• Head Rush can be cast on jungle plants, wards, and traps.
  • It cannot be cast on structures.
• Head Rush's damage benefits from life steal.
• Head Rush is a non-following dash.
  • It picks its dash destination ~100 units in front of enemy targets, 75 units in front of enemy targets when already very close to them, 75 units in front of allied targets.
  • If already within 75 units of her target, she dashes to her current location, which takes 0 time but still triggers dash effects such as Sudden Impact.
  • It does not force the target's resistance values to update immediately outside of the natural stat update cycle, which means it will typically still be mitigated by the unreduced magic resistance value.

• Blood Frenzy acquires targets regardless of if they are visible or not.
  • This does not apply to stealthed targets.
• If the main attack critically strikes, the cleave damage will do so as well.
• Briar uses Frenzy as a resource to indicate the remaining duration of the frenzy, in seconds.
• The following table refers for interactions while Briar is in her frenzy:
  • While in the frenzy, Briar cannot control her movement nor declare who she attacks. She will automatically acquire a nearby enemy as her attack target based on a priority system, becoming forced to basic attack the target and consequently move into her attack range of them to do so.
    • Disarming crowd control as well as any other lockout that would disable basic attacking will disable the forced attacks.
    • Forced action crowd control will cause her forced attacks to be either overridden or disabled, depending on the actions being forced by the debuff.

Active: Briar charges to increase Chilling Scream's damage and range, gaining damage reduction and healing herself. Chilling Scream can be recast within the duration, and does so automatically afterwards. The charge cannot be interrupted. Recast: Briar unleashes a scream in the target direction that deals magic damage to enemies hit and briefly slows them. If Chilling Scream was charged for its full duration, the scream forcefully knocks back enemies hit, and if they collide with terrain, they rebound to take massive bonus magic damage, and they are knocked airborne briefly and stunned for longer.

Active: Briar prepares to unleash a scream in the target direction, charging for up to 1 second, during which she increases Chilling Scream's damage and range, and gains 35% damage reduction and heals herself every 0.25 seconds.

Chilling Scream can be recast within the duration, and does so automatically afterwards. Chilling Scream's charge cannot be interrupted by crowd control.

SPEED:

Active: Briar kicks her pillory's hemolith a large distance toward the target direction which marks the first enemy champion hit and reveals them. If a target is hit, Briar destroys her pillory and dashes to them. Upon arrival, she creates an explosion that deals magic damage to the marked champion and enemies around them, and also fears all non-marked enemies. Briar then enters Hematomania.

---

Hematomania: Briar gains all effects of Blood Frenzy against the marked target as well as  bonus armor,  bonus magic resistance,  life steal, and  additional bonus movement speed. Hematomania lasts until the marked target dies Briar can cast Chilling Scream to end Hematomania early.

Active: Briar kicks her pillory's hemolith in the target direction, briefly granting sight of its surroundings as it travels and marking the first enemy champion hit as her prey. The mark's application disrupts the target's ongoing channels. While the target is marked, they are revealed.

If a target is hit, Briar cleanses herself from all crowd control and destroys her pillory over a cast time, afterwards dashing to them with displacement immunity. Upon arrival, she creates an explosion around the marked target that deals magic damage to them and nearby enemies and fears all non-marked targets for 1.5 seconds, during which they are slowed by 35%. She then enters a state of Hematomania.

Magic Damage:

150 / 250 / 350 (+ 50% bonus AD) (+ 120% AP)

Hematomania: Briar gains all effects of Blood Frenzy as well as  bonus armor and  bonus magic resistance equal to 20% AD,  life steal, and  additional bonus movement speed.

Life Steal:

10 / 15 / 20%

Additional Bonus Movement Speed:

10 / 20 / 30%

While in the empowered frenzy, Briar prioritizes attacking the marked target over all other units and regardless of range. If that target becomes invalid, she will shift back to her normal targeting priority until the marked target can be attacked again. Hematomania lasts until the mark is dispelled by any means, including Briar's or the target's death.

Casting Chilling Scream removes the target's mark and ends Hematomania early. Head Rush's cast does not shift her targeting priority during Hematomania.

