Trivia

• The Seeker's Armguard once belonged to Lissandra, as stated by Gregor and Lyte. Michael 'IronStylus' Maurino once stated the item is now in Sejuani's possession (how the Fury of the North got it is uncertain). Whether this remains canon is unknown.
• The bonuses from Seeker's Armguard's passive disappear upon upgrading it to Zhonya's Hourglass. However, the stats on Zhonya's Hourglass are already higher than a fully stacked Seeker's Armguard and   Fiendish Codex combined so no stats are lost.
• Seeker's Armguard is a replacement to the Zhonya's Hourglass recipe's former use of a Chain Vest, and a  Needlessly Large Rod serving two purposes: the first being to replace the armor value that a Chain Vest would have provided, and the second being to feed in a higher portion of ability power than a Needlessly Large Rod alone would provide.
