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.

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

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.

This Pro Viego Jungle Path is a leashless Raptor start that focuses on a full clear. Unlock (Q) BLADE OF THE RUINED KING at level one and after clearing Raptors go ahead and unlock (W) SPECTRAL MAW. The great area of effect from (Q) BLADE OF THE RUINED KING is what allows you to easily kill Krugs at level two and then do the Red Brambleback next. Now you'll be level three, unlocking (E) HARROWED PATH. Proceed to kill Murk Wolves, Blue Buff and the Gromp. At level four you will upgrade (Q) BLADE OF THE RUINED KING and head over to the river to clear the Rift Scuttler. Having the Red Buff early on improves the initial clear speed but the Red Buff slowly starts wearing off when this clear is complete. This is why you'll rush to kill the Rift Scuttler and try to duel with the enemy jungler or gank a lane while the Red Buff is still active as it increases your chances of success.
This Viego Jungle clear can adapt to many situations which makes it very popular on Viego. If you'd like to gank bot/top lane at level three, path Raptors → Red Brambleback → Krugs → Gank instead.

Wild Rift VIEGO Video
Watch here!Once ruler of a long-lost kingdom, Viego perished over a thousand years ago when his attempt to bring his wife back from the dead triggered the magical catastrophe known as the Ruination. Transformed into a powerful, unliving wraith tortured by an obsessive longing for his centuries-dead queen, Viego now stands as the Ruined King, controlling the deadly Harrowings as he scours Runeterra for anything that might one day restore her, and destroying all in his path as the Black Mist pours endlessly from his cruel, broken heart.
