Example: 20 lethality on a user will cause a target to take damage as if its armor was 20 less, so a target with 30 armor will be treated as though it had 10 for purposes of damage calculation (the target's actual armor value will not change, however).

Lethality gives you an exact number for the armor of enemy champions that you will ignore. This is a flat amount of armor penetration that your attacks and abilities ignore. This means, if you have 30 lethality, and the enemy champion has 40 armor, it will essentially act as if the enemy has 10 armor.

The highest amount of Lethality that can be obtained in League of Legends is 129, which can increase to 162 for Aphelios with specific abilities and items. Lethality is calculated using the formula: Flat Armor Penetration = Lethality × (0.6 + 0.4 × level ÷ 18), making it increasingly effective as a champion levels up.
