Plated Steelcaps
Reduces damage from champion attacks +150 Max Health +20 Armor +45 Move Speed 1200
Plated Steelcaps TIPS: These boots provide reliable protection against physical damage, especially from enemy basic attacks.

Amaranth's Twinguard TIPS: This item is perfect for champions who spend a lot of time in the thick of fights and need extra durability and crowd control resistance. It provides bonuses to armor and magic resistance.

Due to its versatile utility, this item is one of the most popular defensive choices in the game and is used by the majority of tanks, fighters, and other classes.

Anguish: Every 4 second(s) while in combat with a champion, deal 3% of your max Health as magic damage to nearby champions and heal for 250% of the damage dealt. Anguish is unaffected by Item Ability Haste. 3000
Unending Despair TIPS: This item turns you into a self-sustaining frontline: while fighting you periodically deal magic damage around you and heal for a portion of that damage. Great for tanks and frontliners — it helps you soak focus, remain in the heart of fights longer, and excel in extended team engagements. Less effective in very short burst trades or on champions that avoid standing in the center of combat.

Plated Steelcaps
Reduces damage from champion attacks +150 Max Health +20 Armor +45 Move Speed 1200
Plated Steelcaps TIPS: These boots provide reliable protection against physical damage, especially from enemy basic attacks. The bonus Armor, Health, and movement speed improve your durability, allowing you to survive longer against marksmen and AD fighters. They are an excellent choice against teams that rely heavily on auto attacks for their damage.
Randuin's Omen
Counters Critical Strike Damage +400 Max Health +75 Armor
Resilience: Critically Struck deal 30% less damage to you.
Countercurrent: Gain 1 stacks of Countercurrent when Critically Struck by physical damage. Each stuck grants 5% Movement Speed and 5% slow resist. Max 4 stacks. 2800
Randuin's Omen TIPS: This item is built to counter crit-heavy builds. It provides a large health pool and armor while reducing damage from critical strikes, making you much tougher in head-on engagements. When you are critically struck, you gain stacks that boost your movement and slow resistance, helping you hold position and control fight spacing. — Perfect for tanks and bruisers who need to stand up to high-crit auto-attackers and survive extended teamfights.
Thornmail
Reflects damage and reduces enemy healing +200 Max Health +75 Armor
Thorns: When struck by an attack, deal 20 + 6% bonus Armor + 1% bonus Health magic damage to the attacker.

Thornmail TIPS: This item reflects a portion of incoming physical damage back to attackers as magic damage and applies an effect that reduces enemy healing effectiveness. A strong pick versus teams with heavy auto-attack damage and sustain — ideal for tanks and bruisers who need to absorb focus and cut down opponent healing.
Dead Man's Plate
Increases Movement Speed +350 Max Health +70 Armor
Relentless: +5% Move Speed.
Momentum: Moving builds Momentum, granting up to 40 Move Speed at 100 stacks. Attacking removes all Momentum. Stacks decay when movement is impaired.
Crushing Blow: Attacks deal up to 100 bonus magic damage based on Momentum removed. Melee attacks with max Momentum slows by 75% for 1 second. 2800
Dead Man's Plate TIPS: This item provides a substantial boost to health and armor, and its “Momentum” passive builds movement speed as you move—up to a cap—until you land an attack, which then triggers “Crushing Blow”, dealing bonus magic damage based on the momentum removed and slowing enemies at full stacks. This makes it an excellent choice for tanks and bruisers who need extra mobility to engage quickly and sustain through fights. Tips: ideal for champions who need to close distance and absorb damage; pairs extremely well with Spellblade items (e.g., Divine Sunderer) for additional burst damage on engage.

Frozen Heart TIPS: This item is ideal for tanks and support champions who need to slow enemy attack speed and maintain a healthy mana pool. It provides substantial bonuses to armor, mana, and ability haste. The “Winter’s Caress” passive applies up to four stacks of Chill on enemy champions through your basic attacks, abilities, or any magic damage they take—each stack slows their attack speed by 9%, up to 36% at full stacks.

Amaranth's Twinguard TIPS: This item is perfect for champions who spend a lot of time in the thick of fights and need extra durability and crowd control resistance. It provides bonuses to armor and magic resistance. The “Endurance” passive stacks up to five times during combat, and at full stacks you increase in size, gain enhanced tenacity, and receive bonus armor and magic resistance until you exit combat. This allows you to stay in the frontline longer and withstand enemy attacks more effectively. Due to its versatile utility, this item is one of the most popular defensive choices in the game and is used by the majority of tanks, fighters, and other classes.
Mantle of the Twelfth Hour
Increases max Health when your Health is low +200 Max Health +40 Armor +40 Magic Resistance
Lifeline: Damage that puts you under 35%, grants bonus max Health equal to 180 + 45% bonus health for 3 seconds, and provides 50% Slow Resistance and 30 Movement Speed for 3 seconds. (70s Cooldown) 2900
Mantle of the Twelfth Hour TIPS: This item is perfect for champions who find themselves on the brink of death and need an instant survivability boost. When you take damage that drops you below 35% health, you gain bonus maximum health, significant movement speed, and high slow resistance for a short duration. This gives you the chance to escape danger or stay in the fight. The item is especially effective for tanks and bruisers who need to endure critical moments while retaining mobility at low health.
Unending Despair
Increases tanks' sustain in teamfights +200 Max Health +45 Armor +45 Magic Resistance
Anguish: Every 4 second(s) while in combat with a champion, deal 3% of your max Health as magic damage to nearby champions and heal for 250% of the damage dealt. Anguish is unaffected by Item Ability Haste. 3000
Unending Despair TIPS: This item turns you into a self-sustaining frontline: while fighting you periodically deal magic damage around you and heal for a portion of that damage. Great for tanks and frontliners — it helps you soak focus, remain in the heart of fights longer, and excel in extended team engagements. Less effective in very short burst trades or on champions that avoid standing in the center of combat.

Watch here!Belched forth from a rotting Void incursion deep in the wastelands of Icathia, Kog'Maw is an inquisitive yet putrid creature with a caustic, gaping mouth. This particular Void-spawn needs to gnaw and drool on anything within reach to truly understand it. Though not inherently evil, Kog'Maw's beguiling naiveté is dangerous, as it often precedes a feeding frenzy—not for sustenance, but to satisfy its unending curiosity.
