GameplayTwitch is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities[]
- The first 5 stacks on a target are indicated each by a small mark around them, while a target affected by the maximum stacks of 6 is indicated by a single large mark above them instead.
- Deadly Venom does not affect structures.
- Being applied on-hit, Deadly Venom stacks will still be applied if the attack was parried or blocked, but not if dodged and/or missed if Twitch is blinded.
- Entering stealth cancels Twitch's current basic attack.
- Ambush follows the same rules as stealth but he can still perform actions normally before entering camouflage. Activating Recall during the 1-second delay allows him to channel it while stealthed.
- If Twitch enters stasis during the delay, he will gain the camouflage after the stasis ends.
- Venom Cask can apply a maximum of 4 Deadly Venom stacks per enemy.
- Venom Cask's missile will fail to fire if Twitch is suppressed during the cast time.(bug)
- Contaminate will deal the additional damage to targets based on the number of Deadly Venom stacks they had at the start of the cast time.
- Twitch is given a range indicator for Contaminate's radius upon infecting an enemy champion with Deadly Venom (actual range is slightly larger than shown by the indicator).
- Contaminate will not deal damage to enemies that are not within range of the ability before the cast time completes.
- If the target moves out of range after the cast time, they are still dealt the damage.
- The extra distance that the bolts travel scales with bonus attack range.
- Spray and Pray allows Twitch to outrange turrets by 50 units, allowing him to hit them without them returning fire.
- Twitch targets his line attack at his target's location at the start of his attack windup.
- The bolts reach targets at a delay, composed of Twitch's windup time and distance the bolt has to travel at finite speed. Even the primary target can dodge the attack if they are moving quickly enough.
- The bolt projectiles will naturally pass through terrain and enemy structures (the latter will be damaged by bolts even if they are not directly targeted).
- If Twitch is blinded before winding up the attack, the hits will miss against all targets.
- Runaan's Hurricane's Wind's Fury interacts with Spray and Pray's bonus attack range but not with the modified missile effect (the secondary bolts will not have pass-through effects).
- Whenever the bolts penetrate a target, a small elongated cloud appears at the location, which's VFX and SFX can be seen and heard inside the Fog of War.
- The bolts' travel distance scales with the full value of Twitch's attack range increases such as Rapid Firecannon, but not with size increases (which only increase his effective attack range, thereby the target range).
- (Outdated as of V10.13, now can hit everything with edge range, except for turrets) The center of a unit must be within the maximum travel distance of the bolt missile, and in front of the spawn location (Twitch's center) for the bolt to be able to hit them.
- Other than this condition, the bolt missile has to only touch (pass within its half width of 60 units) the edge of the unit's radius.
- This is standard behaviour for linear skillshots.
- Other than this condition, the bolt missile has to only touch (pass within its half width of 60 units) the
- Runaan's Hurricane's bolts can target the same units that are hit by Twitch's penetrated bolt, increasing the total damage dealt to them and applying on-hit effects twice.
Champion skins[]

A Zaunite plague rat by birth, but a connoisseur of filth by passion, Twitch is not afraid to get his paws dirty. Aiming a chem-powered crossbow at the gilded heart of Piltover, he has vowed to show those in the city above just how filthy they really are. Always a sneaky sneak, when he’s not rooting around in the Sump, he’s digging deep into other people’s garbage for discarded treasures… and perhaps a moldy sandwich.
