Tips and Tricks
Ice Vortex is a much larger range slow. Additionally, it is a Veil of Discord that targets the ground and reduces magic resistance. When you are pushing or defending, throw them all over the place to make foes more susceptible to magic harm. Due to the vision it offers, Ice Vortex is a fantastic scouting tool as well.
Enemy Blink Daggers can be temporarily neutralized by using Ice Blast.
In most close-quarters combat situations, aim your ult farther than you believe it should go. When an adversary is in the path of the bullet, they will get frosted, making the Shatter debuff sometimes more useful than the nuke. Additionally, the Ice Blast projectile has a minimal effective range, which makes it incredibly easy for individuals to outrun it as soon as they see it.
Ancient Apparition’s Ability
COLD FEET
An enemy unit is given a frozen hex that delivers damage over time but can be removed by moving away from the original cast position. After 4 seconds, the enemy unit will be stunned and frozen in place if it doesn’t travel outside of the designated range.
ICE VORTEX
Creates an icy energy vortex that slows and amplifies magic damage dealt to foes within its range.
CHILLING TOUCH
Increases the attack range, does powerful magic damage, and slows mobility for Ancient Apparition.
ICE BLAST
Sends a tracer flying toward any point on the battlefield; it must be reactivated to indicate the region that will be hit by a destructive hailstorm. The explosion will be more powerful the further the tracer travels. Enemies who are hit by the explosion or come in contact with the ice hailball as it moves are Frostbitten, suffering damage and being unable to regenerate or heal. A Frostbitten unit will instantaneously shatter if its health falls below a particular threshold.
ICE VORTEX – SHARD ABILITY UPGRADE
Deals 40 DPS to Ice Vortex and slows attack speed by 20.
CHILLING TOUCH – SCEPTER ABILITY UPGRADE
Decreases mana cost by half and removes cooldown.
