the end game, it's not uncommon for alistar to get a Rylai's Crystal Scepter or a Rod of Ages, which is basically what I meant. Also, alistar can get most of the tankiness he needs from support and AP items, though having a few tank items is preferred.

The only viable AP item for Alistar is ROA. Rylai is not very good.
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.

I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817
