Gain Shield after Immobilizing or Grounding an enemy champion.
Justice Punch (E) and Hero's Entrance (R) both knock up, so each engage gives you a shield right as you land in the enemy team.
Become large, gaining 15% Health and 10% Adaptive Force.
You taunt with Shield of Durand (W) and dive with Hero's Entrance (R), so the extra Health keeps you alive while Adaptive Force raises your damage.
Gain increased size and percent bonus Health per takedown.
Your engages with Justice Punch (E) and Hero's Entrance (R) set up takedowns for your team, and each takedown adds bonus Health that carries into later rounds.
