Shepherd Emblem enables

  • On Cast On the Menu

    Effect fires the moment a unit casts its ability. Spellslinger / Jeweled-Gauntlet payoffs key off this.

  • Mana On the Menu

    The unit-level resource that gates ability casts. Mana-gen items, on-cast refunds, and starting-mana augments all key off this mechanic.

  • Summon On the Menu

    Adds a unit to the field — temporary or permanent. Covers ability summons (turrets, pets, Mega Meeps), trait-spawned minions and relics (Shepherd's Bia/Bayin, Bulwark relic, Primordian Swarmlings), resurrect/revive of fallen allies, and bench-to-field arrivals (Thresh's Lantern pulling a benched unit). Summon-buff augments scale these. Bench-slot expansion is the separate `bench` mechanic; an exact copy of an existing unit is the separate `clone` mechanic.
