What is Navori Flickerblade? \u26a1<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Navori Flickerblade is a legendary Marksman item<\/strong> in League of Legends, categorized under Marksman, Critical Strike, Attack Speed, and Movement. Its TRANSCENDENCE passive provides 15% CDR on basic abilities with every basic attack<\/strong> \u2014 converting attack speed into ability cooldown reduction in real time. This is a mechanic no other item in the game replicates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The item sits in the same crit + attack speed family as Phantom Dancer<\/strong><\/a>, Rapid Firecannon<\/strong><\/a>, Runaan’s Hurricane<\/strong><\/a>, and Statikk Shiv<\/strong><\/a>. What separates Navori Flickerblade is TRANSCENDENCE’s ability to dramatically compress ability cooldowns for champions whose basic abilities have short-to-medium base CDs. Champions that weave auto-attacks between ability casts \u2014 the standard marksman rotation \u2014 receive each ability back faster the higher their attack speed is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 2,650 Gold<\/strong> it is identically priced to Phantom Dancer<\/strong><\/a>. Sell price: 1,855 Gold<\/strong>. ID: 6675. Available on SR 5v5, ARAM, and Nexus Blitz (no Arena listed in base entry).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26a1 TRANSCENDENCE \u2014 15% CDR Per Auto Explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

How TRANSCENDENCE Works<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TRANSCENDENCE reduces the remaining cooldowns of basic abilities by 15% on each on-attack basic attack<\/strong>. The term ‘remaining cooldown’<\/strong> is critical: if an ability has 10 seconds remaining on its cooldown, TRANSCENDENCE reduces it by 1.5 seconds per auto attack (15% of 10). If it has 2 seconds remaining, it reduces it by 0.3 seconds. The reduction is proportional to remaining time \u2014 not flat seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This creates a feedback loop with attack speed: higher attack speed = more auto attacks per second = more frequent 15% remaining CDR reductions<\/strong>. At 2.0 attacks per second, TRANSCENDENCE fires twice per second on both ability cooldowns simultaneously. Combined with ability haste from items like Spear of Shojin<\/strong><\/a> or Voltaic Cyclosword<\/strong><\/a>, the effective ability cycling rate compounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 15% of remaining cooldown<\/strong> reduction compounds exponentially as abilities near zero cooldown. Example with a 10-second base CD ability:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcca TRANSCENDENCE at High Attack Speed \u2014 Effective CDR<\/strong>At 1.5 attacks\/second with a 10s CD ability: 15% \u00d7 remaining every 0.67s \u2192 ability ready again in approximately 6-7 seconds.At 2.0 attacks\/second: 15% every 0.5s \u2192 ability ready in approximately 5-6 seconds from the same 10s base CD.With Runaan’s Hurricane multi-bolts: each bolt is a separate attack \u2014 each bolt fires TRANSCENDENCE individually if the bolt is an on-attack effect (Hurricane bolts are on-attack).Champions with 4-6 second base CDs on their primary ability (Ashe Q, Caitlyn Q, Xayah E) benefit most \u2014 TRANSCENDENCE cycles them back in 2-3 seconds at high AS.Champions with 20+ second base CDs (Jinx R, ultimate abilities) gain less proportional benefit \u2014 TRANSCENDENCE’s percentage reduction shrinks at high remaining values.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

TRANSCENDENCE + Runaan’s Hurricane \u2014 Multi-Bolt Interaction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the most impactful mechanical interactions for Navori Flickerblade. Runaan’s Hurricane<\/strong><\/a>‘s bolts apply on-attack effects<\/strong>. TRANSCENDENCE triggers from on-attack sources \u2014 meaning each Hurricane bolt fires a separate TRANSCENDENCE reduction<\/strong>. At 3 targets hit simultaneously with Hurricane (primary + 2 bolts), that’s 3 TRANSCENDENCE triggers per attack instead of 1 \u2014 effectively tripling the CDR rate per physical attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On champions like Ashe<\/strong><\/a>, Miss Fortune<\/strong><\/a>, and Jinx<\/strong><\/a> who naturally build Runaan’s Hurricane<\/strong><\/a>, adding Navori Flickerblade creates a CDR rate that is practically impossible to achieve with ability haste items alone. At 3 Hurricane bolts \u00d7 1.5 attacks\/second = 4.5 TRANSCENDENCE triggers per second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arena reduces attack speed from +40% to +35%<\/strong>. All other stats and TRANSCENDENCE mechanics remain unchanged. In Arena, the item’s value depends heavily on whether the champion’s build includes Runaan’s Hurricane<\/strong><\/a> for the multi-bolt TRANSCENDENCE stacking \u2014 without multi-bolt, the AS reduction from 40% to 35% is a minor gap. With Hurricane, the TRANSCENDENCE triple-trigger per attack remains fully intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfaf Best Champions for Navori Flickerblade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Navori Flickerblade is strongest on champions who actively weave basic attacks between ability casts<\/strong> and whose basic abilities have short-to-medium cooldowns that compound with TRANSCENDENCE’s reduction. The mechanic is meaningless on pure ability-spam champions who never auto-attack, and less impactful on champions whose primary abilities have very long CDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
