Does SOtAG replace Warmogs ?

[quote=Gott der 7 Meere]The high days of [[Warmog's Armor]] are over, its hardly more efficient than basic HP items nowadays and with all the %-Health damage other defense items are more important. On the other hand, [[Spirit of the Ancient Golem]] is highly gold efficient (even without jungle passives) and while it only gives half the HP of Warmogs it makes that up with Tenacity, CDR, MReg and even offers more Health Regeneration until you hit 1,4k Health. I think [[Spirit of the Ancient Golem]] a really good early game item on Top Lane bruisers that want a big chunk of cheap HP, and a much better one than [[Warmog's Armor]]. Edit: Also the increased jungle damage is not entirely wsted if you can farm jungle camps and gives quite some additional damage to baron/dragon.[/quote]

[quote=luizdeh]Get it on [[olaf]] now and then as first complete item in top lane. Reasons for that: 1. Cheap and effective 2. [[olaf]] needs his HP and CDR for E spam 3. I always build [[kindlegem]] as soon as possible on him I wouldn't recommend it on just about any top laner, but any bruiser that is happy stacking HP and/or CDR early, it is definitely worthwhile. And I don't agree it replaced [[warmog's armor]]. 500 HP is still 500 HP. I think they fill different needs.[/quote]

[quote=sirell]I dunno, I haven't built a [[warmog's armor]] for a long time, by which I mean the beginning of Season 3. I didn't use it after the nerf at all. On the other hand, I have built [[sunfire cape]], [[spirit visage]] and [[spirit of the ancient golem]] a LOT.[/quote]

[quote=Gott der 7 Meere]I don't even bother with [[Mercury's Treads]] on Tanks or Bruisers anymore thanks to [[Spirit of the Ancient Golem]] and I enjoy more freedom in my boot choices and delaying boots or boot upgrades just frees up soo much gold its not even funny.[/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]I still buy Warmogs on Mundo :3 Other than that, not a lot of other champs. Spirit of the Ancient Golem seems an interesting pick, though I mostly pick SV and SC for my health problems :3 How cost effective is it anyway? I mean, all stats excluding the unique passives make a total of 2566g of worth, but how much gold is tenacity worth :O[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD]I build both on Garen.[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]havent seen warmogs in a long time dont think top laners will build sotag tho the giants belt items are much better （health + other stat)[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=Embracing] havent seen warmogs in a long time dont think top laners will build sotag tho the giants belt items are much better （health + other stat) [/quote] [[RAnduin's Omen]] trumps Mogs on almost every champion.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]In Korea, everyone builds 1 spirit item except support and mid to give your team more objective control. This reminds me on the good old TSM strategy to get 3 [[wriggle's lantern]] and have through that objective control. [[spirit of the ancient golem]] and [[spirit of the elder lizard]] are both really strong items.[/quote]

[quote=caucheka][quote=Meiyjhe] I still buy Warmogs on Mundo :3 [/quote] or anyone else who just stacks blobs of health like cho'gath ahuehuehuehue[/quote]
