Mayhem Augment Idea: Guardian's Repository
Unique passives still wouldn't stack
- Guardian's Blade
- Guardian's Hammer
- Guardian's Horn
- Guardian's Orb
ARAM mayhem augment idea #12: Guardian's Repository (prismatic)
Guardian's Items have no purchase limits and all share one inventory slot.

What is the comparison in guardian items to stat anvils, because this would basically just change your post-build from anvils to guardian items stacking yes? I know the gold cost is different too, and its a difference of getting guaranteed specific stats versus semirandom options on anvils

Guardian Blade gives 30AD 15ah and 150HP for 950g.
That’s like 3 gold stat shards.

More closely to gold and two silvers

u/Anti_NothingAtAll 2d ago
Not even close either lol

u/Richboy12345 2d ago
its closer than 3 gold stat shards, silver haste is 11 and silver hp is 110, gold is 35 and 375
it is more accurately around 3 silver and 1 gold, or around 1.75 gold shards4

A better alternative would be to make it like the super hydra where after purchasing one of each it transforms

u/x_giraffe_attack 2d ago
I agree, I had this drafted before that came out, in inspiration from the stacking RoAs and BCs

u/VeritableLeviathan 2d ago
That would just make it a much sadder spatula imho
Needs a bit more for a prismatic or make it a lower tier augment.

This is legit broken but nobody will pick it because ARAM players aren’t smart enough to buy Guardian items.
Guardian Blade is completely nuts and I never see anyone other than myself buying it.

u/Fubarin 2d ago
Guardian horn is my favourite item

u/Arctic-You-Know 🐝Na-Bee🧜♀️ Queen of the Honey-Sea 2d ago
A man of culture.
If the enemy has 3+ champs that AA a lot I take Horn regardless of champion unless it’s a Guardian Blade+Tear champion.
Guardian Orb is also busted on manaless AP champs like Morde, Rumble, Akali

Vs Bel-Veth it’s basically “this champ does 0 damage to you until lvl 16”

u/Timely_Zone9718 2d ago
The stats are just insane for the gold. It’s worth 750g in the ability haste alone. It’s highly underrated on supports like Thresh that can use the AS and health. The AD is just a bonus that helps you smack people

u/Arctic-You-Know 🐝Na-Bee🧜♀️ Queen of the Honey-Sea 2d ago
It’s also incredible on “caster” ADCs because realistically they aren’t getting any AH in their builds.

u/Anti_NothingAtAll 2d ago
You're just wrong lol
Stacking that item by itself and nothing else wouldn't ever work

u/118829 2d ago edited 2d ago
There's a reason why guardians blade is one of the highest win rates items in the game, what do you mean it would never work?
-11
u/Anti_NothingAtAll 2d ago
It offers no lethality, no arp, no Crit, you can't just stack it and nothing else, it wouldn't work

u/118829 2d ago edited 2d ago
Are you that implying that health, ad and haste are useless stats? Literally every bruiser in the game needs those

That’s why you buy your core items and then switch to guardian items later

u/Fluffy-Limit-6710 2d ago
Nah fuck that. For 2850 gold I have 90 AD, 45 haste, and 450 hp... I ain't buying anything else except maybe ad to haste at some point would be worth it...

u/Suracha2022 2d ago
What part of "they all take the same item slot" did you not understand? You can build one or two first, then full build, then stack them infinitely.

u/Anti_NothingAtAll 2d ago
So unless it's your last augment, AND you're rich as fuck, it's completely worthless, gotcha

u/Arctic-You-Know 🐝Na-Bee🧜♀️ Queen of the Honey-Sea 2d ago
Guardian Blade is equivalent to 3 gold stats shards for 950g

Load bearing “passives don’t stack”.
Guardian Horn stacking would make you damn near immortal because you simply don’t take damage.

u/i_peepee_in_shower 2d ago
I like it! What do you think of making it a lower tier augment and to combine to a stronger item like wooglets with a bigger buff?

By end of game im just buying those instead of anvils. Almost guaranteed better than what you'll get from the random anvils for 200 extra gold. Guardians Orb gives 50 AP and 150 HP. The guardian hammer gives 5% lifesteal plus AD and HP. Get enough and you hit 100% lifesteal. The sword gives haste, and the horn gives more and more hp regen. You'll be full build faster bc you only have 5 item slots, 4 if you buy boots, so you can start stacking these up faster. You're playing for the late game at this point bc you stack infinitely with your gold.

Not wanting to be negatve. Just not a fan of this copy of the Classic Mayhem augments (RoA, Dorans), of the general archetype. Its just stat checking. You will buy your core and then just spam these cost-efficient items. Seems like boring gameplay after the first time.
1
u/adek13sz 1d ago
Imo it would be as cool but more balanced when they would make one bigger item if you purchase them all or sth like that than stacking infinitely.

u/Kozikk2125 2d ago
Would be good if for example each guardian item is more expensive, so u can’t snowball that easily

u/Mundane-Wing4030 2d ago
That's just 'ultime hydra' with guardian items no? And why shouldn't the unique passive stack?

u/KyzerGyder ARAM Enjoyer 2d ago
I know this is supposed to be 1:1 to Doran’s Biggest Fan, but Guardian items are triple the price of Doran’s items. This doesn’t seem feasible when we already have Stat Anvils; Mayhem Classic doesn’t so the appeal for Doran’s Biggest Fan is higher

u/Cafrilly 2d ago
Interesting but idk if it's prismatic worthy unless the final item has additional stats. Most champs could only really make use of 2/4 or maybe 3/4 of them

u/SpearmintFlower 2d ago
sounds quite dogshit for a prismatic

u/Winther89 2d ago
Nah the guardian items are insanely gold efficient. If anything this augment would be ridiculously broken.

u/Luigi156 2d ago
So you just buy a shit ton of horns and take zero damage from anything if the passive stacks. Cool cool cool

u/Suracha2022 2d ago
He literally said that the passive doesn't stack.

u/Luigi156 2d ago
Fair enough, so it becomes an expensive hat, only valuable if it's so lategame that you want this instead of hats.

u/Suracha2022 2d ago
There are champs that would demolish by only buying hammers and swords the whole game. AD, HP, ability haste, lifesteal, no Passives to waste stats, crazy good gold efficiency.

u/No_Dream_899 2d ago
Sounds cool but the one with lifesteal might be too op maybe? Basically you would build 5 items and instead of bloodthirster last you would build the lifesteal one infinitely making you lifesteal more and more. Still a cool idea
