Notes

Item VFX

• Banshee's Veil's passive will carry over to clones if it was created while the spell shield was active.
• Banshee's Veil's passive will block the vision-based components of Nocturne's Paranoia or Twisted Fate's Destiny.
• Banshee's Veil's goes on cooldown if the user dies.

Strategy

Main article: Crowd control

• Banshee's Veil is a strong item against magic damage but is most valued for its ability to prevent crowd control or counter poke damage. As such it is highly recommended to build Banshee's Veil when you are being focused by crowd control effects, or when the enemy has initiation or pulling abilities like Enchanted Crystal Arrow and Rocket Grab. Combined with Guardian Angel, Banshee's Veil will make you very resilient to both magic and physical damage.
• During the late game, Banshee's Veil is a great addition for AP carries because it can block important crowd control abilities (e.g. Impale, Bandage Toss, Rocket Grab), or in other words, it can prevent the enemy from initiating on you.
