Luden's Echo

Patch 7.3

Adjust

• Echo:
• Your next damaging ability or empowered basic attack deals 75 + 8% Ability Power magic damage to the primary target and up to 5 nearby enemies. For each fewer target hit by Echo, the primary target takes an additional 20 + 1.2% Ability Power magic damage. (9 second cooldown)

• The Echo passive is listed: it hits the main target and up to 5 nearby enemies, and the fewer enemies it catches, the more extra damage the main target takes (9-second cooldown).

Patch 7.2b

Echo

• Damage110 + 10% AP → 140 + 15% AP
• Cooldown10s → 9s

Our take

Each proc lands 30 more flat damage with a 5% better AP ratio, and it comes back a second sooner. That lets a mage clear the wave and chip at the enemy laner in the same motion, holding lane priority for longer stretches. Since the gain grows with AP, Luden's Echo is a stronger choice as the first completed item than it was.

• AP+85 → +100
• Max Mana+300 → +500
• Ability Haste+20 → +10

Our take

The charge system is gone, replaced by a flat 10s cooldown. You no longer have to track distance travelled or abilities cast, which makes the timing readable for you and for your opponent. AP rises by 15 and max mana by 200, while ability haste is halved to 10. The item now points toward burst mages who want a big hit at a chosen moment rather than a steady stream of casts.

Patch 7.1

Buff

Base Stats

• Cost3000 → 2900 gold

Our take

Luden's Echo spreads the next damaging ability onto nearby enemies, which helps both with clearing waves and with the opening hit of a teamfight. Cutting the cost from 3000 to 2900 brings that first spike forward, making it easier to shove the lane and then rotate elsewhere. Lich Bane was cheapened in the same patch, so a mage's first item is now picked for what it does rather than for what it costs.
