Plants beyond the first attacking a single target deal only 50% damage.

RangedRanged champions have a basic attack 
range usually beyond 300 units. Many deal damage through projectiles, which are subject to mitigating effects like 
Wind Wall. Some champions can shift between a ranged and melee form, and certain items/runes differ for ranged characters.
MeleeMelee 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.
Spell damage
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).
Area damageArea damage is the damage type dealt by most area of effect abilities, as well as a select few basic attacks, items and runes. Area 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.
- Spell vamp heals with one-third effectiveness.
- Many items effects are triggered whenever you deal an instance of area damage (i.e. ability effects).
- For example: Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Liandry's Torment and Luden's Companion.
- Compared to single target spell damage, area damage does not trigger
Muramana.
- For example:
- Arcane Comet's current cooldown is reduced by 10% whenever you deal an instance of area damage to a champion.
- Area damage is reduced by 25% versus
Jax's 
Counter Strike. - Many champion summoned units such as
Elise's 
Spiderlings, 
Yorick's 
Mist Walkers, and 
Naafiri's 
Dune Hounds take reduced damage from area damage.
Effects triggered by damage subtypes will occur (i.e. physical, magic or true).
Persistent damage magic damage sub-type, but this is not guaranteed.Many effects are triggered whenever you deal an instance of persistent 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 cooldown is reduced by 5% whenever you deal an instance of persistent damage.
Effects triggered by damage sub-types will occur (e.g. The Black Cleaver on instances of Physical damage and Morellonomicon on instances of Magic damage).
