Nashor's Tooth
Nashor's Tooth becomes a true AP item again in patch 7.3: 80 AP, 50% attack speed, no adaptive force, for AP champions who attack a lot.
The item is very strong when your champion genuinely mixes frequent autos with magical scaling. It is not just there to add a bit of attack speed: it thickens the entire damage pattern over time and turns contact uptime into a real win condition.
It is a solid buy for AP auto-attackers and magic split-pushers. It is weaker if your champion does not auto-attack enough, or if it relied on the adaptive stats of a hybrid build.
Strategische Zusammenfassung
Nashor's Tooth becomes a true AP item again in patch 7.3: 80 AP, 50% attack speed, no adaptive force, for AP champions who attack a lot.
Gnaw: your basic attacks deal 15 + 20% of your bonus AP as magic damage on hit. Riot removed the adaptive force, which created few meaningful builds and limited how much power it could give the other stats. Hybrid builds that relied on the adaptive stat lose out.

- Another AP slot answers the game more directly.
Champion-Beispiele
Nashor's Tooth fits Kayle's plan perfectly by increasing cadence, sustained damage, and her ability to convert every free-hit window.
On Gwen, the item heavily improves trades, objective DPS, and pressure in extended duels.
Very coherent for an auto-focused, sustained-pressure Teemo, especially when he can chip over time rather than rely on one burst window.
Vergleiche
Nashor's Tooth wins when the champion's core is first and foremost attack cadence and on-hit value. Riftmaker becomes superior when you can stay in long fights and extract more value from ramping damage and overall durability.
Lich Bane is better for short explosive spell-weave windows. Nashor is better when you want repeated autos, steady pressure, and more linear long-duration DPS.
Infinity Orb amplifies burst and target execution. Nashor's Tooth offers less immediate spike but more consistency, dueling, and sustained damage over several seconds.
Häufige Fehler
- Buying it on an AP champion just because they scale with AP, without checking their real auto-attack volume.
- Confusing a cadence-based hybrid item with a burst item: Nashor's Tooth is not here to replace a large instant spike.
- Rushing it in a game where you can never stay in range long enough to auto attack.
- Underestimating its value in split-push, dueling, and neutral objectives, where it can be far more rewarding than in simple mid-lane poke.
- Keeping it as an autopilot purchase in builds where mana, penetration, survivability, or anti-tank priorities should come first.
