Astrid Abilities (Descriptions, Videos and Mechanics)

Passive Ability	Effect
BLADED GUARDIAN	When Astrid’s HP falls below 80%, she gains a shield that absorbs 450 HP for 4 seconds. The shield effect has a 24-second cooldown and will be reactivated when Astrid takes damage again. Cooldown is reduced by 3 seconds every time Astrid hits an enemy hero with an ability or normal attack and by 1.5 seconds every time she hits an enemy minion or monster.
Ability Mechanics

Ability 1	Effect
SPIN SLASH Mana: 60 Physical Damage	Astrid swings her mighty sword around, dealing 160 (+1.2 AD)ˀ physical damage to surrounding enemies. If she hits an enemy hero, Astrid’s attack speed will increase by 20% and an additional 5% for every other hero hit for 3 seconds. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Damage 160 200 240 280 320 360
Ability Mechanics Ability Range: 400 units Mana cost goes up by 5 per level.

Ability 2	Effect
FEARLESS CHARGE Mana: 60 Physical Damage Control	Astrid charges forward, dealing 60 (+0.5 AD) physical damage, slowing enemy movement speed by 50% for 1.5 seconds, and decreasing target armor by 30% for 4 seconds. Her next normal attack will be a critical hit and will reduce Fearless Charge’s cooldown by 1 second. This effect cannot stack. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Damage 60 90 120 150 180 210 Cooldown 10 9.6 9.2 8.8 8.4 8
Ability Mechanics Astrid charges 350 units, then another 500 units when she attacks Mana cost goes up by 5 per level. The ability description is misleading: Astrid does not deal damage on her first charge. Instead, all the damage is dealt on her subsequent attack and is equal to her AD plus the damage listed: AD + 60 + .5AD = 60 + 1.5AD damage. It does not automatically crit. (Update: The SEA server description is much more accurate in this regard). On a normal critical hit, her base AD is doubled but not any damage added from the ability. For example, at level 1 the damage would be 2*AD + 60 + .5*AD = 2.5*AD + 60 Can pass through walls Cooldown reduction effect only happens when attacking heroes.

Ultimate	Effect
DIRE BLOW Mana: 100 Physical Damage Control	Astrid powers up and becomes immune to all damage for 2 seconds. After 1.5 seconds, she swings her sword, dealing 500 (+2.0 AD) physical damage. For every 2% of her own maximum HP that Astrid has lost, she will deal 1% more damage. The ability also slows the enemy’s movement speed by 50% for 1.5 seconds. If the enemy’s HP is higher than Astrid’s, then the ability also stuns the enemy for 1 second. 1 2 3 Damage 500 750 1000 Cooldown 50 45 40
Ability Mechanics Ability Range: 600 units Mana cost goes up by 25 per level. Renders Astrid immune to CC effects. Can pass through walls. Immunity currently wears off after 1.5 seconds, right before the slash.

In-Game Tool Tip

Dire Blow makes Astrid immune to all damage, which is invaluable when she has low HP. This allows Astrid to deal heavy damage and stun enemies while running to safety.
