There is no armor + mana regen item.

So I was playing Malphite against ai and realized that in order to fix my surprisingly big mana problem, I was being recommended to build item 3001. This put a frown on my face. I wanted to build nothing but armor for my particular game.

So I came up with a solution. My solution is that item 3010 should build into three possible items: item 3027 item 3001, and... a reworked item 3143.

Because currently, Omen seems a bit in a confused state. All of its passives overlap with other more popular items, except of course for the crit reduction passive. The slow overlaps with item 3800, and the cold steel passive overlaps with item 3075. So poor omen is rather unpopular right now and not many tanks build it except maybe as a 5th (or 6th?) item.

The new omen could build from something like item 3010 and item 3082, or something roughly similar. It would become a good option for mana-hungry tanks who want to start with armor rather than MR or AP.

Yeah, considering tanks are pigonholed in lane to build one resist or the other it seems fair to make a armor cata item.

Frozen Heart or Iceborn Gauntlet? I think it's ok to get those early if you are up against little magic damage.

If you want to build nothing but armor then get iceborn or frozen heart? Depending on whether you want a more offensive or defensive focused build. Also Abyssal increases the damage you do thanks to its passive
