Ability power (AP) is a stat that increases the effectiveness of some abilities, items, and runes. Effects that scale with ability power receive a bonus proportional to its value. For instance, a unit that has 50 ability power and a spell that deals 100 (+ 20% AP) damage will cause that damage value to increase to 110 (100 + (50 × 0.2) = 110).
Every champion starts with 0 ability power, and level-ups do not grant additional ability power.
Ability power can be increased with abilities, items and runes. It stacks additively, and each bonus point acquired directly affects its statistic.
Ability power as scaling
Many abilities, items, and runes benefit from ability power through their AP ratios. Note that ability power does not always apply to magic damage; ratios can be assigned to any damage type.

Trivia
- The ability with the largest AP ratio is , with a maximum AP ratio of (+ 615% AP) counting initial cast of (+ 75% AP) and the target taking damage from all 45 ticks of aura damage ((+ 12% AP) per tick).
- The second and third bounces of scale exponentially, however the low base ratio means it will not beat other spells at normal levels of AP.
