Define tank then? Shen, rammus and amumu only ones that don't build any offense generally(even amumu go abyssal late often)

if Riot does decide to nerf jax because of two good games by top players in a top competition it would be extremely shortsighted and frankly annoying.

I feel quite sorry for Europeans, my feelings after watching this tourney are like "EU doesn't have strong solo top Udyr/Jax and Zil players while in US players' hands these champs rape faces, EU can't just pick these to prevent US players from playing them and they can't just afford to blow all 3 bans cause of that"
Yeah if regi learns orianna good that will cost another ban that teams were not to worried about against tsm. Also oddone so strong on gp and noc.
Regi with the stunner shades yo.

It's been like this for a while tbh. Ever since Jarvan came out, Irelia went mainstream, and Shen got nerfed, true tanks are pretty much obsolete and tanky dps reign supreme. The only true tanks you see now are Alistar, because he doesn't need farm to tank, Amumu, because his initiation is amongst the best and he can jungle (altho tbh, I personally feel Amumu's a nuker  ).
As a side note, Maokai's not really a tank. He's more of a tanky caster dps that just simply isn't popular yet.

They do that all the time tho :\
Jax could probably do with a nerf, but I hope if Riot nerfs Jax they nerf him on the same scale as the last Annie nerfs. Small baby steps

Hahah, the casters are especially bad about this but I think people aren't understanding what makes tanks important and what makes them not important.
In the CLG vs M game for instance there was a point where CLG simply couldn't press their advantage because they had no tank to FORCE a fight. Instead due to having no tank all they could really do was hope for a mistake, and M played relatively flawless, allowing them to come back based off CLG's mistakes.
You don't need a tank if you're willing to sit back, farm, play safe, and capitalize on mistakes.
You need a tank if you want to push it at any sort of decent timing.
In solo queue it's often better to have a tank because the longer the game goes, the more likely it is that YOUR team will make a bitter mistake. But it's not necessary, because you can win just off the opponents' mistakes.
