Raijin’s Ability

Passive: Charged Tempo

Raijin shortens the cooldown of all active abilities (including the one that was just used) by 2s for every 5 abilities cast. The radius of Raijin’s Basic Attacks is also wider (+2).

Skill 1: Percussive Storm

A line of thunder, followed by another, then two at once, each getting broader as it moves, is released when Raijin bangs his drums. Thunder strikes enemies, dealing Magical Damage to them.

Skill 2: Raiju

By dismissing his ally Raiju, who is hiding in the adversary’s navel, Raijin marks a specific enemy. While dozing off, Raiju slows down and shows Raijin’s team the target on the minimap. When Raijin strikes the target again, Raiju awakens and claws his way out, slowing and wounding the target and five adjacent foes while tripling his speed. The damage dealt to enemies by the bouncing Raiju is reduced.

Skill 3: Thunder Crash

While ascending into the skies, Raijin commands a lightning bolt to crash down at his ground target spot, captivating foes. He descends there shortly after, dealing a large amount of damage to all around opponents.

Ultimate: Taiko Drums

In order to call forth claps of thunder, Raijin beats his drums four times while flying above the battlefield. He has a choice between three beats for each hit: 100% damage if you beat one. Beat 2: 50% Damage and 50% Taunt a third beat: 30% Damage and Fear Raijin experiences a 20% Movement Speed Slow while in the air.
