Rell Passive - Break the Mold

Rell attacks very slowly but temporarily steals some of her target's armor and magic resist and deals bonus damage depending on the amount stolen. Rell can also become extremely durable by stealing resistances from several different enemies.

Rell stands as a champion who gets stronger and harder to kill the more she hits. With this Passive that weakens enemies while strengthening herself, you can be a good tank in your matches in the Rift.

Rell Q - Shattering Strike

Rell thrusts her lance forward, shattering shields and dealing damage to all enemies hit (damage decreases after the first target). If she is tethered to an ally with Rell E - Attract and Repel, she and her ally each heal for every champion hit by this ability.

One of the features that lets Rell act as a Support as well as a tank is her Q. Like Jarvan, she not only deals damage by thrusting her lance but also breaks enemy shields.

Rell W1 - Ferromancy: Crash Down

(Can only be used while mounted.) Rell leaps into the air and transforms her mount into heavy armor, gaining a massive shield that lasts until it is destroyed or she mounts up again. When she lands, she knocks up all enemies around her. While transformed, Rell can use E - Attract and Repel and R - Magnet Storm.

While armored, Rell has higher durability, lower movement speed and a movement speed cap. After the transformation this ability becomes Ferromancy: Mount Up.

Rell W2 - Ferromancy: Mount Up

(Can only be used while armored.) Rell dashes forward, transforming her armor into a mount and gaining movement speed for a short time. On her next attack she charges her target, dealing bonus damage and throwing it over her shoulder.

Rell gains a movement speed boost while on her mount. After the transformation this ability becomes Ferromancy: Crash Down.

As we have seen before with champions such as Elise and Nidalee, Rell gains different abilities when switching modes. It should not be too hard to adjust which abilities you use while mounted or armored.

Rell E - Attract and Repel

Rell magnetically attaches a piece of her armor to a target ally, granting them bonus armor and magic resist while they are near her. When Rell recasts this ability to end the tether, she stuns all nearby enemies and all enemies between herself and the tethered ally.

Another feature we think can make Rell a good support is her E. Granting armor and magic resist to a nearby ally and stunning enemies at the end of the tether reflects our champion's versatility well.

Rell Ultimate - R - Magnet Storm

Rell bursts with magnetic fury, pulling nearby enemies toward her. She then creates a pull field around herself that keeps pulling nearby enemies for a while. This field does not prevent enemies' other actions.

As a full area CC, this ability can pull enemies in at once with the crowd control it provides, and can lead to massive damage with teammates who have ultimates that hit the area.

Rell Abilities Video and Our Review

If we were to give a general opinion on the champion, it would be right to say she is as strong as the new generation of champions that started coming out in 2020. Her varied kit, her ability to be both a tank and a support, and yet her strength, with stun abilities and top-lane-champion-like power, make Rell OP in our eyes.
