Executioner Emblem

Instantly kills a target whose Health is below a threshold (typically a % of max Health). Resolves as true damage equal to the target's current Health, so it ignores Armor, Magic Resist, Durability, and damage reduction. Unlike ordinary true damage, an execute destroys any active Shield before applying its kill — a shielded unit at low HP is still executed once the threshold check passes; the Shield does not save it.

Damage dealt over multiple seconds as flat physical or magic damage, AD- or AP-scaled. Distinct from Burn (% max-Health true damage).

Damage that bypasses Armor and Magic Resist — the damage number on the source is applied directly to current Health. Shields still absorb true damage like any other damage type.

Scales with crit chance and crit damage from items like Infinity Edge and Jeweled Gauntlet. By default abilities cannot crit — the sibling Precision mechanic is what lets spell damage roll crits, so crit-on-spell builds need a Precision source before crit chance and crit damage actually apply to abilities.
