Strategy

  • Path of Iron has a similar effect to the Captain Captain enchantment, so it's a great tool for initiators to make sure their team can follow up.
  • The tenacity and slow resistance granted by this elixir stack multiplicatively with other sources of those stats, including passives granted by Mercury's Treads Mercury's Treads and Boots of Swiftness Boots of Swiftness. Still, purchasing this elixir gives access to Tenacity while having other boots in an endgame build.
  • Elixirs are often bought towards the end of long games when builds are all completed and the extra gold continues to accumulate. They can also be bought mid game to give a temporary stat advantage during ganks and teamfights.
  • Increased size will give bonus auto-attack range by about 20 or 25 units.
