Ravenous Flock

TARGET RANGE: 1125 SPEED: 1200 COOLDOWN: 10

	Innate - Ravenous: Swain can periodically target a nearby immobilized enemy champion to rip out a Soul Fragment from them, dealing them 20 − 105 (based on level) (+ 30% AP) magic damage and pulling them 290-units towards him over a 0.25-second cast time. If the target would be brought past Swain, they are instead knocked back the excess distance.
	Enemy champions also leave behind a Soul Fragment for 16 seconds upon their death, which can be harvested after 1 second if Swain is near them.
	Innate - Flock: Swain's ravens bring nearby Soul Fragments to him, healing him for 4 / 5.5 / 7% (based on level) of his maximum health. Each Soul Fragment collected permanently increases his maximum health by 5.

Notes

• Ravenous Flock's pull requires the target to be immobilized by an enemy source.
  • Self-applied or allied-applied immobilizes do not allow Ravenous Flock to cast against the champion. Those applied by the neutral team (e.g. Dragon's initial knock back) can be targeted.
  • Ravenous Flock can be used against cc-immune or displacement immune targets that are affected by an ongoing immobilization. This will apply the damage, but the target will be prevented from being pulled.
• The crows carrying the souls will only be seen by the enemies if they have vision of Swain.
• The pull will interrupt channels at the very beginning, but does not keep the target stunned for the rest of the movement.
  • Channels can be started successfully during the pull, provided the previous crowd control does not prevent them still.

	While Demonic Ascension is active, Swain drains all nearby enemies, dealing magic damage each second and healing himself for each enemy hit, reduced by 90% against minions and monsters.

	After a 0.5-second delay, Swain can end Demonic Ascension's effects early to cast Demonflare, and automatically does so at the end of its duration.
	Demonic Ascension drains enemies regardless of having sight of them or not.

Notes

• Manually casted Demon Flare counts as an ability activation for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse.
  • If Demon Flare triggers automatically, it will perform its effects without being considered an ability activation.
• Demon Flare passes through champions. Effects like Yasuo's Wind Wall and Braum's Unbreakable will block the portion of the nova they intercept.
• Demonflare will cast from wherever Swain is at the end of the cast time.
