Notes

• Cleave has a radius of ~385; Crescent has a radius of 400.
  • Cleave is centered on the target; Crescent is centered on the user.
• Activating Crescent does not reset the auto-attack timer. Rather, the effect uses the champion's auto attack animation to display the effect. 
  • Crescent casts faster as you gain more attack speed.
• This item shares the Cleave and Crescent effects with Tiamat.
• This item's passive and active cannot be used by ranged champions.
  • Shapeshifting champions can only use Cleave and Crescent while classified as melee. This includes Kayle, who is considered a ranged champion while Righteous Fury is active, Nidalee when using Aspect of the Cougar, Jayce while in Hammer stance, Elise while in Spider Form, and Quinn while her ultimate Tag Team is activated.
• Cleave's damage is based on the attack damage champion statistic, not from actual damage dealt on the attack—it therefore doesn't benefit from critical strikes or on-hit effects
• Cleave's damage does not trigger on-hit effects, except for life steal.
  • Cleave's and Crescent's damage procs The Black Cleaver's passive effect, which is not an on-hit.
  • Similar to how spell vamp interacts with area-of-effect, this item currently applies only half your life steal.
• Cleave will not trigger if it has triggered on a different target in the last 0.05 seconds.
  • This affects abilities such as Shyvana's Twin Bite (Dragon form).
  • There is no cooldown on triggering the effect on a single target, such as Double Strike or  Shyvana's Twin Bite (Human Form).
• Parrrley procs Ravenous Hydra as well as Tiamat despite the fact that the ability has a range.
  • Using  Gangplank's Parrrley with Ravenous Hydra will give you extra gold for every single minion killed with Ravenous Hydra's passive effect.

Trivia

• Searching for "no damage" in the shop will bring up Ravenous Hydra. It is unknown if this is a bug or intended (it is possibly due to the item's active is limited to the attack damage of the champion thus deals "no damage" until it is owned by a champion.)
