Adverse Effects in TFT Set 14 are built-in effects that come with the abilities of certain champions. They give your team an advantage over opponents without needing to rely on effect-inducing items.
Reduce Armor
Reduce Armor (Sunder) is an effect primarily designed for team compositions that rely on AD-based carries, similar to Last Whisper and Evenshroud.
- Darius: Reduces the enemy's Armor by 20% within a 1-hex range ⇒ Percentage-based Armor reduction.
- Jhin: Reduces the target's Armor by 20% for 4.4 seconds ⇒ Percentage-based Armor reduction.
- Jarvan IV: Reduces enemies' Armor by 15/18/20 for the entire fight ⇒ Flat Armor reduction.
- Samira: Each bullet reduces the enemy's Armor by 4 ⇒ Flat Armor reduction.
Note: Flat Armor reduction differs from the Sunder effect provided by Last Whisper and Evenshroud.

Reduce Healing
