Why is this page advising a ap/ad/tank hybrid janna? Building Janna with RoA, Frozen heart, manamune and Phantom dancer is like... the most weird build you could come up with.

Ap janna has 2 offensive spells but one of them probably won't deal damage to champions because you want to charge it up and the other one is a single target spell. Both are awesome supportive abilities Even though Janna's ult has potential with ap, it's not really good, as you'll just get silenced/stunned/taunted/knocked up or back or just assassinated. And the shield... well most of the time you want to put it on the ad carry because it gives him a ton of ad. Most of the tiem the ad carry will be in a rather safe position (well eh should be) so that a big shield doesn't make much of a difference.

And to those who say ad janna has potential: The shield is not a self-steroid. You can put it on someone else. Someone with spells scaling with AD. Someone with better base as. Someone with self-steroids. Someone with more range. Don't tell me that support ashe + ad carry janna is superior to ad carry ashe + support janna. Ashe has better base attack speed, those scaling better with attack speed, she has a lot more range and a skill scaling with ad. And every other ad carry has even better reasons to be an ad carry instead of a support.
