Why Your Tank Dies Instantly | TFT Fundamentals
Your tank has the right items. It still dies in seconds. Here's why.
Most players think tanking is just "stack more HP" or "build armor." But tanking works exactly like damage — there's a formula behind it, and if you're ignoring any part of it, your frontline melts no matter how good your items look on paper.
In this video I break down the full tank formula (HP × Resists × Durability), how to build around what your trait already gives you, and the one tank type where none of this applies.

→ How armor, magic resist, and durability interact
→ Why stacking one resist hands the enemy free value
→ How to build tanks based on your trait (Bruiser, Defender, Juggernaut)
→ CC tanks — the frontline type that ignores the formula completely
