Guardian Angel combines powerful defensive and offensive stats with a unique resurrection ability. Here's what you need to know:

Core Stats:

  • Attack Damage: 55
  • Armor: 45

Unique Passive - Rebirth:

  • Upon taking lethal damage, enter 4 seconds of stasis
  • After stasis, resurrect with 50% base health and 100% maximum mana
  • 300 second cooldown

Recipe:

  • Steel Sigil + B.F. Sword + 800 gold
  • Total Cost: 3200 gold
  • Gold efficiency: 88.28% (base stats only)

Key Interactions:

  • Takes priority over Anivia's Rebirth, Zac's Cell Division, and zombie effects
  • Chronoshift from Zilean takes precedence
  • Won't activate when killed by Nexus Obelisk
  • Healing can be increased by items like Spirit Visage
  • Quicksilver can be used during resurrection
  • Summoner spells go on 4-second cooldown upon activation

Important Notes:

  • Limited to 1 per champion
  • Health regeneration is set to 0 during effect
  • Doesn't destroy in-flight projectiles during untargetability
  • Resurrection removes most positive buffs
  • Cannot teleport while being revived

Map Differences:

  • Disabled in ARAM
  • Disabled in Ultra Rapid Fire

This defensive item is particularly effective on AD carries and fighters who need a second chance in crucial teamfights.
