Strategy

• Rod of Ages is best used by champions that can make use of the large stat increases by scaling with them effectively (usually mana).
• Rod of Ages is often the item that is built the first by its users due to wanting to stack up its passive as early as possible into the game.
  • This is because the stats the item grants by itself along with the stacks are highly valuable, especially in the early game.
  • Having the item as part of one's build is too high of an investment since it takes a total of 10 minutes for it to reach its full potential, so it must be prioritized as a rush item so that it achieves that power spike sooner than later.
• Rod of Ages also provides a slight amount of sustain with its other passive which recovers both health and mana.

Trivia

• Rod of Ages may have been originally named as "Guinsoo's Rod of Oblivion", and its icon is still named as such in the League of Legends install directory.
• Karthus Lightsbane uses the Rod of Ages.
• The name is likely a reference to Def Leppard's 1983 song "Rock of Ages". (The movie of the same name, which is also named after the song, was not released until 3 years after the item came out.)
• The Quick Charge version is also used on the Crystal Scar during Rotating Game Modes.
• The name of its Masterwork item on PBE during the Preseason 2023 cycle was Scepter of Eternity.
