Did some Lethality math.

Had some fun with Lethality math. This is purely in the spirit of flat reduction, not %. With a: item 3142 item 3147 item 3814 item 3134

You can get 60 Flat Armour Penetration vs a lv 18 target.

With Marks & Quints of Lethality as well as the Precision Mastery you can push this all the way up to 92.5 Lethality.

Why stop there though? We have some champions we can throw into the mix.

Corki's E can reduce armour by up to 40. Nasus's E can do the same! Rammus isn't one to be left out though and can reduce armour by a flat 30 with his taunt.

Y'know, just in case you wanted to draft a comp that can ignore 202.5 armour for a few seconds and (only) 92.5 the rest of the time.

Figured this post would amuse someone as much as it made me cry.

Edit: My bad guys, throw in summoner 3 for an extra 10 armour pen. That totals us to 212.5 flat armour reduction. Remember though, for the 50% of tanks that actually buy more than that % reduction is available to purchase in 4 different forms and one of those (aka the component for 2 others) is getting buffed! Remember all that % applies before flat so with just a last whisper they will soon have to have over 308 armour for you to not reduce them to 0 with just that. Currently you actually have to upgrade the item though.

Also is it just me or is it sad there are more lethality items than there are champions with flat armour reduction in their kits?

Yes. Riot made a big mistake buffing this stat.

Urgot E shreds armour too if you feel like throwing that into the math blender.

edit: Although I guess that might be %. Urgot isn't exactly someone I'm an expert on.

with black cleaver,youmuus,edge of night, lord dominiks, mf ulti can get 75% + 40 lethality, which full build mf does 6000 damage which can freaking wreck anything that's not a full stack full hp chogath.

Lol so with those 4 items plus the other shit you said, thats's true damage to any champ who doesn't buy 1 armor piece.

Also wow I'm awful, I have a 70+% win rate on Rammus over 10 games this year on Rammus in ranked and I did not know his Taunt lowered armored.

I get 83.... (technically 82.5 but it says 83 in game) not sure where you got that extra 10
