While playing a game yesterday, the enemy Ziggs was wrecking us. So, we tried to focus our fire on him. Unfortunately, the enemy Zilean got his Ultimate on the Ziggs. While we were waiting for Ziggs to return, we were taking fire from the enemy team. When he revived, he used Zhonya's Hourglass! It seemed like we were waiting forever for him to be target-able, and the rest of his team cleaned us up.

How long can any one champion remain untarget-able or in stasis in a row and under what circumstances can this occur?

  • Do you mean, how much time they are "dead" before they get back to life? it's something like 2 seconds and this isn't affected by any means

    It depends on the champion as well. I know some champions that can make themselves untargetable for a short period (Elise's repel, Vlad's pool, Fizz's trollpole, etc.), so that needs to be considered too. Plus, there's some things that make enemies effectively untargetable for a wide range of abilities (Yasuo's Windwall, Braum's shield, anyone with invisibility, etc.). Commented Aug 18, 2014 at 13:38

    A fun 'statis-troll' would be lissandra with zilean ult, her ult, GA and zhonyas. I cant think of anything else that would make it longer

    This is the same as asking "What's the maxspeed that I can reach"... I don't think it's a good question because this doesn't help you in anyway and it's a too broad question

    @Michel why exactly should this question be closed? it's definitely not too broad.

In order they would go off:

Elise Repel - 2 Seconds

Zilean Ult - 2 Seconds

Guardian Angel - 4 Seconds

Zhonya's Hourglass - 2.5 Seconds

Elise Repel (Second time) - 2 Seconds

Total Time - 12.5 Seconds.

Elise repel is 14 second cooldown base. This means with 40% cdr, the cool down is 8.4 seconds. The combination of GA, Zilean ultimate, and Zhonyas gives you 8.5 seconds of stasis. This means you repel would be off cooldown by the time the rest of it is finished.

For stasis on other characters (vlad and fizz still take DoT damage in theirs): Vlad pool is 2 seconds. Lissandra's self ult is 2.5. Fizz pole is 0.7 seconds. Aatrox passive is 3 seconds.

  • I thought elise took dot and leash damage while in repel? That's why you sometimes see her go up but never come down

  • Repel, along with Vlad pool, have animations going into and out of their stasis that may technically make the time where they can be damaged less than stated. I believe Elise can be damaged as she is coming down, and that time is not counted as part of the Repel time. Either way, Riot states 2 seconds, and that is their intent, regardless of bugs. The question also asked for stasis, which is that you cannot act, and you cannot be targeted. Invulnerability is a little bit different.

If we're talking about real stasis (the one where you are Completely Immortal) the champion with the longest Total stasis duration would be Aatrox. Note that Fizz E and Vladimir E are still allowing ticking damage

This could be achieved through:

  • Zilean Ultimate - 2s
  • Zhonyas Hourglass - 2.5s
  • Active Guardians Angel - 4s
  • Fully Stacked Passive Revive - 3s

and it makes a total of 11.5 seconds of stasis.

The only other champion that comes close to this is lissandra with 11 seconds (just replace Aatrox passive with Lissandra Ultimate - 2.5s).

It's however more likely to encounter a Lissandra that fullfils these criteria since Zhonyas isn't really a commonly built item on Aatrox.

  • Don't forget Kayle's ult... not stasis but still unkillable. Commented Aug 18, 2014 at 13:52
  • And if the enemy team really wants to ruin your day they will smack a Yorick ult on Aatrox.

    Zilean, Kayle, Aatrox and Yorick on the same team, possible. Gonna have to play with friends and try it. Commented Aug 18, 2014 at 13:54

    It's always fun to see those videos where people take gimmicks like this and make a whole team around it. Giving someone like Draven or Jax extra lives, shields and untargetable protection.