• Briar will track the target with the dash if they change locations.
  • She will not stop tracking the target until she reaches them, as there is no maximum tracking distance.
• Briar lands 100 units in front of her target at the end of the dash.
• Briar will not initiate the second cast if she is being suppressed, is under resurrection, or is in the Realm of Death when her target is hit by the missile in the normal realm.
  • Since Certain Death cleanses herself from all crowd control when the first cast hits, she will be able to start the second cast due to removing the suppression effect.
• Briar will still dash to the target even if they die before she reaches them.
• Briar gains the displacement immunity upon starting the second cast time.
• Briar will place herself onto the ground and interrupt displacements affecting her upon starting the second cast time.
• Hematomania's targeting priorities differ slightly from that of Blood Frenzy's:
  • She will prioritize the marked target regardless of range and over all other units as long as it can be attacked.
    • If the marked target is not available, then she shifts her priority to the nearest other champion, then large monster or minion, and then any other unit.
      • If neither the marked target is valid or any other valid targets are close nearby, then she will prioritize targeting the nearest other champion, then large monster or minion, and then any other unit within a global radius.
• Starting the second cast interrupts any spells that Briar is channeling.
• The mark will expire if Hematomania's buff is dispelled.
• Casting Blood Frenzy during Hematomania will not grant any additional bonuses nor will it override Hematomania's effects.
  • Gaining Hematomania while Blood Frenzy is active will override the previous buff.
• The disrupt is 'wrapped' into a status effect that says the target is Silenced for 0.3 seconds, but it does not actually silence. It however makes sure that the disrupt is prevented by immunity to silences.
• This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the start of the cast time.

A failed experiment by the Black Rose, Briar's uncontrollable bloodlust required a special pillory to focus her frenzied mind. After years of confinement, this living weapon broke free from her restraints and unleashed herself into the world. Now she's controlled by no one—following only her hunger for knowledge and blood—and relishes the opportunities to let loose, even if reining back the frenzy isn't easy.

Whether you see her violently in-your-face tags that inspire audiences to get WILD, or her more relaxed art rife with cheeky humor, Briar's work makes an impression. As a jiangshi, she feeds off of the energy her art creates, so which style she uses really just depends on how hungry Briar is.

Briar was an early draft of Aatrox's perfection, but was deemed a “failure”—because instead of using her finely-honed mind to get back at surface-dwellers, she loves humans! Now that Briar has joined up with Anima Squad, maybe they can show her how to be more than what she was made to be.

Frenzy

Frenzy is a resource used exclusively by Briar that is only generated when she finds an enemy target for her Frenzy state (via Blood Frenzy or Certain Death) and represents the remaining duration of it. Frenzy is removed upon her state ending or otherwise being canceled.

League of Legends content

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.

League of Legends content

Attack speed ratio

The Attack speed ratio (AS ratio) adjusts the effectiveness of bonus AS from all sources. It is usually equal to the unit's base AS (level 1 with no bonuses), but tuning to a higher or lower relative value translates to more or less bonus AS received compared to other units with the same base AS.

Total AS = Base AS + Bonus AS × AS Ratio
(All values in decimal form)

---

The ingame stats HUD displays the AS ratio instead of base AS to communicate this comparative effectiveness. The Wiki opts to always list both stats and show the AS ratio as "N/A" if the two are equal.

League of Legends content

Gameplay radius

A unit's gameplay radius is a stat that most closely resembles the concept of a 'hitbox', and is the radius used for edge range effects, which include basic attacks, line collision missiles, rectangular AOEs, and others. The gameplay radius determines the reach of both incoming and outgoing effects: for example, enemies are within a unit's  basic attack range based on the edge of their gameplay radius and vice versa.

League of Legends content

Selection radius

A unit's selection radius is a stat that determines the horizontally furthest point from the center of their model that other players' cursor is allowed to be, while still maintaining the ability to select that unit.

League of Legends content

Pathing radius

A unit's pathing radius is a stat that determines the gameplay area they occupy for unit-collision and pathfinding logic. A unit's center cannot intersect with another unit's pathing radius, unless one of them is ghosted.

League of Legends content

Selection height

A unit's selection height is a stat that determines the vertically furthest point from the center of their model at the ground that other players' cursor is allowed to be, while still maintaining the ability to select that unit.

---

Gameplay in League of Legends takes place in two dimensions no matter the visuals. However, a virtual height dimension that is perpendicular to the ground creates the game's three-dimensional view, which in combination with the camera's perspective necessitates the usage of the selection height.

League of Legends content

Acquisition radius

A unit's acquisition range is a stat that determines the distance at which they will acquire attack targets when a target unit is not specified by the player.

