Official Effects

UNIQUE - SUNDER: Dealing physical damage to a champion reduces their Armor by 6% for 6 seconds, stacking up to 5 times for 30% reduction.

UNIQUE - CHASE: Gain 20 Movement Speed when you deal physical damage, and gain 40 Movement Speed when moving toward enemy champions with 5 Sunder stacks. Ranged champions gain halved values.

When Should You Build Black Cleaver?

Build Black Cleaver when you can apply repeated physical damage and your team benefits from shredding the same target's Armor.

Best on
AD bruisers, ability-based fighters, and physical casters with rapid multi-hit damage.
Good against
Strong into Armor-stacking frontliners and Plated Steelcaps, especially with multiple physical teammates; inefficient for one-shot patterns that cannot stack Sunder.
When to buy it
Often a first or second core item because its balanced stats and teamwide Armor reduction shape early skirmishes.
