deadmans plate or sunfire

sunfire cape sux on anyone but amumu, even then liandrys/rylais are both better imo and he can get a frozen heart for armor.

A lot of factors go into which one is better including your champion, enemy laner, your play style, your skill, enemy team and your team.

For some champions one will always be better than the other but here is a list of what to get if it is in question.

You are unskilled at last hitting: sunfire Your champion has slow clear and you think laning phase will be long: sunfire You need stronger initiation: deadman's Your team doesn't have burst damage and team fights last a while: sunfire Your adc is getting jumped on by assassins and fighters: deadman's You simply want to travel faster around the map: deadman's You plan on split pushing: sunfire

IMO the speed from deadmans plate is pretty invaluable. On anyone who relies on an initiator or to move around teamfights quickly (pretty much any fighter) the bonus movespeed combined with boots allows you to chase anyone down and secure gold, gives CCless champions some CC, allows you to get to your target easier as an assassin, and as a tank allows you to initiate SO easily with RG. Sunfire right now is I believe more armor but less hp, with the weak damage/sec passive only being good for waveclear . DMP is better for splitpushing as it allows you to easily outrun anyone chasing you, and makes it in general a lot safer too.

Right now i think DMP is far better.
