When to Pick Tank Emblem
Decision cues for when this emblem beats the alternatives.
Bread and butter for every main tank, roamer, and durable support. Engage-focused tanks like Tigreal, Atlas, and Khufra care more about surviving the first 3 seconds of a fight than dealing damage, and this emblem buys that time.
Consider dropping to Support Emblem instead if your team needs more cooldown on rotations (roaming Mathilda, Angela) or if you're a peel-only tank who never initiates.
