+40 Movement SPD



Warrior Boots
Cost: 720
+22 Physical Defense
+40 Movement SPD

Warrior boots is more worthed to buy than swift boots. It offers 47 total armor that will enable you to win in gold lane/ exp lane agaisnt physical dps enemy.


Physical Damage Multiplier = 120 / (120+[ physical defense - {100 - percentage penetration} ] )


Lets assume you have 17 base physical defense. With warrior boots, you have 34.8% physical damage reduction or 27% physical damage reduction if enemy use assassin emblem, thats alot of damage reduction. With swift boots, you have 12% physical damage reduction or 1% physical damage increase if enemy use assassin emblem.

Offensive wise, swift boot offers 15% increase in attack speed. Your hero will attack 0.15 more frequent in the span of 1 sec, thats not alot. Players that use warrior boots can play more agressive and win damage trade because they have that damage reduction. I do hope swift boot gets additional passive to make it worthwhile to be used. Until then, warrior boots always better...

Yep Agree with you. Swift boots really needs a good passive, coz its an essential boot for most mm and they are squsihy too. A good sustain passive or buff, will make a lot better . Thnks for the suggestion. :)

That is why many MMs take Warrior boots rather than Swift boots, simply due to the better benefits and practicalities than Swift boots. It's kind of outdated, I do agree.
