Trivia[]

  • Its deployment was planned for the first preseason patch V4.20, but it was delayed due to reprioritizing other art assets.

  • Raptor Cloak
    was initially created for this item. Later on,
    Ohmwrecker
    was also tweaked to build from it.
  • Upon release, the Voidspawn were given huge damage whenever a player disconnected for longer than a minute (this causes their champion to gain 1000 armor and 1000 magic resistance) Zz'Rot Portal was disabled until it could be fixed.

Patch History[]

Patch 9.23

Zz'Rot enables split push strategies that don't involve enough champion interaction. We may revisit this type of strategic item in the future, but if we do it'll require more risk for wielders to use.

WHAT'S IN A NAME : Malzahar's W stacks have been renamed from Gathering Swarm to Zz'Rot Swarm. Next patch, his W will also be renamed to Zz'Rot Swarm.

v6.24
Portal cooldown and duration reduced. Voidspawn health scaling down and decay rate up. Voidspawn structure damage up.

Zz’Rot Portal should be the go-to defensive item for tanks who want to opt into a pushing strategy. However, we also want ZZ’Rot to be an engaging item that informs a tank’s playstyle, not something they fire and forget. The high travel range of Voidspawn gives Zz’Rot too much pressure even when its owner isn’t around to curate or replace it. We’re sharpening Zz’Rot’s power as the go-to tower-sieging item for aggressive pushers, while toning down its ability to control a lane from afar.

CREEPY, NOT CREEPS : Killing a voidspawn no longer increases your creep score


v6.6
Less armor and magic resist. Portals give more gold to enemies and now have ward health.

Ah, Zz’Rot. While always seen a silly niche item, you eventually fought your way into our inventories. And then our lanes. And then all of our lanes, as it turns out. Zz’Rot’s intended to fill a strategic role, allowing teams to reactively opt-in to pushing when the situation calls for it (or proactively layer on an already push-heavy comp). Lately though it’s all been ‘stats first, strategy second’ for Zz’Rot buyers, warping regular and pro play alike. We’re focusing the item less on stat-lines and more on your ability to place and protect your portals.

MAGIC RESIST : [60] 55

TOTAL cost : [2750 gold] 2700 gold
BUILD path : Raptor Cloak + Negatron Cloak + 780 gold
BASE health REGEN 150% : 125%


v5.16
More health regen and point runner decays over time. Voidspawn are tankier and go further, but deal less damage.

While an incredibly stat-efficient item already, Zz’rot is often seen more as a ‘gimmick’ and less of the neat strategic pushing tool it should be. A boatload of extra range (is distance measured in boats?) and increased survivability will grant teams seeking alternate forms of pressure a ticking-void-bomb’s worth of siege potential (given that you can protect that gate in the first place). Failing that, you can always leave it in a lane while fighting your opponents in the jungle - often netting you two objectives at once. Now you’re thinking with portals.

v5.5 MORE BUFFS!

"Now that we think players have good ways to deal with this (see: ability power damage to structures, etc), we're giving it some extra love. Also, please don't build this item against Nasus. Trust us. "

  • VOIDSPAWN ACQUISITION RANGE AGAINST NEXUS : 300 450

v5.2
It looks like a lot of changes, but the short of it is that Zz'Rot Portals are now treated as, for all intents and purposes, structures (ie: Towers / Inhibitors). Also Voidspawn now have less magic resistances and deal less damage to structures, but deal more damage to minions in the early game. Also the first and every fourth Voidspawn now get the bonus damage from defensive stats.

"As the designer puts it, "Complex items means complex bugs." We've gone in and shuffled around Zz'Rot's coding to cement it as a structure in terms of its interactions with the game (and how it's interacted with). We also made some extra changes to help this thing settle in both its current use and potential counters."

  • Portal Mechanics

v5.1

NEW Zz'Rot Portal

"You can now build Portals which spawn little Voidspawns who explode on enemy structures.
Think of this new item as a follow-up to our original preseason promise of adding more strategic diversity to League of Legends.
