Last time I saw a frozen heart

Was over 3 months ago. Not even joking. Three whole months since I've seen an item.

Maybe it needs a change?

It does not give any hp, and pretty much every single top laner, and their moms build black cleaver now, on top of having some built in armor pen in their kits, so it's just too inneficient to ever build it, and if your going for a raw armor item, later on thornmail is usually the go to for me, because it's cheaper and also givess the benefit of making adc kill themselfes.

That's surprising considering how popular Yasuo and Vayne are. It's a must-build for me on Nasus and it's really strong vs auto-attack based champions. I see XinZhao MasterYi Yasuo Vayne Tryndamere , while I'm playing a bruiser or tank, I'm building it no question. I get the slightest excuse to build it and I build it. I really love that item.

For most champions item 3143 is just straight up better when it comes to selfish stats and yeah you don't have the Aura... but if champions like that are attacking your squishy champions they will probably die Frozen heart aura or not... -10% damage from crits is also quite powerful Reducing crits from 200% AD down to 180% or from 250% down to 225%

Also Frozen Heart doesn't actually work against Yi while he has his ult active

Interesting. I haven't done the math but I would guess that Frozen Heart gives more effective health vs physical damage than Randuin's. I donno, I just feel more solid with Frozen Heart than Randuin's.

I am pretty sure Randuins makes you more durable most of the time giving +500 hp +10% reduced damage from crits BUT 30 less armor

especially so if the enemy has LW/Black cleaver as those items make armor less effective (and armor and the attack speed slow are the only defensive stats frozen heart gives)

Frozen heart does give 20% CDR which can make you more durable depending on defensive abilities and Frozen heart is also 200 gold cheaper... that is about 10 armor worth of gold

item 3110 the effect is quite powerful by reducing enemy AA dps by up to 15% (less if they have auto attack resets or don't have full up time on auto attacks because of moving/CC or such)

However item 3143 is mostly just a better option when it comes to selfish stats... and the Aura while potentially powerful doesn't usually help much at least not squishy allies as they die so quickly regardless of -15% AA dps or not (it doesn't have any effect on the burst though as it just increase the time between the first and second auto attack if the enemy doesn't have an AA reset)
