Gotchas
The mechanics people most often get wrong about this item.
- Silenced (and therefore unusable) while affected by Slowing Hex
- Its targeting changed on 30 Oct 2026 with no patch note: the game data now aims at a landing point and checks you fit there; how that plays is not sourced
Problems it answers
- Dive onto the backline — “They jump straight past the frontline onto me.”
- Stuns and hard CC — “I get locked down and deleted.”
- Zoning and area denial — “I get pushed out of every fight position.”