• Auto-attacking automatically orders an idle champion to acquire enemies within this range. This can be disabled in the Settings.
• Attack-move commands scan for targets within this range while moving toward a given location.

 Attack range bonuses modify the champion's acquisition range by the same amount.

League of Legends content

Jungle

Within a drafted team, the Jungler is the champion assigned to the jungle. A Jungler needs to be able to clear jungle camps without too much difficulty and ambush other champions in lane.

Divers, Assassins, Skirmishers, and Vanguards are the most likely champions to be selected in the Jungler position.

League of Legends content

Diver

Fighters are durable and damage-focused melee champions that look to be in the thick of combat.

---

Divers are the more mobile portion of the Fighter class. Divers excel at singling out high-priority targets to blitz toward, immediately forcing those targets (and their teammates) to deal with the diver’s presence. Divers are not as durable as the tanks or juggernauts of the world, but Divers can take their fair share of punishment while bringing enough damage to be a real kill threat if left unchecked.

Examples

• Hecarim
• Jarvan IV
• Vi

Fighter (Legacy)

Fighters are durable and damage-focused melee champions that look to be in the thick of combat.

League of Legends content

Assassin (Legacy)

Assassins are fragile but agile damage-focused melee champions that look to swiftly take down their targets.

League of Legends content

Melee

Melee champions have a basic attack  range usually within 200 units. A melee attack does not use a projectile to deal damage, therefore not subject to effects that mitigate projectiles, like Wind Wall. Some champions can shift between a ranged and melee form, and certain items/runes differ for melee characters.

League of Legends content

Heal

Healing replenishes a unit's  current health, but never above their maximum health.

---

Outgoing heals can trigger bonus effects from Summon Aery, Ardent Censer, and Staff of Flowing Water.

League of Legends content

Default damage

Default damage is dealt by effects that are not otherwise classified, or are deliberately left unclassified. This most common source of default damage is splash damage from basic attacks.

---

Default damage does not interact with most other effects, such as Conqueror stacking, Luden's Companion or Arcane Comet. The main exception is:

• Omnivamp and Physical vamp (where applicable) heal for a percentage of damage dealt.

Effects triggered by damage subtypes will still occur in spite of the damage's non-reactive nature (e.g. The Black Cleaver on instances of Physical damage and Morellonomicon on instances of Magic damage).

League of Legends content

Physical damage

• Applies:
  • Black Cleaver's Carve
  • Chempunk Chainsword's, Executioner's Calling's and Mortal Reminder's Grievous Wounds
  • Omnivamp
  • Physical vamp
• Mitigated by:
  • Damage shields
  • Invulnerability

Blood Frenzy

COOLDOWN: 14 / 13 / 12 / 11 / 10

Active: Briar dashes and senses her surroundings. If there is a nearby enemy upon her arrival, she gains Blood Frenzy for a few seconds, during which she can cast Snack Attack.

Blood Frenzy: Briar breaks free from her pillory, turning berserk against the nearest enemy, prioritizing champions, and gaining ghosting,  bonus attack speed and  bonus movement speed. During this time, she also empowers her basic attacks to deal physical damage to enemies around her target.

Briar can also cast Chilling Scream to end the Blood Frenzy early.

Arena

Arena is a team deathmatch game mode organized in a tournament format that consists of eight teams of two players fighting on six different battlefields. Teams brawl in rotating combat rounds while powering themselves up with unique Augments and Items and using multiple environmental features to their advantage, in a display of both deeply tactical and highly explosive combat until the last team standing.

Regular Modes

• 8-Team Round-Robin Tournament

Battlefields — The Grand Reckoning

• Ancestral Woods
• Desert Oasis

• Koi Pond
• Magma Chamber
• Reckoner Arena

League of Legends content

Centered range

Centered range is calculated from the center of a source unit's hitbox to the center of a target unit's hitbox.

• Centered range is used for most unit-targeted abilities.
• It is less effective and may seem to have diminished reach against large units.

League of Legends content

Dash

A dash is a quick movement action by a unit in which they move to a specific direction or location while traversing the intervening distance, ignoring the boundaries of terrain.

---

The game engine does not take into account the height of the unit; dashes that depict air travel are considered to be on the ground for targeting purposes such as skill-shots.

