Notes

  • Ignore Pain reduces and stores damage that is mitigated by shields.
  • Ignore Pain will refresh the user's combat status for every instance of damage it deals to them, delaying and interrupting certain effects that require the user to be out of combat.
  • Ignore Pain may kill the user as the stored damage can reduce their health below 1.
  • Ignore Pain will store damage even if it is mitigated by shields.
    • The bleed damage will only be mitigated by normal shields and not other shield types, including physical and magic shields.
  • Each instance of damage received is stored and dealt individually by Ignore Pain, regardless on when other instances of damage were taken.
  • Ignore Pain's effect applies after the mitigation from Frozen Heart's Frozen Heart's, Randuin's Omen's Randuin's Omen's, and Warden's Mail's Warden's Mail's Rock Solid.
  • Ignore Pain's damage instances do not interrupt Recall's Recall's channel.
  • Defy heals the user in 0.25-second intervals.
  • Triggering Defy grants a buff that stores all of its incoming healing.
    • If Defy is triggered again while the buff is active, it will be refreshed and the new heal value will be added to the remaining heal.

Map-Specific Differences

Arena differences edit
  • Ability haste changed to 10.
  • Attack damage changed to 45.
  • Defy heal changed to Champions stunned with Pyromania (P)50% bonus AD.
  • New Effect: Defy's heal now scales with Multiple champions hit with Between Worlds (R)30% AP.

Strategy

  • Death's Dance's Death's Dance's damage mitigation passive is most effective in a situation where an enemy inflicts a lot of damage to you within a short period of time.
    • As a result of this, a portion of the damage they deal to you gets stored and is delayed until a few seconds after. This slightly increases your time to react and deploy counter measures such as by healing and shielding. At the same time, you have a longer time window for retaliation against the enemy who dealt that damage to you. Killing that enemy allows you to successfully mitigate that damage taken and additionally heal.
  • Death's Dance's Death's Dance's damage reduction should not be overestimated if enemies have more than enough damage to kill you. This means it is possible for you to be killed even while reducing damage, and in some cases that stored damage will deal lethal damage.
