Attack windup
The attack windup is a portion of the basic attack animation that must play out in order to launch it. For projectile basic attacks, the windup usually aligns with drawing the projectile on-screen.

The attack windup is displayed as a percentage, and any windup modifier is listed as a decimal next to it.

 Pix, Faerie Companion
Innate: An icon representing Lulu Lulu is assisted by Pix, whom follows her around. Whenever Lulu basic attacks, Pix fires 3 bolts that deal magic damage to the first enemy hit.
Casting An icon for Lulu's ability Help, Pix! Help, Pix! on an ally champion transfers Pix to them, to which he fires with their basic attacks.
Pix snaps back to Lulu if she moves too far away.
League of Legends content

Dodge
Dodging an instance of damage will skip its damage event entirely, preventing it from being taken and effects that trigger from damage. Dodge takes precedence over block, but not blind.

Effects that dodge damage will only dodge instances that are dodgeable. Note that these are specified in the ability details on the Wiki.

Basic attacks and abilities that apply on-hit effects are always dodged, unless otherwise stated.

This effect is exclusive to An icon representing Jax Jax's An icon for Jax's ability Counter Strike Counter Strike and An icon representing Nilah Nilah's An icon for Nilah's ability Jubilant Veil Jubilant Veil.

League of Legends content
Block
Blocking an instance of damage will reduce its value to 0, but does not prevent effects that trigger from damage. Blind and dodge take precedence over block.

Effects that block damage will only block instances that are blockable. Note that these are specified in the ability details on the Wiki.

Basic attacks and abilities that apply on-hit effects are always blocked, unless otherwise stated.

This effect is exclusive to An icon representing Shen Shen's An icon for Shen's ability Spirit's Refuge Spirit's Refuge and is similar though mechanically different to Dodge.

League of Legends content
Blind

A unit that is blinded will miss their basic attacks for the duration, comparable to attacking a target that is able to dodge or block, but not mechanically similar. Missed basic attacks will fail to deal damage and apply on-hit effects, with the exception of some empowered basic attacks. Blind does not prevent the unit from declaring attacks, unlike Disarm.

Interrupts: Does not interrupt any actions, but will prevent on-hit effects from being triggered by basic attacks.
Reduction: The duration is affected by Tenacity.
Resist: Resisted by crowd control immunity.
Removal: Removed by Cleanses with the exception of An icon for the item Mikael's Blessing Mikael's Blessing.

Crowd control

A unit that is disabled is affected by a status effect that prevents certain actions – such as movement, attacking, casting and/or seeing–blocked, reduced or controlled.

Crowd control applied by one's self or an ally cannot be countered in any way, neither reduced in duration, resisted, nor removed unless special cased to do so.

  • The crowd control effect may still be cleansed if it is applied as a debuff separate from the originated ability.
