Guardian Angel is a legendary defensive item that provides both offensive and defensive stats along with a unique resurrection passive.

Core Stats:

  • Attack Damage: 55
  • Armor: 45
  • Cost: 3200 gold

Unique Passive - Rebirth: Upon taking lethal damage, the champion enters a 4-second stasis state and resurrects with 50% base health and 100% maximum mana. (300 second cooldown)

Recipe:

  • Steel Sigil
  • B.F. Sword
  • 800g combine cost

Key Interactions:

  • Rebirth takes priority over Anivia's Rebirth, Zac's Cell Division, and zombie state effects
  • Does not trigger when killed by the Nexus Obelisk
  • Healing amount can be increased by effects like Spirit Visage (+25%)
  • Quicksilver can be used during resurrection
  • All summoner spells are placed on 4-second cooldown upon triggering

Important Notes:

  • Limited to 1 Guardian Angel per champion
  • Health regeneration is set to 0 during Rebirth
  • Untargetability does not destroy in-flight projectiles
  • Most effective on AD-focused champions who benefit from both offensive and defensive stats

The item provides 88.28% gold efficiency from base stats alone, not counting the value of its resurrection passive, making it a strong defensive option for carries who need a second chance in teamfights.
