00:00What is going on, summoners? We're back here today with another Champion Deep Dive.
00:05Today, we're talking about Yelena Belova.
00:10So, sit back and relax, cause it's time to get into it.
00:24Yelena enters the contest trained by the Red Room,
00:28granting her an indefinite combo shield and 35% endurance passive.
00:34These passives are unaffected by ability accuracy modification.
00:39She's also immune to all poison effects,
00:43and can land critical hits through her target's block.
00:47Her critical hits inflict instant bleeds, and if her bleed is prevented by an immunity,
00:53she deals a burst of direct damage instead.
00:56Additionally, the first hit of her heavy attack inflicts a 40% bleed vulnerability debuff for 18 seconds.
01:04This is paused during specials, and maxes out at 3 stacks.
01:09Yelena starts each fight in observation mode, capping her target's attack rating at 60% of what it was at the start of the fight.
01:17While suffering from a daunted effect, this cap becomes 100%.
01:24And while observation mode is active, Yelena gains plus 1 combo each time the defender is struck by or blocks a basic attack.
01:33This becomes plus 4 if the attack was an intercept.
01:36She also gains plus 10 when the defender is knocked down, and plus 50 the first time the defender is brought below 50% health during any basic attack.
01:48Now, when her combo meter reaches 100, she switches to elimination mode after 10 seconds.
01:55Activating a special attack ends this timer early, and while elimination mode is active, all of her attacks become guaranteed crits, and she loses 5 combo each time either champion is struck by or blocks a basic attack.
02:10Her personal abilities also become unaffected by ability accuracy, and when she would be struck by a light or heavy attack, she executes a reversal, inflicting 4 instant bleeds and losing 15 combo.
02:25When her combo meter falls below 5, she switches back to observation mode.
02:30Now, let's check out her special attacks.
02:33On activation of her special 1, she gains an impact passive, increasing her block penetration by 45% for 8 seconds.
02:44In observation mode, while this passive is active, she gains plus 5 combo each time she hits her target's block.
02:52But, if elimination mode is active, she can execute a reversal against medium attacks.
02:57With the special 2, the final hit inflicts a non-stacking disarm passive for 15 seconds.
03:05This can be inflicted through block.
03:08Disarm caps attack rating and block proficiency, preventing it from increasing above a set amount.
03:1350% of current attack rating and block proficiency unless otherwise stated.
03:18In observation mode, inflicting disarm grants plus 50 combo.
03:23But, in elimination mode, it refreshes all bleed vulnerability effects and pauses them for 8 seconds.
03:42The special 3!
03:44At the end of this attack, she inflicts a critical bleed passive for 12 seconds, with damage increased by her critical damage multiplier.
03:51This bleed starts paused for 12 seconds if her target is indestructible or below 5% health.
03:59Now, let's check out her signature ability.
04:03When awakened, while Yelena is in observation mode, her target's critical damage rating is capped at down to 50% of what it was at the start of the fight.
04:14And while in elimination mode, against non-mutant champions, her target cannot evade or cause attacks to miss.
04:23Now, let's take her out for a spin in the champion rotation.
04:26To begin, strike the opponent to start building that massive combo.
04:33Intercept and heavy if possible to build it faster and inflict your bleed vulnerability.
04:39These max out at 3, so stack them on and build close to your special 3.
04:43Then, once you cross 100 combo, launch your special 2 to activate elimination mode and unlock those guaranteed crits.
04:53From here, launch your special 1 to gain your impact passive and take advantage of that reversal to knock the opponent back and burst them down with instant bleeds.
05:02And, if you're feeling spicy, launch it into their block.
05:07Then, bully the opponent with multiple reversals.
05:11Now, her opponent won't be able to evade or miss while she's in elimination mode as long as they aren't a mutant.
05:18So, once you've observed your target, don't hold back and launch an assault full of guaranteed crits and instant bleeds.
05:25And, hey, if the opponent is bleed immune, don't stress.
05:30She replaces that instant bleed with a burst of direct damage instead.
05:34So, don't let that pesky bleed immunity stand in your way of observing your target and eliminating you from the battle realm.
