I honestly don't think I've ever seen someone running it, is it really just that bad? I mean tanks could probably get max stats on it through assists.

My understanding is:

It's not bad but, the only people who would build it are tanks and they tend to die a lot. There's not much potential for keeping stacks there.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

It's an underpowered stacking item. Stacking items are bad enough as it is, so don't bother with it..

The two champions I have seen build Leviathan are Soraka and Shen. Shen with full/any stacks is hard as hell to kill.

Soraka with full stacks?

The passive is worth,( 100/ (85/(resist+100) )-100 -resist

If you aren't sure you can stack it, it's not worth it. (Just buy a Giant's Belt yo.)

It becomes worth 50 resistance once you have 184 of a resistance.

Speaking of Soraka, it's only worth 31 armor and 25 magic resistance. (I.E. Aegis is better.)

If you had both, it would be worth 36 armor, and 32 magic resistance, so it would be worth 560g+493g+2116g, a total of 3169g.

As a comparison, Warmog's Armor is worth 3536g without factoring in the health regen.

nice to see some solid math behind not using it, but where'd you get that equation?

Made it up.

Basically, it's a modified Armor/MR formula, where all damage incoming is reduced by 15%.

Why would you get Leviathan? The ones that find it most useful are tanks. A tank's job is to put his life on the line for his carries. Thus you SHOULD be dying more than any other character on your team.
