one of your arguments is that the censer itself provides no defensive bonus. Please then explain to me how a stronger heal, that can be used more often, and the ability to reposition more quickly is not defensive. Just because an item doesnt give hard-defensive stats doesnt make the item itself non-defensive, it depends on whom it is placed. Every stat in the censer is used by alistar quite well, due to his kit, the extra damage on q and w are sidenotes to the increased heal the mana regen for the moe consistant use of his heal, and the passive is an amzing pressure and pushing utility. you have to think more open minded about what a support (tank or otherwise) can do having one utility item like censer doesnt negate ones ability to tank, alistar is going to be meat fridge either way.
