Ahri’s abilities in League of Legends

Passive: Essence Theft
 

Whenever Ahri kills a minion or a monster she stacks an essence fragment, when she reaches nine stacks her next spell will consume these stacks and healer for between 35 and 95 HP plus 25% of her AP.

When Ahri gets a champion take down within three seconds of damaging the enemy champion, she'll also consumed their essence to heal for between 75 and 165 HP, plus 30% of her AP too!

Q: Orb of Deception
 

Ahri throws an orb in a target direction which deals magic damage before coming back dealing true damage when it's returning to Ahri. This will deal up to 148 magic damage which also scales with 45% of Ahri’s AP.

The true damage when the Orb is returning is the same damage numbers as it applied in magic damage on the way out.

W: Fox-Fire
 

When using her W, Ahri gains 40% bonus movement speed that decays over a period of two seconds and also summons three flames that circle her for 2.5 seconds.

after a quarter of a second each flame surrounding Ahri targets of visible enemy, or after 0.4 seconds targets the closest visible enemy in range which deals magic damage over 150 plus 30% of Ahri’s AP.

The priority of each flame goes enemy champions hit by Ahri’s E, then enemy champions in general, then minions that would die if hit, and then the target of Ahri’s last basic attack within the past three seconds.

E: Charm
 

Ahri throws forward a heart-shaped projectile that deals a small amount of magic damage to the first enemy hit. This also charms them and slows them by 65% drawing them towards Ahri’s current location.

At max rank this charm will increase to a duration of two seconds!

R: Spirit Rush
 

Ahri dashes to the target location and fires off essence to three nearby visible enemies, which each deal 120 magic damage plus 35% of Ahri’s AP.

This can be cast twice more within 15 seconds of activating the first dash, with aone second cooldown between the casts. If Ahri gains an enemy champion take down, then the recast duration is extended by 10 seconds and grants an additional dash, up to a maximum of three.

Recasting the ability dashes Ahri to the target location as it did with the initial cast.
