    Drakehound's Step

    Innate: During the lockout of Ambessa's abilities, inputting an attack or movement command causes her to dash to or towards the target or location, respectively, after the lockout ends. This dash cannot pass through terrain. Ambessa cannot dash while immobilized or grounded. Innate: Whenever Ambessa casts an ability, she generates a stack of Medarda Maxim after the ability's respective lockout for 4 seconds, refreshing with subsequent casts and stacking up to 3 times. Basic attacks consume one stack each to become empowered. Medarda Maxim: Ambessa's next basic attack on-attack is empowered to have an uncancellable windup, gain 75 bonus range and 50% bonus attack speed, deal (+ 25% bonus AD) bonus physical damage, and restore energy.

    Public Execution
