Notes

  • The effect occurs a static delay after the basic attack was fired (independently of Melee role melee or Ranged role ranged), and will occur even if the attack was blocked (i.e Wind Wall Wind Wall) or it vanished (i.e Untargetable icon untargetability).
  • The effects occur on basic attack and do not interact with abilities that act like a basic attack (i.e Steel Tempest Steel Tempest, Parrrley Parrrley, ability granted Headshot Headshot).
  • The attack that gets Guinsoo's Rageblade's stacks to 6 will benefit from the additional on-hit effect.
  • One-use on-hit effects, such as Siphoning Strike Siphoning Strike and Sheen Sheen, remain one-use, as the on-hit effect will be consumed by the initial strike and be unavailable for the second.
  • It is important to know the difference between an on-hit effect (which Phantom Hit will apply) and an on-attack effect (which Phantom Hit will not), these effects are listed below.

Updated up to Kai'Sa Kai'Sa.

  • Phantom Hit does not cause you to attack twice. Effects that trigger when you attack or whose counters increase when you attack will only apply once per attack, regardless of Phantom Hit. This affects abilities such as:
  • For effects such as Vi's Vi's Denting Blows Denting Blows, the game will pro-actively use the champion's empowered attack animation if the attack would trigger the effect due to Phantom Hit - e.g. Vi Vi will perform her power animation on every 2nd attack (with Phantom Hit).

  • Strategy

    • Guinsoo's Rageblade's Guinsoo's Rageblade's unique combination of traits make it something of a niche item. It is best on basic attack-based champions who benefit from both attack damage and ability power and rely on on-hit effects for a major portion of their damage (Jax Jax, Master Yi Master Yi and Kayle Kayle). For such a champion, however, it is recommended to build the item as soon as possible, as the power spike it creates is usually enormous.
    • The Phantom hit will proc both Titanic Hydra Titanic Hydra and Ravenous Hydra Ravenous Hydra essentially doubling the area of effect damage, however the Titanic Hydra Titanic Hydra is superior in this aspect as it also deals on-hit damage on the primary target.
