"You are missing the fact that "Tank" is just a label riot used. What make an actual tank are the items and skills. Throw Galio's shield on Irelia and you got yourself a much better Leona in every way possible."

The people here calling Leona a tank aren't doing it just because Riot arbitrarily labeled her as one. If you can't see why free Armor/MR, tank stats, constant team fight threat, lots of hard CC, and the ability to stick to a carry make someone a tank then the problem is your's and not our's.

Irelia doesn't get Galio's shield so that better tank you describe doesn't exist. Plus, yes, we know, tanky items make Irelia imbalanced.
