★Grasp of the Undying

Keystone · Cross-path keystone · 7.1e

Mechanics

Entering combat generates one stack every second for the next 3 seconds. Additional stacks may be generated by re-entering combat after 2 seconds. After reaching 4 stacks, your next basic attack within 6 seconds against an enemy champion consumes all stacks to deal 2% of your maximum health in bonus magic damage, restore 2.5% of your maximum health, and permanently grant 10 bonus health. The empowered attack duration refreshes whenever going in combat. On ranged champions, all effects are reduced by 40%.
