Cheap Shot is a rune in 
League of Legends.
League of Legends.
Notes[]
- Cripple does not count as a valid crowd control for Cheap Shot.
- Cheap Shot checks the status of the potential target every time damage is dealt to an enemy champion, during the damage event's on-deal-pre-drain phase.
- CC that is applied on-hit (e.g. Alistar's Trample) will be there before this check occurs, CC that is applied on-pre-apply (e.g. Rylai's Crystal Scepter) will not. Either will be applied on the same game tick, but may belong to a different cast-instance than the damage (see rule below).
- CC that is applied on-hit (e.g.
- Cheap Shot may not trigger on damage that is applied on the same game tick as a crowd control effect from the same cast instance.
- If the target is already under the effects of crowd control, this does not apply.
- This also occurs if the target is under the effect of CC from a neutral monster (e.g. Baron Nashor), despite Cheap Shot not triggering on non-teammate crowd control.(bug)
- This also occurs if the target is under the effect of CC from a neutral monster (e.g.
- Abilities such as Lux's Lucent Singularity can apply a crowd control effect themselves and deal damage at a delay, skipping the same game tick rule and applying Cheap Shot on their own.
- Once Cheap Shot has triggered on a cast instance, it clears this marker for the next time the same cast instance applies a crowd control effect.
- If the target is already under the effects of crowd control, this does not apply.
- All Basic damage (Note: All damage with this damage tag, not only damage from basic attacks) is considered the same cast instance to Cheap Shot
- Because of this and the above, for instance Ezreal's Mystic Shot with Iceborn Gauntlet or Ashe's Frost Shot will on its own be able to trigger Cheap Shot only every other time if it is the only attack to hit the enemy.(bug)
- Because of this and the above, for instance
- Damage over time effects applied before a crowd control may also trigger Cheap Shot on a damage tick once an eligible effect has been applied.
Strategy[]
- Ashe can easily apply Cheap Shot by herself thanks to her passive. After basic attacking a target, her next basic attack on that target will trigger Cheap Shot, regardless of the target being slowed or not.
- Junglers can take Crest of Cinders to apply Cheap Shot in a similar way to Frost Shot.
- Junglers can take
- Items such as Rylai's Crystal Scepter and Serylda's Grudge, or runes such as Glacial Augment, allow you to easily benefit from Cheap Shot.
- A single cast of Make It Rain or damage over time abilities (i.e. Malefic Visions) with Rylai's Crystal Scepter is enough to trigger the bonus damage.
- Lux's Lucent Singularity does trigger Cheap Shot with its detonation damage.
