Item stats

The raw statistics the item grants, as listed in the game data for the current patch, next to its total cost and sell price shown above.

Passive and active effects are not turned into numbers here: two items with the same lines can play very differently once their passives are taken into account.

Build path

The components this item is built from, and the items it can be upgraded into, taken from the game's recipe data for the current patch.

Each icon links to the item page. The gold cost of the finished item is the sum of its components plus a combine cost, which is why buying components first never costs more than saving up.

Best win rate champions

The champions with the highest win rate when they buy this item on the current patch, with their main role and the share of their games where they build it (pick rate).

A high win rate with a low pick rate often means a niche build that works in specific games, or simply a small sample. The safest reads are the lines where both figures are high: the item is both common and effective on that champion.
