Jarvan IV
GameplayJarvan IV is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities
- Martial Cadence's damage is based on the current health of the target before any damage of the attack has been dealt.
- Martial Cadence's damage is dealt after the main attack damage.
- If the target dies to the main attack damage, the additional damage will not be dealt.
- The empowered attack will not trigger against structures.
- The armor reduction is applied after the damage. The damage dealt does not benefit from it in this case.
- This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the end of the cast time.
- Dragon Strike will still pull Jarvan IV to Demacian Standard even if he is immobilized or grounded.
- Flash will interrupt the dash to a Demacian Standard but Jarvan IV will still knock up and damage enemies he comes in contact with at the new location.
- Casting Flash right before the dash begins will cause Jarvan IV to be pulled to the flag from the new position.
- Enemies already hit by Dragon Strike cannot be affected more than once.
- The knockup also slightly moves the target, landing 50-100 units in a random direction.
- The attack speed granted from a deployed Demacian Standard stacks additively with Demacian Standard's passive permanent bonus attack speed to Jarvan, but the aura from multiple Demacian Standards does not stack.
- The flag has 13.6 pathing radius and 65 gameplay radius.
- The gameplay radius matters to Dragon Strike.
- The gameplay radius matters to
- Demacian Standard can be targeted by allied abilities ( Teleport, Safeguard). The target type is the same as a minion.
- Demacian Standard is untargetable to enemies.
- The initial cast and the manual recast count as ability activations for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse.
- If the ability is not manually recasted, the secondary effect will trigger without being considered as an ability activation.
- Cataclysm will not deal damage, generate terrain, nor refund its cooldown if Jarvan IV is killed while leaping.
- The perimeter is made up of 24 units with 95 pathing radius, 65 gameplay radius and 1350 sight radius each. Only every other unit is rendered visible.
- Searing Charge will not destroy the whole ring but only the part that Ornn collides with.

Trivia

- A tab for Jarvan IV can be faintly seen at the top during Maokai's Art Spotlight.
- In-universe Demacian naming convention does not mirror real-life's European royalty and nobility's naming convention; as the current Jarvan should not have gotten the regnal number IV before his coronation.
- The terrain created by Cataclysm is made of 24 minions to make sure that no one can squeeze through the wall.[2]
- The old visual effects of Golden Aegis was once made up of little ghosts due being a recolored copy of Death's Caress.[3]