• Dashes should not be confused with displacement effects, which are usually sourced from enemy units (and are classified as crowd control debuffs).
• Dashes are interrupted by stasis (from an enemy), knockdown, and blinks.
• Dashes are overridden by all move blocks, which includes displacements and other dashes, as well as a few other cases.
• Not all dashes can traverse terrain (e.g. Justice Punch, Searing Charge, Tumble).
• Some dashes gain increased distance when directed through terrain (e.g. Umbral Dash, Perfect Execution, Phantom Undertow).

League of Legends content

Stun

A unit that is stunned is unable to control its movement, declare attacks, cast abilities, activate items or use the summoner spells Flash, Teleport, Hexflash, and Mark / Dash for the duration.
Stun is an immobilizing effect.

---

Interrupts:	Interrupts attack windups (excluding uncancellable windups) and all channeled and charged abilities.
Reduction:	The duration is affected by Tenacity.
Resist:	Resisted by crowd control immunity and Dr. Mundo's Goes Where He Pleases.
Removal:	Removed by Cleanses.

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.

League of Legends content

On-hit effect

On-hit is an umbrella term for a type of effect that triggers on instances of basic damage, or generally upon a basic attack or certain attack-like ability hitting a target. Most on-hit effects deal proc damage or default damage, which are non-reactive (= the effects don't trigger more effects).

---

• Critical strikes are not on-hit effects. An ability listed as applying on-hit effects cannot critically strike unless otherwise stated.
•  Life steal is not an on-hit effect. Damage from on-hit effects normally does not apply life steal, unless those effects deal basic damage or are special-cased to benefit from life steal.

---

The ability counterpart to on-hit effects are ability effects, which apply on instances of ability damage.

League of Legends content

On-attack

On-attack effects refer to various instances that are triggered by the user when they finish their basic attack windup.

---

Unlike on-hit effects, on-attack effects do not require the user to land their basic attacks, only to finish their windup. Abilities that trigger on-attack effects will do so upon successfully hitting the target.

League of Legends content

Basic attack reset

An attack reset is a mechanic that will result in a champion's attack timer being reset to zero. When this effect takes place during the basic attack's cooldown and not its windup, it allows the attacker to start a second attack quicker than normal.

---

Casting certain ability and item actives can reset the attack timer. Hail of Blades generates an additional stack of its effect each time the user resets their attack timer from attack resets.

League of Legends content

Spell damage

Spell damage is the damage type dealt by most single target abilities, as well as a select few basic attacks, items and runes. Spell damage is not exclusive to being applied by purely physical, magic or true damage, and instead can be dealt by any of the three damage sub-types.

---

Many effects are triggered whenever you deal an instance of spell damage. For example:

• Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Liandry's Torment and Luden's Companion.
• Omnivamp and Physical vamp (where applicable) heal for a percentage of damage dealt.
• Arcane Comet's current cooldown is reduced by 20% per instance of spell damage you deal to a champion.

Effects triggered by damage sub-types will occur (e.g. Black Cleaver on instances of Physical damage and Morellonomicon on instances of Magic damage).

League of Legends content

Magic damage

• Applies:
  • Bloodletter's Curse's Vile Decay
  • Morellonomicon's and Oblivion Orb's Grievous Wounds
  • Omnivamp
• Triggers:
  • Hexdrinker's and Maw of Malmortius' Lifeline
• Mitigated by:
  • Damage shields
  • Invulnerability
  • Damage reduction
  •  Magic resistance
  • Magic shields

League of Legends content

Snack Attack

Active: Briar empowers her next attack during Blood Frenzy to take a bite out of the target enemy. The attack gains increased  range, deals bonus physical damage based on the target's missing health and heals Briar for a portion of the damage dealt.

League of Legends content

Berserk

A unit that is berserk will attempt to perform basic attacks on a nearby unit for the duration, during which they're unable to perform issued movement or attack commands, cast abilities, activate items or use the summoner spells Flash, Teleport, Hexflash, and Mark / Dash. Any associated effects included with basic attacks can persist beyond the Berserk duration.
Berserk is an immobilizing effect. Forced action effects cannot force the unit to perform an action that is disabled.

---

Units that are berserk search for targets within a 1000 radius of them. Sources of berserk have their own targeting priority system, including the berserked unit's allies. The target does not need to be visible for the berserked unit to attack them.

---

Interrupts:	Interrupts attack windups (excluding uncancellable windups and windups against the acquired target) and all channeled and charged abilities, as well as overrides previous Forced Action effects.
Reduction:	The duration is affected by Tenacity.
Resist:	Resisted by crowd control immunity and Dr. Mundo's Goes Where He Pleases.
Removal:	Removed by Cleanses.

