Yo I like your idea of Effective Health Points, but I think you got the math wrong.

Since armor and magic resistance (call it X) follows the rule that damage reduction is X/(X+100) It means that your first point of armor or magic resistance is going to work in your formula, 1/101 is about 1% so you should have 1% more effective health. But by the time you have 100 armor 100/200 = 50% each point of armor is now half as effective, those first points of armor or Magic resistance do more than later ones. Also for your effective health you assume that all damage is going to be physical int eh case of armor and magic in the case of MR and it usually isn't so I would cut the bonus health in half assuming damage comes about 50/50 from physical and Magical.

I agree, the math isn't correct.

This guide is great! +1

I would include in the protect allies section another subsection on how to distract / peel enemies off of allies, like Leona's Q or E, or Shen's taunt. Just my 2 cents!

Can't. Tell. What. Game.

I enjoyed reading this guide...Made me chuckle a few times :3 Nice work and thanks a bunch! +1

I've never known that cho gath got so easy build. Thanks.

On this build masteries 9/21/0 are also nice (especially when you are vs Jayce)

Refreshed and updated a bit and corrected the problem people pointed out!

Overall the point is not who is in the lane side or jungle side, but the information is the point of the guides.

Thanks for the support and feedback guys!

Awesome guide!!! Really great for everyone that enjoy tanking as much as i do! +1!

Awesome guide but unsure why you need Summoner's Wrath for Malphite jungle as he uses smite and flash and Summoner's Wrath does't buff any of them so i feel it is a wasted mastery. Not sure if it is the case in any of the others but spotted it there.

A great guide but in my opinion you should add alistar in the lane tanks.

Might wanna fix the malphite jungle build where philostone is a core item versus merc threads O_O, btw +1 for a beast tank guide and for the "thou and thy's" :)

Thanks for the comments guys, I'll fix the little pics here soon.

@biodot: That effective health is for that item only. I assume adding up each effective health item will give you the total effective health your character has then you can spilt it between physical and magical.
