They take 400 (+0.5 AD) (+0.3 armor) physical damage and are slowed by 50% for 2 seconds after they are freed from the prison. 1 2 3 Damage 400 600 800 Cooldown 70 65 60
Ability Mechanics: Ability Range: 1200 units; Effective Range: 1500 Like Arum‘s Snare, Wild Prison overrides all CC-canceling effects and abilities There’s a roughly 1 second cast time if Baldum casts at his feet; otherwise there is an additional travel time – roughly 0.5 seconds at maximum range Heroes are un-targetable while in Wild Prison and cannot be damaged until they emerge. There’s a slight grace period between when enemies are released and damage is dealt, during which heroes can cast abilities to escape the damage  Enemies who are not trapped in the prison but are standing just outside its radius will also be slowed by 30%

In-Game Tool Tip

Baldum is very good at crowd control, especially with his ultimate. However, he is quite weak against ranged heroes.
