When Should You Build Winter's Approach?
Build Winter's Approach when a mana-using tank can stack Tear consistently and convert maximum Mana into Health and repeated ability uptime.
- Best on
- Mana-hungry tanks and control frontliners that frequently cast, attack, or absorb champion damage.
- Good against
- Good in scaling and attrition games; poor into early aggression that punishes its delayed transformation and on champions without reliable slows or immobilization.
- When to buy it
- Start Tear early and complete Winter's Approach early enough to reach Fimbulwinter before major mid-game fights.
