League of Legends: Wild Rift is filled with Champions that are categorized by multiple different roles, and classes and these Champions have a wide variety of abilities. However, items and the order they're purchased determine how well players can make use of the utility and power all Champions have.
Items can give stats ranging from Attack Damage, Attack Speed, Critical Chance, Ability Power, Ability Haste, Armor, Magic Resistance, Health, and more. The most powerful Champion can be useless compared to the weakest Champions if they have the wrong items purchased, or way fewer items than the Champion they're fighting against. So, let's discuss which items are the best and what makes them so powerful.
10 Youmuu's Ghostblade
Youmuu's Ghostblade is an item that is a core item on most Attack Damage based Assassins. The Attack Damage, Lethality, Ability Haste, and Movement Speed, alongside the extra Attack Speed players receive when engaging in combat are extremely useful in helping Assassins get their job done.
This item has powerful components that are also very cost-efficient and grant better item power spikes when compared to most other item components.
9 Sunfire Aegis
Sunfire Aegis is a core item for a lot of Tanks that are in Baron Lane. The Ability Haste and bonus Health it gives are useful when paired with other defensive items. The Immolation effect of dealing damage to nearby enemies makes Tanks deal a significant amount of damage in team fights, helps clear minion waves quicker, and helps when dueling as well.
8 Dead Man's Plate
Dead Man's Plate is a very versatile item, since it works well on some Tanks, Bruisers, and Supports. The bonus Health, Armor, and Movement Speed help players frontline in team fights comfortably and roam throughout the map to aid allies swiftly.
This item also has a bonus slowing effect that, once ramped up, can slow down enemies that are hit by an auto-attack and deal a bit of extra damage. Having the extra slow effect can easily set up players and their allies for successful kills to set them on the path to victory.
7 Guardian Angel
Guardian Angel is a niche item that can be a complete game-changer under certain circumstances. The Attack Damage and Armor it gives are merely a bonus, because the main draw of this item is for the revival effect.
When a player dies with this item effect available, they will revive after feigning death for a few seconds with a small portion of their Health. Being able to revive once the enemy runs out of Ultimate abilities and other main sources of damage gives players a chance to turn the tides of battle.
6 Ardent Censer
Ardent Censer is an item exclusively for Supports, but it is still worth noting due to how impactful it is in a game. The Ability Power, Ability Haste, and bonus Health it gives are useful to every Enchanter Support in the game.
When paired with an Auto Attack-based Champion, it can help them raise their damage as if they had another item. This is because of the extra Attack Speed and on-hit Magic Damage it provides allies that are healed or shielded.
5 Rabadon's Deathcap
Rabadon's Deathcap is the most powerful Ability Power item in the game without question and is a must-have on nearly every Mage. The Ability Power it gives becomes higher based on how much Ability Power players have, so the more items players have, the more effective this item becomes.
In the Late Game, this item alone provides nearly more Ability Power than all the other Ability Power items in the player's build combined. Mages are usually either very Burst Damage or Poke Damage oriented, and this item makes it easier to fill those roles.
4 Blade of the Ruined King
Blade of the Ruined King is pretty versatile when it comes to hero selection, since it can be used on Marksman, Fighters, and Assassins. This item is one of the strongest first item purchases in the game due to the combination of Attack Damage, Life Steal, Attack Speed, and the on-hit effect that deals percentage Health damage and a slowing effect.
It's great for chasing enemies down, kiting enemies, or simply dueling them and giving players the extra sustain to make it through the early game healthily.
3 Black Cleaver
Black Cleaver is flexible enough to be used on Fighters, Marksman, and Assassins. The Attack Damage, Ability Haste, and Health are stats that can be useful for most Champions under these three classifications.
However, it's more sought after for the Armor Shredding effect, or the Movement Speed boost players gain from auto-attacking enemies. This item works wonders against Tanks and shines — even moreso when it's used with a heavy Physical Damage based composition.
2 Trinity Force
Trinity Force is another adaptable item that can be used on many Fighters, Assassins, and Marksman. This item gives Attack Damage, Ability Haste, Attack Speed, Health — an extremely well-rounded combination, which is partially why it's an item that can be used effectively by a lot of different Champions.
The special effect that enhances Physical Damage dealt after using an ability, combined with the bonus Movement Speed, helps Champions chase or kite easier. Trinity Force is also a very powerful first item power spike and also increases its efficiency the more Attack Damage items player's purchase. It also helps quite a bit with Burst Damage.
1 Infinity Edge
Infinity Edge is a core item for most Marksman since it is the only item in the game that increases Critical Damage. The Attack Damage and Critical Chance it gives are also beneficial for most Marksman, allowing their DPS (Damage Per Second) to reach unmatched numbers in the Late Game.
This item can occasionally be used by Assassins to increase their Burst Damage as well. Although this item may not have as much versatility as other aforementioned items, its uniqueness more than makes up for it and is what allows most auto-attack based Marksman to thrive in the Mid to Late Game.
