well warden can get aoe spell/physical debuff through subteranian assault so there's no reason you couldn't go all magic if you wanted though you would have to use the undaunted taunt and the frost staff.
however youll likely end up with s&b backbar anyway so it wont really matter.
for a warden tank I would say argonian is the best race
my personal armor choices would be plague doctor and magicka furnace.

Why Magicka furnace? instead can have set like ebon/imperium/powerful assault/dragon guard to buff group.
Even alternation mastery is better choice then Magicka Furnace.

Tanking is a very specific job. Wardens are jack of all trades master of none.
I kept my Orc Warden Stam DPS for Battlegrounds and lol.

Isn't that a bit discouraging, not to say elitist sounding, that only 1 class can make an acceptable tank, 1 an acceptable healer, and 1 or 2 an acceptable DPS? Although, might feel more bitter towards ESO than you for stating the possible obvious...
But... aren't we supposed to be playing for like... actual "fun", you know? Are "fun" and being "effective" mutually exclusive in nowadays MMO's endgame? :_(
Hybrid isnt a thing and most likely will never be. Go magicka.

The only time a class is completely unviable in tank, dps, or healer, is when a specific group is set up in such a way it's not congruent with said build - which only occurs in the competitive trial guilds - in which case you'd be formed to their upmost specs. I feel all classes can do all jobs if proper preparation has occurred or you're not going for top leaderboards
