Untargetability example

Fizz Fizz being untargetable while using Playful Playful.

Untargetable Health Bar

The health bar usually has a translucent appearance to indicate the untargetable status. Otherwise, it is invisible.

Untargetability refers to units in a state where they are no longer valid targets for Aria of Perseverance aura, Leap Strike unit-targeted, Electrical Surge auto-targeted, Sear direction-targeted and Eye of Destruction location-targeted effects, including those sourced by basic attacks, abilities, summoner spells, item effects, item actives, and runes. All units become untargetable at the end of a match.

Effects that have already been applied, such as buffs or debuffs, are not invalidated by untargetability. Notable examples include Blaze damage over time, Focused Resolve tethers, and delayed abilities such as Death Mark Death Mark, Sleepy Trouble Bubble Sleepy Trouble Bubble, and Time Bomb Time Bomb.

The act of becoming untargetable will also interrupt any effects that have already acquired the unit as a target, such as target commands, and most untargetabilities will additionally Bullet strikethrough destroy all incoming targeted Projectile projectiles (e.g. Ace in the Hole Ace in the Hole, Bouncing Blade Bouncing Blade, Frostbite Frostbite, turret shots). Non-champion units (e.g. Turret icon turrets, Minion icon minions, Monster icon monsters) will lose aggro if their target becomes untargetable.
