Overall Tankiest Hero
A Combination of Health, Armour, Escapability, Teamfight Tankability/Relevance

Include all these things and Consider the Hero to be Maxed in Items and Levels

Personally Chaos Knight does these all for me.

Not sure, it's either Chaos knight, Wraith king or Dragon knight (maybe pudge?)

Chaos = very tanky, illusions do full damage (so you could do up to x4 damage per attack), he is also pretty fast and with armlets + heart and 4 illusions he is pretty badass, not forgetting the crit chance and stun.
King = Pretty tanky late game and has his ult, which is literally a life saver.
Good team figes with his aura and adverage crit damage
Dragon knight = Passive that gives armour + hp, would probably call him the least tanky of the 4.
Pudge = I say him because his flesh heap skill gives him tons of hp if he snowballs, apart from his ult which stuns + damages not too much team playability.

One of those 4 I reckon.

To some extent i agree but he heavily depends on getting some CS or kills to make that passive work for him. His Decay is Crazy though and he is pretty tanky and relevant overall

That being said Leigon might be a bet, she is kind of tanky but if you get enough duels I have seen her end game with 202+302

I agree with DK But I feel if Wraith King dies late game, he is already in a bad spot since he has SO much survivability with his aura and Reincarnation But really if you die once it is already an indication that you are not really doing the work needed from you and unless the enemy team is on the run i feel that reincarnate isnt the best especially if he gets isolated which happens a lot

Axe late game is negligable and Legion i agree is pretty tanky especially without that double attack lifesteal passive

The only thing I found axe good for is chaining ability 2 on a fast hero like buttseeker and using my ult on him when I close in - hes tanky, espically with helix but I can think of better heros.
Also he gets focused like crazy late game

Timbersaw- Not really his living armour is great early and mid and his really good teamfight but compare to a guy like DK he doesnt really do it.

Bristle-Yes but his tankiness is really mid-game oriented

Medusa- Interesting choice but her mana Shield is really crazy Definitely a tankier hard carry compared to the likes of Faceless
