Opinions on frozen heart?

y0r1ck··1 votes·1,768 views

Is the item good? It's a counter to attack speed and ad and I think it even works well against ad assassins who want to weave autos into their combos. I've heard that nobody builds this item because it's bad, but it seems ok to me. So what's the consensus on this thing.

Armor barely feels useful (everyone dealing true damage with AA's, remember ?). Even against Jax it's useless

Is that because of conqueror or the item's uselessness? Seems like frozen heart and adaptive helm would allow a duelist to beat jax without conqueror.

Good if you can scale with it well. It's still pretty effective on Taric, who I play a lot, but probably Taric players are among the small population of people that use the item.

On that note, I think we really need a tank item that builds out of item 3070 , so if ppl want to brainstorm improvements...

Would you buy it on alistar vs a full ad team if you had the gold to spare?

Maybe. It really does depend on who, not just "AD or AP." But if I'm looking at a late game, sixth item and they have more than 2 champs that rely heavily on attack speed, probably yes.

It used to be good when not every champion has true damage, max health damage, and stacking speed + more max helath damage.

Depends on who you're using; Frozen Heart is best on tanks who like 20% cdr and lost of mana and armor, and a few fighters who wish to duel. I know Malph, Nasus, and Ornn are prime candidates for it as the situation demands.

So basically it's situational

Ok yeah Ohmwrecker is barely used but Frozen Heart is barely ever seen,it was WAY more common in every build back in season 2 though.

It's only good if you're against like 3 auto attackers

The problem with frozen heart is that it doesn't give HP which helps your armour scale a lot better, which means while fighting that tryndamere might be a little easier that zed is still probably going to blow you up because you still have the same amount of hp so ignite is still effective against you

With so much true damage now, it feels like a worthless item in most circumstances.

How is it bad ?

It's a really good 2nd/3rd item for amumu cause he uses all the stats very well. If they have a lot of AD I usually get it instead of abyssal mask 2nd. Amumu item 3110
