'''Dragon Slayer''' is a team-wide stacking neutral [[buff]] granted by the {{ui|Dragon}}. It is available only on [[Summoner's Rift]].

Slaying a dragon will grant a buff depending on the element ("color") of the dragon; the buff can stack up to four times per element. These buffs are granted to the entire team (of the player who killed the dragon) and last until the end of the game.

|-|Dragon Soul=
{{Buff header|Dragon Soul}}
The '''Dragon Soul''' is a team-wide stacking neutral [[buff]] granted by the {{ui|Dragon}}. It is available only on [[Summoner's Rift]].

|-|Aspect of the Dragon=
{{Buff header|Aspect of the Dragon}}'''Aspect of the Dragon''' is a team-wide neutral [[buff]] granted by the {{ui|Elder Dragon}}. It is available only on [[Summoner's Rift]].

The buff is lost upon [[death]] and cannot be transferred from champion to champion, unlike the {{bi|Crest of Insight}} and {{bi|Crest of Cinders}} buffs.

** {{uis|Ocean Drake}} was '''Heart of Oceans''' and '''Dragon's Dominance'''.
