Hecarim Item Build

BRUISER LOADOUT · HECARIM

A 20-point Defense commitment dictates how the primary Hecarim build is played, with Smite and Ghost setting the bruiser route. Frozen Heart and Force of Nature anchor the core before Trinity Force, Maw of Malmortius, and Guardian Angel complete it.

Bruiser Hecarim pairs Smite and Ghost with a 1/20/9 mastery split, establishing the primary variant's defense-heavy profile. Frozen Heart and Force of Nature lead its core, followed by Trinity Force, Maw of Malmortius, and Guardian Angel.

Bruiser

Tank Hecarim Build

Tank
Tank Hecarim commits harder to defense when you want a dedicated tank alternative to the primary bruiser setup.

Its mastery line reaches 21 points in Defense, while Smite and Flash define this version's summoner pairing. Trinity Force starts the core before Aegis of the Legion, with Randuin's Omen following as the route moves into its defensive slots. That order keeps the tank variant distinct from the primary route without changing the documented setup.

AD Hecarim Build

Top AD

Trinity Force is in all four Hecarim builds, which makes it the cheapest way to describe the set. The Bruiser and Tank pages put resistances around it, with Force of Nature, Frozen Heart and Randuin's Omen. The Crit and AD pages go the other way, adding Infinity Edge and Phantom Dancer and taking Berserker's Greaves or Boots of Swiftness rather than Mercury's Treads. Sunfire Cape turns up on both a tank page and a damage page, which is the sort of overlap that says the archetype labels are doing more work here than the item lists are. Maw of Malmortius covers magic burst on two of the four.
