Abilities

Riot's own text for each slot, in the order the champion learns them.

PASSIVE ROLLING ARMORDILLO

Rammus starts rolling while out of combat, gaining movement speed. Entering battle will temporarily disable this effect.

1 POWERBALL

Rammus accelerates in a ball towards his enemies, dealing damage and slowing targets affected by the impact.

2 DEFENSIVE BALL CURL

Rammus goes into a defensive formation, vastly increasing his Armor and Magic Resistance, amplifying Spiked Shells' damage, and returning damage to enemies that basic attack him, but he is also slowed during this time.

3 FRENZYING TAUNT

Rammus taunts an enemy champion or monster into a reckless assault against him. Additionally, he gains increased Attack Speed for a short time.

ULTIMATE SOARING SLAM

Rammus hops into the air and slams down, dealing damage and creating aftershocks. Aftershocks slow enemies. The hopping distance increases based upon Powerball's current speed.
