Ornn can upgrade this Item to a Mastwerwok Item:
- Item icon is modified with
- AH: 20 (+16) with a total of 36
- AR: 75 (+25) with a total of 100

Trivia[]

The attack speed debuff affects champions, minions, and monsters, except for the Dragon and Baron Nashor, as they are immune to crowd control.
Frozen Heart's old icon is the same icon used to represent a Citrine gem in the popular MMO World of Warcraft. In this game, the gem appears orange.
The item's description "Warning: Do not thaw!" is a reference to the item Eye of Skadi from the mod DotA: Allstars, whose description contains exactly the same line.
The Frozen Brain was a seasonal item for the 2010 Harrowing celebration. It has the same stats as the Frozen Heart, just a different name and picture.

Patch History[]

Patch 14.19

As part of an ongoing effort to reign in complexity while retaining depth in item choices, we're removing Rock Solid from Frozen Heart and replacing it with some extra armor. Taking less damage per auto and simply reducing the number of incoming autos are pretty similar mechanics and Winter's Caress is a strict upgrade.

Armor: 65 ⇒ 75
removed Rock Solid: Removed
Winter's Caress: Now only affects champions

Patch 14.5

Frozen Heart is currently the most built tank item in the game. For a niche item that is hyper focused on hampering one specific style of one damage type, that means the item is overperforming. This patch we're nerfing Frozen Heart's more generic strengths in order to preserve its usefulness as a specific counter as opposed to a generic tank item.

Total Price: 2400 gold ⇒ 2500 gold
Armor: 70 ⇒ 65

Patch 14.2

Some would say we made Frozen Heart cheap. Possibly too cheap. And thus, we are here to un-cheapen it. By upping the cost Frozen Heart should now be more comparable to other potential armor item options.

Total Cost: 2300 ⇒ 2400

Patch 14.1

Total Cost: 2700 ⇒ 2300
Item Recipe: Warden’s Mail + Glacial Buckler + 400 gold
Armor: 90 ⇒ 70
Ability Haste: 20 (unchanged)
Mana: 400 (unchanged)
Unique Passive - Rock Solid and Winter’s Caress: Unchanged

Patch 12.20

Frozen Heart has been a strong tank item for the majority of the season, however it's recently popped up as an early rush item on non-tanks. We're reducing its base damage reduction to make it better synergize with tanks, and upping the gold cost so non-tanks will have to delay their damage items longer if they want to build it.

Total Cost: 2500 ⇒ 2700
Combine Cost: 600 ⇒ 800
Armor: 80 ⇒ 90
Rock Solid Damage Reduction: 7 (+ 3.5 per 1000 health) ⇒ 5 (+ 3.5 per 1000 health)

Patch 11.11

ROCK SOLID DAMAGE REDUCTION : [0.5% of maximum health] ⇒ 7 + 0.35% of maximum health

WINTER’S CARESS ENEMY ATTACK SPEED SLOW : [15%] ⇒ 20%

Patch 11.8

Frozen Heart’s been getting looked over in the tank item department. Have some heart (and more armor, while you’re at it).

ARMOR : [70] ⇒ 80

Patch 11.3

TOTAL COST : [2700 gold] ⇒ 2500 gold

COMBINE COST : [800 gold] ⇒ 600 gold

ARMOR : [80] ⇒ 70

Patch 10.23
Now passively reduces damage taken from basic attacks.

While Randuin's fills the anti-crit space, Frozen Heart takes the same core effect but retains its previous niche as an anti-attack speed item.

Effects

WINTER'S CARESS : Reduces the attack speed of nearby enemies by 15%

ROCK SOLID : Reduce incoming damage from basic attacks by up to 0.5% of your max health, capped at 40% of the attack's damage

Patch 10.2

Frozen Heart is underperforming compared to other options for armor. We want it to be a go-to consideration when a champion is facing many physical threats.

ARMOR : [100] ⇒ 110

v7.21
Armor increased.

Frozen Heart has been outshined by other tank items, with Thornmail, Randuin’s Omen, and Iceborn Gauntlet all occupying nearby niches and crowding it out. We’re honing in on its strength as the pure armor item to give tanks more reasons to opt into it.

ARMOR : [90] ⇒ 100

v5.16

Frozen Heart’s been a statistical outlier for a pretty long time, so we’re lowering its raw cost / power efficiency. You might call us heartless, but we’re pretty sure the item’s still great.

TOTAL COST : [2450 gold] ⇒ 2600 gold

ARMOR : [100] ⇒ 90
