Items[]
- Since the Glacial synergy relies on hitting the enemy champions, attack speed items like
Guinsoo's Rageblade or survival items like Warmog's Armor can ensure the glacial champions can stun the enemy. - Units that are stunned can still gain mana from taking damage, and will immediately use their special ability if given a chance. This makes magic resistance items worthwhile for the Glacial synergy, like Dragon's Claw, Hush, or Ionic Spark.
- Along with the on-hit stun effect Glacial provides, three of the glacial champions' special ability stun targets. Giving mana items like Seraph's Embrace or Spear of Shojin to these three champions will increase the time the opposing army spends stunned.
- This trait has the added benefit of Frozen Mallet being able to turn any champion into a glacial. Good choices for this are high attack speed champions like Rangers or Blademasters.
- Stunning multiple targets can help guarantee an equipped Redemption will be useful.
Counters[]
- A Glacial team will stun the frontline champions, but the synergy doesn't give bonus damage or resistances, so Glacial is weak against team with a solid frontline with most of the damage coming from the backline.
- If a tanky frontline champion can draw their attention, Assassins can take the glacial champions out without worrying about the stun.
- A champion holding a Guardian Angel will lose all aggro on them while being revived.
- Frozen Heart and Sword Breaker will slow down how fast the Glacial enemies attack, and in turn stun allies.
- Rapid Firecannon gives the option to out-range the Glacials while they focus on the frontline, unable to stun the user.
- Youmuu's Ghostblade can allow one ally the ability to dodge getting targeted and take out their backline.
- Since the synergy focuses on basic attacks, Thornmail can allow a stunned ally deal damage to their attackers.
