Dead Man's Plate
Tank and movement speed
When Should You Build Dead Man's Plate?
Build Dead Man's Plate when an Armor user needs out-of-combat speed to rotate, engage, and reach ranged targets.
- Best on
- Roaming tanks, juggernauts, and engage supports that initiate with a basic attack.
- Good against
- Strong into physical damage and kite-heavy backlines; Frozen Heart or Randuin's is better when raw anti-DPS defense matters more than access.
- When to buy it
- Often second or third, after a core Health item; buy earlier when movement is the only way to create fights.
