An Assist is the action of helping an allied champion kill someone. You can either score an assist by hitting the champion in the last 10 seconds before his death, or by contributing passively during this period of time.

Scoring an assist will grant a certain amount of gold. Gold equal to 50% of the amount the killer receives is put in a pot which is split equally among all champions who scored an assist.

Secondary system Edit

Champions also gain assists on kills if they:

• contributed to the battle via active abilities but did not deal damage e.g. CC

• debuffed an enemy but they were immune to the damage.

• supporting a champion that contributed to the kill , e.g. healing an allied champion.

Champions will not gain assists if they:

• use blind, reveal or attack speed slow
