Tank
A Tank is the champion class built to soak damage and create space for its team rather than deal big damage itself. Tanks stack health, armor, and magic resist, then use that durability to lead engages, body-block threats, and survive the focus of an entire enemy team.
Their real value is utility: most tanks bring strong, often chainable crowd control that locks down priority targets long enough for carries to do the work. Played top lane, jungle, or support, tanks are forgiving and team-reliant, making them one of the steadiest classes for newer players to climb on.
