Iceborn Gauntlet reads:
UNIQUE – SPELLBLADE: After using an ability, your next basic attack (on-hit) creates an ICY ZONE around the target for 2 seconds. This zone has a size of 190 (+ 45% bonus armor) units. (1.5 second cooldown.)
It should say "radius" instead of "zone".
GroundedEagle452 votesNo zone is the correct English term for this item. Definition of Zone "an area or stretch of land having a particular characteristic"
P1O1 votesbut a zone (same as area) would be in units^2 Either change the term or give the actual formula for the zone/area. Formula for area/zone of a cirkel = π * r^2 , so with the term zone it would have to say:
"This zone has a size of π * (190 (+ 45% bonus armor))^2 units^2 ."
Which is ofcourse totally incomprehensible for most people.

In this scenario it is using the "Stretch of land" part of the definition. You are using the mathematical definition of zone. The only problem here is the which connotation we are using.

I realize that in the description i said: "It should say "radius" instead of "zone".
but what i meant to say was: "It should say "radius" instead of "size".

haha well that explains it! All good
DrCyanide1 votesYou're mistaking the Wiki's item description for the actual in-game description:
UNIQUE Passive - Spellblade:After using an ability, the next basic attack deals bonus physical damage equal to 125% of base Attack Damage in an area and creates an icy zone for 2 seconds that slows Movement Speed by 30% (1.5 second cooldown). Size of zone increases with bonus armor.
"Creates an icy radius" doesn't fit, and "size of radius" would only work if the tip mentioned a radius earlier. The actual description is fine.
