Kestrel’s Ability

Adrenaline

Kestrel lowers her energy requirements by 10% each time she completes a basic attack. After five rounds of stacking, this wears off and disappears.

Glimmershot

The first target in the arrow’s course is struck by the kestrel’s shot. After then, the arrow explodes, causing crystal damage to spread outward in a line.

• System of ammunition: Kestrel can fire repeatedly without reloading. Just pause using her bow for 2.4 seconds to reload.
• Depending on assault speed, reload time is reduced.
• Basic-attack effects are triggered by primary impact.
• Reduces the damage done to minions.

Active Camo

Kestrel obtains extra move speed and stealth instantaneously. When she attacks an opponent hero inside of an invisible mist trap, it explodes, dealing damage and temporarily stunning the target for 0.8 seconds.

• If Kestrel has been damaged by a hero in the previous 2.5 seconds, she is unable to use this ability.
• The extra weapon power reduces this window.
• Glimmershot’s main effect is a 1.5s reduction in Active Camo’s cooldown time.
• Trap must arm for 1.2 seconds before detonating.
• The trap has eyes and can detect adversaries.
• Kestrel is invisible, but turrets, scout traps, and flare guns can still spot her.

One Shot One Kill

Kestrel sprints forward and releases a single, potent arrow that strikes the first enemy hero, big beast, or building in its path.

• This hits a target, revealing it and giving Kestrel full stacks of adrenaline.
• This power deals weapon damage as its base damage.
• Reduces damage to structures by 50%.

Kestrel’s Tips and tricks

Kestrel performs well when sneak attacking or in the backline. Take advantage of her range!

Drop Active Camo there, then try to lure an enemy there so you can light it up.

Use One Shot One Kill to execute from a distance. You will perish before the ability activates if you are too close to the opposing jungler.
