Is the combination of warmogs and atmas still viable?

I don't see anyone building them anymore. Why is this? Wasn't atmogs a good choice in the past?

In S2 it was good because Warmog's Armor used to scale in health with minion kills and Atma's Impaler had a higher ratio of health to AD. Basically the combination made every bruiser walk around with nearly 4k health and 200AD with the two items alone.


It was pretty much staple and it needed to go.

Now... it's doable? On certain bruisers that actually use crit... like Gangplank and Garen, but I'd hardly say it's worth doing.

Ah okay, thank you for your response.

I actually do build atmogs on Gangplank for the last two items.

Personally, I'd just build a Statikk Shiv somewhere on GP. Crit+mobility. Procs on Parrrley. It's a pretty beast item on him imo.

He also has naturally high health and can often get away with getting better defensive items like Iceborn Gauntlet (Which also procs on his Q)

Ah yes, statikk is always my first item on GP. I didn't know that Iceborn Gauntlet proc'd his q, so i definitely need to try that out. Again, thank you for your response.

GP and Garen are pretty much the only champs indeed who put Atma's Impaler to good use. However, Warmogs itself took some heavy nerfs.

Yes, I completely agree.

I'm guessing critical strike chance isn't good on most tanks, apart from garen as you said. Thank you both again :p.
Sig Shop

Thanks to XIAOWIRIAMU for this (sexy) sig :3.
