One of the best items in League of Legends in this Patch 11.13 besides Divine Sunderer is Abyssal Mask.

A few hours ago, the Riot Games YouTube channel LEC uploaded an amazing video highlighting the current Support trend. Riot Games specifically stated that Abyssal Mask is becoming an incredibly strong item for Tank Support champions. Characters including Alistar, Nautilus, Rell, and particularly Leona proved to be good choices to pair with this item.

To begin, we must understand that Abyssal Mask provides 400 health points and 60 magic resistance. Not only that, but this equipment allows your teammates to do 15% more damage for 5 seconds when an opponent is immobilized by you. As a result, this item is excellent for champions with a high level of control abilities, which is one of the main characteristics of Tank Supports.

The major advantage of this item is that it enhances all sources of damage against immobilized enemy champions. As a result, whether your squad is prone to physical or magical damage, the impact of this equipment will still benefit them. This allows gamers to buy Abyssal Mask in every match, with the confidence that it will operate to its full capacity.

This passive has proven to be highly effective on Tank Support champions by amplifying a substantial amount of damage from their teammates. Leona is one of the champions that have quickly become the best pick for this item in League Patch 11.13. This is because her Q – Shield of Daybreak’s basic cooldown is 5 seconds, which corresponds to the damage amplification time from Abyssal Mask. As a result, Leona may trigger this ability indefinitely in combat, causing a significant damage differential between the two teams.

To get the most out of this item, utilize it as the first major item. Being able to enhance teammates’ damage early on with Abyssal Mask will aid the team in establishing a strong snowball position and seizing control of the game. Following that, you should still purchase the Locked of the Iron Solari or Shurelya’s Battlesong in the Mythic equipped position as normal.

The Abyssal Mask, on the other hand, is a highly powerful item that appears to be overkill for Tank Support players. If you are play champions such as Leona, Alistar, Nautilus, and Rell, Abyssal Mask will help you easily climb the ranks.
