When to use it
Two knockbacks from one cast — one on summon, one on the rune shattering — so it peels a backline twice if the rune survives to be broken. No creator tier placement was captured with it.
Builds using this
- Seer — Reverent catalyst, ranged support — LichKArthus explains it at 02:00Instant, and it costs no resource — you can cast it on empty pips, which is the whole argument for it. It knocks back, and if an enemy breaks it, it procs a second time, which the creator describes as genuinely annoying for melee to play around.
- Seer — Reverent Solo — Nazori explains it at 01:00His current third slot: damage plus knockback against anyone attacking next to it. He flip-flops between this and Binding and currently trusts this one against melee.
