Strategy Edit

• Banshee's Veil is a strong item against magic damage but is most valued for its ability to prevent crowd control. As such it is highly recommended to build Banshee's Veil when you are being focused by crowd control effects, or when the enemy has initiation or pulling abilities like  Enchanted Crystal Arrow and  Rocket Grab. Combined with Guardian Angel, Banshee's Veil will make you very resilient to both magic and physical damage.
• At late game, Banshee's Veil is a great addition for AD carries because it can block important crowd control abilities (e.g.  Impale,  Bandage Toss,  Rocket Grab), or in other words, it can prevent the enemy from initiating on you.
• In most cases, when enemy team doesn't have important crowd control abilities, Banshee's Veil should be substituted by Guardian Angel.

Notes Edit

• If Banshee's Veil is up and you activate  Spell Shield or  Shroud of Darkness, both shields will pop when hit by an ability. This is intended.^[2]
• Banshee's Veil's passive will prevent Nocturne's  Paranoia or Twisted Fate's  Destiny regardless of location. Only the vision component of these spells get blocked.
• Banshee's Veil can negate effects from active items such as Deathfire Grasp and Hextech Gunblade.
• Banshee's Veil does not negate summoner spells Ignite and Exhaust.
• Banshee's Veil will not block damage from persistent AoE spells such as: Anivia's  Glacial Storm or Nasus's  Spirit Fire.
• Banshee's Veil will not block passive damage over time effects from abilities such as Brand's  Blaze or Gangplank's  Grog Soaked Blade.
• Banshee's Veil's passive carries over to clones, like Shaco's  Hallucinate or Mordekaiser's  Children of the Grave.
• Banshee's Veil's Dominion counterpart is Odyn's Veil.
