Quick Answer for Patch 26.20

  1. Undying Guard

    Gold

    Upon reviving with Cultivation of War, Zaahen deals damage to nearby enemies based on their current Health and knocks all targets back, becoming impervious to damage dealt by champions outside of the circle created and gains a brief burst of movement speed.

    Why on Zaahen

    When your Cultivation of War (passive) revive triggers, you damage and knock back nearby enemies and become impervious to champion damage from outside the circle.

  2. Mystic Punch

    Prismatic
  3. Symphony of War

    Prismatic

    Gain the Lethal Tempo and Conqueror Keystone Runes.

    Why on Zaahen

    Your attacks and abilities stack Conqueror in long fights, and Lethal Tempo's attack speed gets more basic attacks out, including the empowered ones from The Darkin Glaive (Q).
