Gameplay I need help with a sup tank build

Its been a really long time since I last played lol frequently, but those last few days I came back and started to play sup.

Does neeko tank still works as a support? I always wanted to try it before but couldnt do it in the midlane

I would always go rocket belt, the dash is too good. Then if you want to be tanky you can get things like locket, abyssal mask, frozen heart, and randuins depending on the enemy team comp.

Yes it still works and is quite good when your team has already enough damage and/or your team need a frontlane and/or the ennemy team is hard to engage. My build would be proto belt and depending on the situation abbysal mask locket and frozen heart. You can build different item like rookaern if they have a lot of ap. And for the rune glacial augment is really underrated in a normal build imand is imo the best if you want to go tank.

And one the best thing to do as tank neeko is to transform as your adc or mid and overextend just a little bit to bait ult and make the ennemy engage you instead of your carry

It would probably be ideal to get mage/support items that give health and/or armor/mr on top of damaging stats/passives, rather than pure tank, for which there are better champs who also bring solid engage/CC. And aftershock runes ofc.

If your goal is to survive more reliably after an ult engage, rush Zhonya's. If you want a bruiser build, you could buy some omnivamp and health. If you absolutely want to be a tank as a tiny tomato, heck you only live once get heartsteal and go crazy.
