I can't believe someone would even take the time to link every skill to other champs...

First of all, when I was creating Xena, none of your speculations came into mind, but I must admit I took some inspiration from some of my favorite heroes.

Her Innate was inspired by a concept of Priscilla I read before, that upon dying, Priscilla's corpse explodes dealing damge and poisoning enemies

Her Q was inspired by Lulu's Glitterlance, and because most void champs' kits includes a silence I think it's just to give her one

Her W was actually insired by a Defense of the Acients Hero, Kael'thas

Her E was kinda inspired by Janna on how she gives MS to her self with her Zephyr(W)

Her R was inspired by the ultimate of another Defense of the Acients Hero, Puck the Fairy Dragon
