Key Insights

- IfQhits an enemy, subsequentQcasts deal bonus magic damage.
- Auto attacks reduceQ's cooldown by 0.25 seconds, increased to 1 second vs. enemy champions.
- W's bonus movespeed doubles over time.
Strengths
- Excels at skirmishes sinceQcan be spammed over and over, especially whileP's bonuses are active.

Weaknesses
