I thought we've already gone over this topic like 40 pages ago? Randuins is better on those that dive on AD carries, mostly because ad carries are often required target/kite those who dive on them. While FH is better for those that are trying to create a tank line, and aren't primary targets for ad carry.

Randuins is usually better for junglers and FH is for supports or certain matchups top lane.

Randuins gives you great sticking power especially when it comes to whether or not the enemy AD can attack you while kiting you (so irelia loves it, she doesn't want to be kited after Qing onto someone and wailing on them with W), whereas FH enhances any caster-style features of your kit with its huge amount of CDR. (like WW wanting to spam Q as much as possible during a fight, or nautilus using all the CC that's already in his kit even MORE often.)

Maybe he means support style junglers? like nunu/maokai?

Blitz LOOOOOVE frozen heart.

Given the nerfs that Randuins had since its OP time, I think that people are generally undervaluing FH. Glacial is actually a great midgame item, and HoG just got nerfed so the buildup is somewhat smoother. The CDR is usefull on almost everyone (unless they are maxed) and the armor it gives more than outweighs the extra health on Randuins (given that you would get hp from eg. phage).

Randiuns is still crazy strong tho, but if you can't use the active (for whatever reason) FH is simply a better item imo.

I don't know about that. If you have a very good slow already, it somewhat diminishes the slow portion of Randuin's, wouldn't it? And FH has more armor (lacking the health, of course), along with it's AS debuff being constant rather than having a proc/on use.

I could see both arguments, but these guys are probably right, Randuin's is generally better most of the time.


What? Frozen heart is usually better, but if you're not using half the stats on it it's not going to be..

No I meant true supports bot lane. They can't reliably build it unless the game is 40 minutes long or they steal a bunch of kills, but FH is not a critical item in most games.

Randuin's on the other hand is an amazing item that should be built on most junglers and some top laners. Still doesn't change the fact that FH is situationally better in some top lane matchups and that FH is much better on supports than the other roles.

so what we're saying is that it's situational. pretty deep.


hilarious new bug: been smurfing, playing gp. built a philo stone when my pc bsods (it does that sometimes). relog, game crashes mid-loading. relog again, get in fine, except my philo stone is now a doran's blade. description is that of doran's, but in inventory it has the green outline philo has since new patch. and says it sells for 400. I get doran's stats as well. however, in end game screen and match history it shows a philo. is this new?

also apparently LoL doesn't even save your screenshots. annoying that such basic functionality is missing. or that to log out I need to close the entire game. that one gets me every time.

The real question is, why are you still buying HoG after the nerf?

I don't understand how FH is better on support when it a) overspends on stats that aren't well-rounded and b) will probably over-cap CDR for a support that is already building Shurelya's.

FH gives extremely lopsided stats, and needs to be complemented with other items to make it smooth to buy/use. This is not desireable for a support who do not have the gold to commit to other items.

It's probably just a glitch. I don't know enough about how the code is set up, but probably at some point during the buying/setup, a bit of data got flip-flopped and it registered a different item being bought. Things happen when data flow is interrupted like that.

The game displays other items sometimes when you dc, just a visual bug.

Frozen Heart is too important an item to be waiting on your support to build it. It reduces the damage output of every enemy auto-attacker by 20%.

IMO every team should aim to have a Frozen Heart completed by 30 minutes. Whether it's the top laner, the jungler, or in rare cases the mid laner, someone needs to buy that item.
