Critical Resistance is a base statistic and a beneficial effect that determines the portion of the Opponent's Critical Rating that is ignored. The higher a Champion's Critical Resistance, the less chance that they will receive a Critical Hit.
Abilities like Sunder can be used to counter Critical Resistance, setting it to 0 and preventing it from increasing.
