How Transcendence works

Sorcery · Row 2

Transcendence grants 5 ability haste at level 5 and again at level 8; from level 11, champion takedowns cut basic ability cooldowns by 20%.

  • The level 11 effect reduces the remaining cooldown of basic abilities, not your ultimate.
  • The bonuses arrive at set levels, so the rune is predictable and requires no stacking.
  • Fits champions who want more ability casts in fights and expect to be present for takedowns.
