With the highly anticipated League of Legends patch 14.22 update being just around the corner, Riot Games has officially revealed the abilities of Ambessa, the newest addition to the LoL Champion roster.
While the LoL patch 14.22 update is set to introduce a ton of new changes to the MOBA, Ambessa is certain to steal the spotlight with her unique kit that enables her to swiftly maneuver through teamfights and catch enemy backliners off-guard.
In this article, we take a look at all the abilities of Ambessa Medarda, the new League Champion.
LoL Ambessa Abilities Explained
As already confirmed by Riot Games, the abilities of Ambessa are as follows:
- Passive – Drakehound’s Step
- Entering an attack or movement command while casting an ability will cause Ambessa to dash a short distance once the ability is cast. Casting an ability grants her next attack bonus range, damage, and attack speed, and refunds energy.
- Q – Cunning Sweep / Sundering Slam
- Ambessa sweeps her twin drakehounds in a semicircle in front of her, dealing bonus damage to enemies hit by the blades.
- Striking an enemy will transform the next cast of this ability for a short period of time, causing her to slam her twin drakehounds down in a line in front of her, dealing bonus damage to the first enemy hit.
- W – Repudiation
- Ambessa gains a shield, briefly braces herself, and then slams the ground to damage nearby enemies. If she blocked any non-minion damage while bracing herself, this ability will deal increased damage.
- E – Lacerate
- Ambessa whips her twin drakehounds around herself, damaging and slowing nearby enemies. Initiating Drakehound’s Step from this ability causes her to strike a second time at the end of its dash.
- R – Public Execution
- Ambessa blinks to the farthest enemy champion in a line of her choosing and suppresses them upon her arrival. She then slams the enemy into the ground where they take damage and are stunned.
LoL Ambessa Release Date
As we have already mentioned earlier, Ambessa will join the LoL roster alongside the patch 14.22 update, which will hit the live servers around November 6, 2024.
