This is very fun AND interactive. You likey? Me likey. ;)

To the Devs

Please don't nerf these items since this build is dummy big OP Big Brained 9k.

Final Build Details

I highly suggest that if you are up against more magic damage type gods, rather than building Glad Shield, build either Runic or Genjis. Of course there is a bit of flexibility, but the goal of this build isn't really to be tanky with defense, it's to take advantage of the HP and HP5 items in the game with some lifesteal for a bit of extra oomph cuz Than things.

Maybe, maybe not. One thing I do know is that Assassin's Blessing was removed from the game. As for the builds themselves, Than isn't really a solo lane god. If you do decide to play him there, you'd be better off with Breastplate of Valor than Sovereignty. Personally I think the builds listed here need some serious improvement before they can be recommended, "lazy" or not.

It is a bit lazily done since I don't have a computer available to create the guide on.

He can run people down in solo early but he isn't a meta pick at all.
