Phantom Assassin’s Ability
STIFLING DAGGER
Throws a dagger that slows the movement of the target unit, deals physical damage equal to 65.0+25.0% of the Phantom Assassin’s attack damage, and activates attack abilities and equipment.
PHANTOM STRIKE
Teleports to a unit, whether friendly or hostile, and if it’s an enemy unit, gives additional attack speed and lifesteal while attacking.
BLUR
Phantom Assassin turns her attention inward, which improves her capacity to deflect opponent blows. When used, her body will become blurry, making her difficult to notice until she is close to opposing heroes, towers, or outposts.
Decreases in value when combined with other sources of evasion.
FAN OF KNIVES
Phantom Assassin unleashes razor-sharp blades surrounding her, breaking on hit and dealing a portion of each victim’s maximum HP.
