Cost Analysis

Gold Value

• 250 health = 667
• 20% cooldown reduction = 633
• 20 attack damage = 720
• 10% life steal = 550
  • Total Gold Value = 2590

Gold Efficiency*

• Zeke's Herald's base stats were 105.71% gold efficient.
• With four allies, its value is increased by (550 + 720) × 4 = 5080, giving it a value of 7670, and a gold efficiency of 313%.
• Even if CDR is already maxed out at the time of purchase, this item still becomes cost efficient at only one ally, at (2590 − 633 + 720 + 550) ÷ 2550 = 126.5%.

Notes

Visual appearance

Strategy

• Zeke's Herald is best suited for support champions or bruisers that can make use of its unique combination of stats like Olaf, Shyvana, and Trundle. It's also useful for champions that simply require a life steal item that's more defensive than The Bloodthirster.

Trivia

• Zeke's Herald is named after a character from the webcomic as a reward for the creator Tim Buckley gaining over 1000 referrals.
• Zeke's Herald is the second iteration of a supportive aura item. It was remade from Stark's Fervor and then replaced by Zeke's Harbinger which was then developed into its modern form as Zeke's Convergence.
• If more than 1 champion carries this item, the buff of the aura will grant to even another carrier but cannot stack, thus if 3 champions carry this item you only gain the benefits twice once from yourself, once from the allied aura.
