Types of crowd control

Main article: Crowd control

This is a summary of the crowd control types.

Please note the following:

• Movement includes previews and flashes (such as Arcane Displacement of Ezreal).
  • For example, while in the air you can use summoner spells except Flash and Teleportation.
• Skill refers to champion cast spells (by default Q, W, E, and R).
  • Mikael's Crucible cannot be activated when abilities are disabled, as the item is intended to be used on allies.
• Spells refers to summoner spells.
• Interrupt refers to whether or not the effect cancels channeled abilities.
  • Contrary to popular belief, Roots and Wraps DO NOT interrupt channeling, with only two exceptions: Teleportation and United of Shen. Roots and Sheaths, however, interrupt abilities that charge (for example Honda Elastic, Vaultbreaker and Piercing Arrow).
• Mercurial Scimitar removes any crowd control effects that the Mercury Sash also removes.

Types of crowd control

In the air

• The target is unable to control its movement, attack, or cast abilities.
  • The target remains selectable and will be affected by abilities as if they were on the ground (such as Miasma).
  • The duration of the effect depends on how long the target remains in the air. A common mistake whereby a moving target is suspended in the air causes it to be thrown "into orbit." Duration is greatly extended due to increased distance the target falls.
• Discontinue channeling abilities.
• Disrupts advancement abilities.
• Duration is not affected by crowd control reduction.
• The effect cannot be removed by purification effects, however they can be removed through a combination of a purification effect together with a boost.

Push

• The target is thrown into the air in the opposite direction of the launch point.
• Champions with push: Alistar, Fizz, Gnar, Gragas, Hecarim, Janna, Jayce, Read without, Maokai, Poppy, Quinn, Rammus,  Shyvana, Syndra, Thresh, Tristana, Vayne,  We,  Xin Zhao,  Ziggs

Knockdown aside

• The target is launched into the air in a direction perpendicular to the launch point.

Blindness

• The target will miss their basic attacks, causing the "Miss" message to appear on the target of their attacks.
  • Blindness only mitigates the physical damage portion of an attack, including that dealt from a physical impact effect. Other damage types and effects will not fail. See: Impact effects.
  • Skills that apply on-hit effects will also fail.
  • Blindness is considered a form of damage mitigation. As such, it is applied after the passive of the Cota de Espinas.
• It does not interrupt the pipes.
• Duration is affected by crowd control reduction.
• The effect can be removed by all purification effects (except for the  Mikael's Crucible).
• Blindness does not affect certain champion abilities (for example, the passive of Riven, Runic Sword.
• Blinded enemies will only miss if they attack while blinded. Ranged units will hit if the projectile was fired before blindness.
• Si Vayne is blinded, she can only apply her Silver Projectiles if he does a cartwheel. Normal basic attacks do not apply silver projectiles while she is blinded.
• Blind Champions: Teemo ,  Quinn

Envelope

• The target is unable to control its movement or attack.
  • This includes summoner spells and abilities that move the champion.
