Zonyah's VS Archangels. Which is the Better Defensive item?

Soo, recently, ive been thinking. Which item is the better defensive item?

We have archangels, which gives an active shield, a F**kton of mana, some decent AP which scales from other items, Also, doesn't lock you in place while enemies flood in around you.

The other, gives good ap, some armor, and an active which Prevents all damage/stuff, which helps survive teamfights IF your team is winning. buut, with stasis, comes the problem of "if i use it i probably will be surounded"

insert picture of weak-looking lux surrounded by kayn, zed, and talon cuz she used zonyah's too early.

Both aren't good, that shield isn't enough to counter assassins burst and Zhonia is just , it has some good time but yeah if my team is losing , the item is a bad idea ,and I usually find myself on a Cait trap or Zoe bubble

Zhonyas is good for champions with channels like Swain Anivia Fiddlesticks so they can churn out damage while never dying. Seraphs is good for champions that need to constantly be moving and dealing damage like Cassiopeia Veigar Ziggs.

But you can definitely afford to build both on most champions.

Zhonya's is a really bad item. It has a long cooldown and you usually die as soon as the stasis ends anway. It gives little AP and useless armor. (ADC's will 2 shot you anyway.) I never build that item if I'm not have to. I'm surprised when I see they didn't even touch it in AP items rework.

It depends on how the enemy's damage pattern is. Zhonya's is really good if it is delayed damage or easy to predict.

Depends on matchup really, i find myself auto rushing Zhonyas against a Fizz/Zed for example.
