APC KOG'MAW Counter Items
We have prepared a list of items and spells that will help counter APC KOG'MAW in a given situation. Buy items wisely, only if it is really necessary for a specific situation!
Armor
Items that reduce Auto Attacks (AA) / Physical Damage.
Plated Steelcaps
Reduces damage from champion attacks +150 Max Health +20 Armor +45 Move Speed
Block: Reduces damage from champion attacks by 10%. 1200
Plated Steelcaps TIPS: These boots provide reliable protection against champions who rely heavily on basic attacks. They increase your Health and Armor, while the passive further reduces damage taken from enemy champion attacks. An excellent choice against marksmen, AD fighters, and other auto-attack-focused champions.
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.
Entwine: Apply 50% Grievous Wounds to enemy champions for 3 second(s) when stuck by their attacks or dealing damage to them.
Grievous Wounds reduces the effectiveness of Healing and Regeneration effects. 2700
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 +4% Movement 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
Reduces enemy Attack Speed +80 Armor +400 Max Mana +20 Ability Haste
Winter's Caress: Reduce the Attack Speed of enemy champions within 650 units of you by 25%. 2550
Frozen Heart TIPS: This item combines a large amount of Armor, additional Mana, and Ability Haste, providing strong protection against physical damage. Nearby enemy champions have their Attack Speed reduced, making it especially effective against marksmen and other opponents who rely heavily on frequent basic attacks. An excellent choice for tanks and fighters against attack-focused team compositions.

Dawnshroud TIPS: This item is great for tanks and support initiators. When you immobilize an enemy or are immobilized near foes, it reveals nearby champions, deals an explosive burst of magic damage, and briefly boosts your defenses. Perfect for zone control, reliable engages, and countering enemy dive attempts.
Amaranth's Twinguard
In-combat durability +300 Max Health +50 Armor +50 Magic Resistance
Endurance: Gain 1 stacks of Endurance every 1 seconds while in combat with enemy champions (max 5 stacks). At maximum stacks, gain 20% size, 20% Tenacity, and increase Armor by 30% and Magic Resistance by 30% until out of combat with champion. 3200
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 +600 Max Health +20 Ability Haste
Lifeline: Damage that puts you under 30% grants bonus max Health equal to 200–300 bonus Health for 5s. Additionally gain 10% Movement Speed and 20% Tenacity and increase in size by 10% for 5s. During this time, restore (200–400 () + 120 Armor+ 120% Magic Resistance+ 15) Health. (70s Cooldown) 2550
Mantle of the Twelfth Hour TIPS: This item provides a large amount of Health and Ability Haste, significantly improving overall durability. When Health drops to a critical level, it temporarily increases maximum Health, restores Health, and grants additional Movement Speed and Tenacity, helping you survive dangerous situations and stay in the fight. Especially effective for tanks and fighters who spend extended periods in the middle of combat.
Unending Despair
Increases tanks' sustain in teamfights +300 Max Health +40 Armor +40 Magic Resistance +10 Ability Haste
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.

Wild Rift KOG'MAW Video
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.
