Stat Impact

What Plated Armor actually gives you

Plated Armor delivers 130 bonus health. These bonuses determine which heroes and builds below actually benefit from the slot, and why the win rates on certain heroes skew so far above or below the item's average.

Best Heroes

Who wins most with Plated Armor

Plated Armor performs strongest on Victor (56.9% WR across 22,271 games), Dynamo (56.0% WR across 26,616 games), and Abrams (54.9% WR across 34,648 games). These heroes convert the item's stat bonuses into real win rate gains, usually because their kit scales linearly with the stats the item provides. If you play one of these heroes, this item belongs in your core build.

Most Picked By
