What is a Rod of Atma's build?



The RoA is going to give 12.6 AD. That's more than a

Key items outside of the Rod of Ages and the Atmas:

C List:










1)
Rod of Ages gives champs early game stats that trickle into late game. All around with these champs you get the best mix of early survivability (health), sustainability (mana), and damage (AP). The Rod of Ages can typically be farmed in under 15, 20 if you need an item before it (like a
Sheen), if you don't have it by 30 then you're having huge problems.
For these champs, I believe that the RoA is better than the
Warmog's Armor (but similar) for a couple of reasons. First its two parts are more useful than the Warmog's pieces. Second it gives damage on its own, meaning you can farm it first without much worry about lagging in the early/laning game.
2)
Atma's Impaler gives more defense and converts you into a hybrid character for the midgame. This also allows each of these champions a few extra seconds of tanking turrets and ad's.
3) The rest of the build is going to allow you a good mix of damage and health. Being hard to kill, and able to easily kill opponents is great.
4) Late game your AD will probably give you the edge in most fights, as these champions just don't bring the burst that going full AP will get you, and most of these champions can't cut it as raw AD.
5) This is to hybrids what Atmogs is to Tanky DPS. It is a percentage play strategy. You can go raw AP or raw AD or Tank, but each of these has its easy set counter. Some games you're going to rock as AP
Skarner or AD
Kayle, but others just crash spectacularly. This is good at balancing you out. Keeping your KDR positive and making sure that in every fight you're as useful as possible. You will be very hard to counter like a hybrid, but even harder to kill.

Skarner
Why is this better than:
Raw AP.
You will not find yourself dead all the time. Your damage will not be so dissimilar from Raw AP as you'll be scaling with AD and AP. You'll be able to kill more champs than just the squishes. Madred's Razor +

Top Lane Skarner.
Blue buff and red buff. Jungle creeps keep your Ult CD short.
Tanky DPS.
This is Tanky and DPS and can spike some damage too. If you just buy items like


Cho'Gath
The reason I like the Atmas is because your CD's are long. your abilities are dodgeable, and you can reach the end of your mana supply quickly midgame, so I tend to spend a lot of time auto attacking. AP is affecting

Kayle
This build focuses on making Kayle someone that the enemy doesn't want to kill first all the while dealing out as much debuffing and damage as possible. Her new passive,

The key problem with AD

Once again this rides the fine line between the two and gives a smoother transition from early to late game.

Tried this out. Works great. Makes your ult and E feel definitely worth it. Puts you in the same roll as

Works best in Dominion. Since you're guaranteed to level in the first fight, the catalyst is a nice chunk of hanging around and punching stuff. Also doable in summoners if you're short on AP and beefyness.
