Defense is the new offense (Breaking the defense cap)

We stack defenses and defense multipliers ( Thickbark Acorn, Corrupted Bluestone, Dawnbringer), and then use items which scale well with defense ( Pridwen, Gladiator's Shield). At the same time we benefit from stealing Protections via Thickbark Acorn.

The build also has a decent amount of power (though no pen) and attack speed from Corrupted Bluestone, so you can deal decent damage while relying on your def to keep you in the fight.

Does this work on other Gods?

A modified version of this build also works nicely with Achilles Radiant Glory, but his ultimate is usually used towards the end of a fight, meaning Dawnbringer and Pridwen arent as useful, so he isnt too well suited for this build, and it ends up being a default "stack def + glad shield" build.

Preferred Properties for other Gods to build this on:

* Physical is preferred (to use Dawnbringer and Bluestone, and brawl with autos)
* Defense increasing abilities (percentage > flat)
* Ulti that a) is used to initiate, b) has low cooldown
* Built for brawling (mobile, good basic attacks, flexible kit)

Let me know if you find someone this works with better than Rat!
