hands down one of the overall best items in LoL.

you gain so much for your gold, it´s almost always worth it as soon as there are two really annoying nukers in the opposing team that cannot unleash their combo as super easily on you if you get this such as ryze, veigar, annie or malzahar for example.

it protected me from karthus´ ulti occasionally as well but that´s pretty random/far not as reliable as zhonya of course.

anyways an excellent item, either banshee or frozen heart were my main defensive item for slot 5 or 6 in almost every game i played so far.
