Ultimate Spellbook

Ultimate Spellbook is a Featured Game Mode in League of Legends. Players choose one additional, random champion's ultimate ability to deploy in chaotic duels and teamfights.^[1]

Overview[edit | edit source]

Map: Summoner's Rift 5v5
Draft type: 10 Blind-Ban draft
Mode: Classic

Features[edit | edit source]

One summoner spell slot is occupied by a Placeholder Ult-ernate Summoner Spell that cannot be swapped out with another summoner spell. Junglers instead have a Placeholder and Attack-Smite.
At the start of the match, you will be given 30 seconds to choose from a pool of 4 ultimates.
- If you do not confirm to take the ultimate you have selected, that ultimate will be taken automatically.
- If you do not select any ultimate, the first ultimate is taken by default.
Once an ultimate has been picked, your Placeholder Ult-ernate Summoner Spell is switched to Loading Spell, which is then shortly after switched to the Ult-ernate Summoner Spell version of the ultimate you chose.
- You can still rank up your own champion's ultimate.
- The icons of Ult-ernate Summoner Spells in-game are not the icon of the specific champion's ultimate ability. They use the champion's portrait icon instead for better clarity.
All Ult-ernate Summoner Spells do not have resource costs and have an initial cooldown of 131 seconds, increased to 211 if you have Attack-Smite.
- These ultimates can be used even before reaching level 6.
At 8:00, all players are offered another selection of 4 ultimates to replace their current ultimate with a different one. This occurs every 6 minutes thereafter.
- The selection is offered only while either dead or at the fountain.
- The ultimate's cooldown is refreshed after selection.
- The player's current ultimate is always the first ultimate offered in the selection, meaning that the player may choose to keep the ultimate they have by selecting the first slot in the pool or replace it with a different one available from the rest of the pool (3 ultimates).
  - If the current ultimate is on cooldown, it will still be refreshed after choosing to keep it.
  - Each time a player swaps their current ultimate for a different one, their champion gains 300, 5 – 35 (based on level) adaptive force, and 20 bonus armor and bonus magic resistance permanently.
    - This reward is only granted for up to 4 swaps.
All champions have 80 summoner spell haste, bonus health, 40 bonus movement speed out-of-combat.
You can see everyone's chosen Ult-ernate Summoner Spells on both the scoreboard and next to their health bar.
You start at level 3 and with 950.
Passive experience and gold are increased.
Nearby enemy minion deaths grant a small amount of gold to champions that did not score the killing blow.
Slaying Baron Nashor or Elder Dragon, or acquiring the Dragon Soul, rewards your team with an Ulternate Summoner Charge.
- Ulternate Summoner Charge: After casting your Ulter-nate Summoner Spell, consume this effect to refresh the cooldown of the spell after 3 seconds of having casted it.
Turret Platings fall off at 9:00.
Rift Scuttler spawns at 3:00 and has a respawn timer of 90 seconds.
Voidgrubs spawn at 3:30 and have a respawn timer of 150 seconds.
Dragon spawns at 4:00 and has a respawn timer of 240 seconds.
Baron Nashor spawns at 10:00 and has a respawn timer of 180 seconds.
- Slaying Baron Nashor leaves behind an Eye of the Herald.
Unsealed Spellbook is disabled in this mode and is exchanged with First Strike.

Attack-Smite[edit | edit source]

Junglers have "Placeholder and Attack-Smite" instead of Placeholder Ult-ernate Summoner Spell in champion select. It gets replaced by the Ult-ernate Summoner Spell that they select at the beginning of the game and causes jungle items ( ) to gain a new passive effect named Attack Smite.

Attack Smite: Damaging the Blue Sentinel, Red Brambleback, or Rift Scuttler, or epic monsters, to below or while they are below 600 / 900 / 1200 (based on jungle pet evolution) health executes them. Additionally, you receive 50% reduced gold from lane minions for the first 210 seconds of the game.
- Only affects the Blue Sentinel and Red Brambleback within the user's respective side of the jungle.
- This effect does not allow Ivern to bypass Friend of the Forest's grove maturation timer.

