Strategy
ability to disable turrets creates opportunities for aggressive turret dive maneuvers. Support roles may choose to invest in the item to allow their team's assassins and other divers to focus on more offensive and defensive stats. Independent champions who are powerful turret divers and enjoy high AP ratios (i.e. or ) may take to set up their own dives.
- Coordinate your attacks to make the most of the active effect's 2.5 second timer.
- Turrets deal increasing damage on successive hits; resets the damage increase when disabling the turret.
- If there are 2 turrets in range, as there are with Nexus Turrets in Summoners' Rift, both turrets are disabled.
- This strategy can be practiced alone by some champions at the cost of some health (or no cost if the turret is already at low health)
can be used for backdoor attempts as the team can siege a turret without the support of a minion wave by using the active.
