Abilities

Edit

Inherent Glamour

Inherent Glamour
STATIC COOLDOWN:	25 − 10 (based on level)

Innate: Neeko is offered a selection of allied champions to take their appearance. She can choose a new champion to switch her disguise or select herself to deactivate her disguise while Inherent Glamour is not on cooldown.

While disguised, Neeko can use basic attacks while keeping her form. Taking damage from enemy champions, or casting either Blooming Burst or Tangle-Barbs or initiating Pop Blossom's leap breaks the illusion and puts Inherent Glamour on full  cooldown.

Disguising as a champion or deactivating the disguise places Inherent Glamour on a 2-second cooldown.

Info

Targeting input	Passive

• Neeko will copy aesthetics as well as superficial mechanical statistics. She will fake a number of readings:
  • Health bar (original's current amount becomes her apparent maximum)
  • Secondary resource - e.g. mana, energy or none at all (original's current amount becomes her apparent maximum)
  • Stats
  • Buffs and debuffs with their respective icons and VFX/SFX (there are exceptions)
  • Kill feed icon
• A number of attributes she actually adopts are:
  • Default transformation toggle (non-innate)
  • Voice lines
  • Character interactions (jokes, taunts, dances, laughs, toggle effects), as well as their Recall animation
    • Neeko can copy Samira's taunt animation but she will not actually throw the coin via the Taunt ability.
  • Base movement speed
  • Attack range (will not adopt longer attack range)
  • Size (including size modifiers and base champion size)
