Circle of DeathSGod Tier

Maokai's best augment. One auto = full health.

Courage of the ColossusS

Q grants a shield stack per hit — multi-target Q = huge shield.

Void Rift is magic damage, so it fits AP champions with high magic pen — % magic pen amplifies it, and Pridestalker's ability damage procs it many times. Forge: magic pen > AP > MS.

Protein Shake gives huge sustain — combined with Maokai's % HP regen passive, you never die.

Maokai's QWR all proc Colossus's Courage shield; Protein Shake amps shield and passive heal — just stick W on enemies and chain QWR.