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.

League of Legends content

Champion

Champions are the player-controlled characters in League of Legends. Each champion possesses unique abilities and attributes.

Ghosted

A unit that is ghosted ignores unit collision, allowing them to move through other units and other units to move through them.

League of Legends content

Chilling Scream

COOLDOWN: 16

Active: Briar charges to increase Chilling Scream's damage and range, gaining damage reduction and healing herself. Chilling Scream can be recast within the duration, and does so automatically afterwards. The charge cannot be interrupted.

Recast: Briar unleashes a scream in the target direction that deals magic damage to enemies hit and briefly slows them.

If Chilling Scream was charged for its full duration, the scream forcefully knocks back enemies hit, and if they collide with terrain, they rebound to take massive bonus magic damage, and they are knocked airborne briefly and stunned for longer.

League of Legends content

Standard sight

Standard sight reveals units through Fog of War and brush, but not stealth. It does not bypass nearsight effects.

League of Legends content

Uncancellable windup

Some effects cause a basic attack to have an uncancellable windup. Unlike normal basic attacks and similar to the cast time of a spell, the windup of these attacks cannot be interrupted by neither the user themselves nor any status effect, other than death, polymorph and Quinn's Vault, and sometimes untargetability and range.

---

Any effect that would disrupt an attack's windup, aside from the ones noted above, are ignored by basic attacks with uncancellable windups. If the attack doesn't lock out other abilities, they may be used normally, and the basic attack will hit during the ability cast.

League of Legends content

Critical strike

Critical strike refers to an effect that deals increased damage under specific circumstances, denoted as   critical strike damage. The most common form of critical strike occurs on basic attacks, which triggers based on  critical strike chance.

---

By default, a critical strike deals 175% of the normal damage. Critical damage modifiers such as Infinity Edge can increase this percentage.

League of Legends content

Monster

Monsters are neutral units in League of Legends. Unlike minions, monsters do not fight for either team, and will only do so if aggroed (provoked) – with the exception of the Rift Scuttler, which simply runs away when attacked.

League of Legends content

Minion

Minions are autonomous units that spawn periodically from their nexus and advance along the lanes toward the enemy nexus. They basic attack any enemy unit or structure they find in their way, but can be killed for gold.
There are four kind of minions: melee minions, caster minions, siege minions and super minions.

League of Legends content

Head Rush

COOLDOWN: 13 / 12 / 11 / 10 / 9

Active: Briar leaps to the target unit. If the target is an enemy, she deals magic damage, stuns them briefly, and additionally reduces their  armor and  magic resistance for a few seconds.

Head Rush applies on-hit and on-attack effects.

League of Legends content

Certain Death

COOLDOWN: 120 / 100 / 80

Active: Briar kicks her pillory's hemolith a large distance toward the target direction which marks the first enemy champion hit and reveals them.

If a target is hit, Briar destroys her pillory and dashes to them. Upon arrival, she creates an explosion that deals magic damage to the marked champion and enemies around them, and also fears all non-marked enemies. Briar then enters Hematomania.

Hematomania: Briar gains all effects of Blood Frenzy against the marked target as well as  bonus armor,  bonus magic resistance,  life steal, and  additional bonus movement speed. Hematomania lasts until the marked target dies

Briar can cast Chilling Scream to end Hematomania early.

League of Legends content

Stealth

Stealth conceals a unit from enemies' view and prevents them from selecting it, and grants ghosting while not seen. Stealth allows one to avoid and ambush enemies or re-position in a fight.

• There are three categories of stealth, based on the conditions necessary to gain sight of the user: Camouflage, Invisibility, and stealthed traps. True sight invariably reveals stealthed units.
• Certain actions may break stealth, such as starting an attack, casting an ability, using certain item actives, and others.
• A stealthed unit's character model briefly shimmers for every instance of damage taken while stealthed. This shimmering does not make the unit selectable nor remove the effect, it only compromises the unit's position.

  ---

Stealth is not a form of untargetability; units can still be hit by effects that do not require sight of targets, such as auto-targeted, direction-targeted (skillshots) and location-targeted effects.

League of Legends content

Critical strike

Critical strike refers to an effect that deals increased damage under specific circumstances, denoted as   critical strike damage. The most common form of critical strike occurs on basic attacks, which triggers based on  critical strike chance.
