Zhonya's Hourglass

Zhonya's Hourglass

Zhonya's Hourglass gives AP champions the strongest active in the game: 2.5 seconds of invulnerability that cancels a dive, an ultimate, or an entire burst window.

Added to Wild Rift in the 7.1 rework, it replaces the old Stasis enchant with a real item: AP, armor, and stasis on active. Against Zed, Kha'Zix, or any dive comp, it changes the enemy win condition — killing you becomes a losing investment.

Second or third buy as soon as enemy AD burst targets you; pointless if nobody can reach you.
