There are 5 upgradable tank-viable items via ornn

Edit: i said bc and tf are tank VIABLE items, not tank items. Tanks can build them.

There are 5 upgradable items that tanks can build: item 3383 item 3380 item 3384 item 3373 item 3379

Mages have one: item 3374 (SR) /item 3385 (TT)

Supports have two: item 3383 item 3382

Assassins have one half: item 3380 (this is only viable on a few assassins)

ADCs have one and a half: item 3371 item 3380 (this is only viable on a few adcs)

Can i get an explanation for this?

I would say it's more of true tanks have 2, fighters have 2, and supports/tanks have another one. Neither triforce or BC are really tank items

Thats true. They arent tank items.

They are still tank-viable items though.

I love your name.

Cleaver isn't a tank item, Tri-force isn't a tank item, and locket was designed to be a support item (but we know how that itemization is being handled atm)

it's more like :

2.5 tank items

2 Diver Items

.5 Assassin Items

2 support items

1.5 Adc Items

It really not as biased when you really look into it for an accurate assessment

Black cleaver and TriForce are rush items for certain Tank and Juggernaut champions who then go full tank. There.

Can you give me a few examples of tanks (as in, the class of champion) who rush Cleaver and/or Triforce.

Also:

If you're going to differentiate Divers and Assassins you need to also separate Tanks and Juggernauts imo

Garen & Nasus were the ones I was thinking of.

Slythion2 votes

neither of those are of the tank-class though, they're both juggernauts

They are late game items. When it comes to the point that you have gold to upgrade a 6th item things have happened. You may need to shoehorn in an item that might not otherwise be optimal. But the stats are awesome and better than anything else in slot. The selection is both varied and fitting a hermetic melee Tank-Bruiser smith.

I just hate that mages have to build Deathcap to make use of Ornn's passive. Like, no one was building it in the first place, and now it's like "build it or make your Ornn look stupid".

Ok sure but why2 votes

The fact that mages don't need Deathcap to do massive amounts of damage in the first place is one of the problems with league rn.

item 3001 is more than viable on any mage with low AP scalings (50% and lower) as a more gold efficient way of increasing damage output, and many of those mages build defensive alongside magic pen.

item 3001 is built on some mages too.