Notes[edit | edit source]

Ultimates behave as if they have been Hijacked by Sylas, the table above only list interactions not present on the ability.
Ult-ernate Summoner Spells by default scale with 80% of their regular ratios (unless stated otherwise).
Chosen ultimates have modified scalings in this mode, based upon the reduced ratios:
- Ultimates that scale with AP but not AD, now also scale with AD.
  - These ultimates now scale with 2.414% bonus AD per 1% AP.
- Ultimates that scale with AD but not AP, now also scale with AP.
  - These ultimates now scale with 0.6% AP per 1% total AD and 0.4% AP per 1% bonus AD.
- Ultimates that scale with health but not AP nor AD, now also scale with AD and AP.
  - These ultimates now scale with 13.158125% bonus AD and 8.198125% AP per 1% bonus health.
- Ultimates that do not scale with anything will continue to scale with nothing.
- Scalings based on the enemy's health will not be reduced.
  - AD and AP scalings that change an enemy's health scaling are reduced as usual.
Ult-ernate Summoner Spells level up as your champion's personal ultimate levels up to rank 2 and 3 at levels 11 and 16 and benefit from summoner spell haste as well as ultimate haste.
Ultimates are treated as summoner spells for the purposes of effects that interact with them, such as Nimbus Cloak.
Axiom Arc's Flux does not reduce the cooldown of Ult-ernate Summoner Spells.
Ult-ernate Summoner Spells are not applicable to drop as Spell Shards for Zoe's Spell Thief.
The following ultimates will grant a permanent 5 – 20 (based on level) adaptive force, bonus armor, and bonus magic resistance after their initial cooldown at the start of the game has elapsed:
Your champion's ultimate will not be available in the pool of ultimates.
The leftmost ultimate in the offered selection is weighted depending on a champion's class in order to avoid sub-optimal choices.^[2]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

V11.23

Ultimate Spellbook returns to live servers from November 18, 2021 (1:00 PM PT) to January 10, 2022 (11:59 PM PT).
User Interface
- Bug Fix: Clicking the "Confirm" button upon selecting an Ult-ernate Summoner Spell will now play an SFX.
Map
- Removed: No longer uses the Ruined Summoner's Rift map.
Dragons
- Removed: No longer uses the Ruined Dragon. A dragon of only one type will spawn once every 3:30 minutes.
  - Dragon Slayer grants a buff that deals 0.5 / 1 / 1.5 / 2% (based on stacks) of target's maximum health magic damage once every second against turrets whenever you deal damage to them.
  - Slaying 4 ruined dragons grants the Dragon Soul:
    - Upon taking fatal damage, enter resurrection for 1.5 seconds, during which you are invulnerable, untargetable, and unable to act, and afterwards restore all of your health and take continuous internalraw damage (300 second cooldown).
      - Guardian Angel and Chronoshift will take priority over this effect. Zombie state effects will not.
- New Effect: The first 2 dragons will now be random. The elemental rift will either be the Chemtech Rift or Hextech Rift and the final dragons will either be the Chemtech Drake or Hextech Drake.
- New Effect: Slaying epic monsters now grants a buff that deals 0.3% maximum health magic damage once every second against turrets whenever you damage them.
Summoner spells
- Junglers now have Auto-Smite instead of Placeholder Ult-ernate Summoner Spell in champion select. Auto-Smite gets replaced by the Ult-ernate that they select at the beginning of the game, granting a buff that is also called Auto-Smite.
  - Auto Smite: Causes damage dealt against Blue Sentinel, Red Brambleback, Rift Scuttler, or epic monsters while they are below 450 health to deal 450 bonus true damage.
    - Only affects the Blue Sentinel and Red Brambleback within the user's respective side of the jungle.
  - When Ivern takes Auto-Smite, he will not be able to use it to bypass Friend of the Forest's grove maturation timer. However, freeing a qualifying jungle camp will trigger Auto-Smite, granting him the heal and jungle starter item stack that a regular Smite would.
Items
- Removed: Emberknife and Hailblade.
- Obsidian Edge - New item
  - Replaces Emberknife and Hailblade.
  - Requires Placeholder and Auto-Smite to buy.
  - Cost: 350
  - Stats: 8% omnivamp against monsters
  - Unique Passive - Sear: Damaging monsters burns them for 60 (+ 30% AP) (+ 5% bonus AD) (+ 2% bonus health) magic damage over 5 seconds. Omnivamp against monsters provided by this item is not reduced by area of effect damage.
  - Unique Passive - Auto Path: Triggering Auto Smite 5 times consumes this item, granting all of the item's effects permanently as well as increasing the threshold and damage to 900.
  - Unique Passive - Huntsman: Killing large monsters grants 60 bonus experience. The first large monster killed grants an additional 150 bonus experience, for a total of 210. If you are at least 2 levels below the average level of the game, large monster kills grant 50 bonus experience per level below the average level of all players in the game. If your gold from minions is greater than 40% your gold from monsters, a lane minion will grant 13 less gold and 50% reduced experience. This penalty is removed at 20 minutes.
  - Recoup: Regenerate up to 8 – 18 (based on level) mana per second when in the jungle or river, based on missing mana.
