With the beginning of Season 14 in League of Legends, we got tons of new items for every role. Besides mages and assassins, tanks also got tons of great new items, and we're here to tell you everything you need to know about them. This time, we'll take a look at Kaenik Rookern!
With the start of Season 14, we also got tons of new items, including for tanks. And Kaenic Rookern is one of them, being probably the best item addition for tanks for a long time. This item grants you tons of resistances against AP champs and is finally an item any tank can build without an exception.

Kaenic Rookern is a legendary item and costs 2900 gold. This item grants you every stat you could ask for as a tank, who has to fight against AP champs, including a magic shield as your passive. For more deets, check out the following list:

Champions That Should Build Kaenic Rookern
Basically, every full tank can build this item if your opponent is an AP champ or the enemy team got a lot of AP champs in general. But one champion that truly shines with this item is Galio.
Since Galio is designed to counter AP champs with his MR scalings in his kit and a passive, which is granting him a magic shield, mages will have literally no chance to shut him down when he builds this item, getting the highest MR stat (80) you can receive from an item and a double shield (Galio's passive + item's passive), which absorbs tons of magic damage.
