Zz'Rot Portal on Tanks

[quote=Re4XN]Hello, as usual I've been playing [[Dr. Mundo]] and some guy commented on my guide I should try to build [[Zz'Rot Portal]] on him (I used to a long time ago, then I forgot about it's existance). I tested it in a game and it really makes your splitpushing, wave control and other things better. That said, do you think it is a viable item on [[Dr. Mundo]] and/or other tanks (like [[braum]] for instance)? If so, when should I build it? In the game I played I buit it right after my [[sunfire cape]] and [[mercury's treads]] and it worked just fine.[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]I just feel like the item takes up a slot that could be used for something else. It's a really tough item, to balance: better stats would mean it'd be a must buy because of the utility + tankyness it'd provide, but I think current stats are just ok for teamfighting :/ I mean, tanks are about soaking up damage, I really need the best stat providers out there. I'd say this is a good option if you're snowballing and wanna create harder map pressure.[/quote]

[quote=terrorearl]Great pick when you are against hyper ap team (as it gives you tons of mr) and when you wanna splitpush or force 5v4s but when you are more group oriented toplaner, try banner of command. It creates powerful pushing minion and its awesome combined with baron buff. Usually i dont get the portal, rarely taking it[/quote]

[quote=Re4XN]Why is it good vs Hyper AP team? Against hyper AP team I just pick up a [[locket of the iron solari]] on [[Dr. Mundo]], it is way better and everyone on my team benefits from it. Besides, it also gives you 60 armour, meaning this is the item that gives the most resistances. [[banner of command]] is a waste on top laners, it is generally better on supports and even then only if the team is ahead, because there are way better items to build. I tested the [[zz'rot portal]] on [[dr. mundo]] today, and despite losing the game in the end, I managed to stall it for a good amount of time with the help of the Voidgate. Destroying turrets has never been so easy and a 100% chance that the lane is going to push in your favour is great for pressure. Also, what do you mean with "group oriented"?[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]I would generally say [[banner of command]] is way more usefull if you can make use out of the AP Scaling. I don't know why no team by now abused 5 man [[banner of command]] big wave pushing, similar back in time with [[promote]]. Especially because the current version is even stronger.[/quote]

The good about banner is that AP-Focused teams have a hard time dealing with the promoted minion, since it's immune to ap damage. It helps relieve pressure on a lane/pressure it, and the aura is still there.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]Don't build it.[/quote]

[quote=Re4XN][quote=Vynertje]Don't build it.[/quote] The [[Zz'Rot Portal]] or the [[Banner of Command]]? xD Because ZzzzSSDacsahdnkkgjsng'Rot isn't actually a bad item.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]For tanks, neither one is a good buy. Zz'Rot would be decent if the active was actually slightly useful.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]If you only want resistances, you have to make the decision between [[Zz'Rot Portal]] and [[guardian angel]], guess which item is most of the time superior. But, oh well: http://www.leagueoflegendsmath.com/Must_Reads/Yorick_Guide.html[/quote]
