Absolution (Passive)
Senna can attack souls that spawn from dead enemies to absorb their mist. She can also siphon mist from enemy champions she hits twice, dealing [1-16%] of their current health as bonus physical damage (4 second cooldown per target) 
Each stack of mist grants 1 Attack Damage. Every 20 stacks of mist grant 25 attack range and 15% Critical Strike Chance. 35% of excess Critical Strike Chance is converted into Lifesteal. 
Relic CannonSenna's attacks take extra time to fire, deal [20% AD] bonus physical damage on-hit, and briefly grant her [10-20%] of the target's movement speed. 
Senna gains Adaptive Force instead of Ability Power from Spell Thief's Edge and the items it builds into. 
Souls are less likely to spawn from enemies Senna kills, but will always spawn from champions and large minions and monsters. Senna does not gain Attack Damage on level up. Her critical strikes deal 35% less damage

  • % scaling on damage is 1/2/3/4/5/6/8/10/12/14/16 - caps at 16% at level 12
  • Relic cannon speed is 10% at lv 1, 15% at lv 6, & 20% at lvl 10.
  • Stats from mist shown as buff on Senna.

Piercing Darkness (Q) 
70/80/90/100/110 Mana
15 second Cooldown 
Senna shoots a bolt of piercing shadow through an ally or enemy. Enemies hit take 50/80/110/140/170 (+50% bAD) physical damage. Allied champions hit are healed for 40/60/80/100/120 (+25% AP)(+40% bAD) health. 
Basic attacks reduce Piercing Darkness's cooldown by 1 seconds---Piercing Darkness's cast range matches Senna's attack range and its cast time is improved with Attack Speed. It can target anything and applies on-hit effect to enemy champions.

Last Embrace (W)
50/55/60/65/70 Mana
11 Cooldown 
Senna sends forth the black mist, dealing 70/115/160/205/250 (+70% bAD) physical damage to the first enemy hit. After a 1 second delay the target and other nearby enemies are rooted for 1.45/1.65/1.85/2.05/2.25 seconds.

Curse of the Black Mist (E)
70 Mana
26/24.5/23/21.5/20 Cooldown 
Senna dissolves into a cloud of mist for 6/6.5/7/7.5/8 seconds, becoming a wraith. Allied champions who enter the mist are Camouflaged and become wraiths when they leave. Wraiths gain 20% movement speed. They are unselectable and hide their identities as long as no enemy champions are nearby.

Dawning Shadow (R)
100 Mana
160/140/120 Cooldown 
Senna fires a blast of light with global range. Enemy champions hit take 250/375/500 (+ 40% AP)(+100% bAD) physical damage. Allied champions hit in a wider area recieve a shield for 3 seconds that absorbs 120/160/200  (+40% AP)(+ 1.5 per mist) damage. The shields power scales with the amount of mist Senna has collected.

Lore

"Cursed from childhood to be haunted by the supernatural Black Mist, Senna joined a sacred order known as the Sentinels of Light, and fiercely fought back -- only to be killed, her soul imprisoned in a lantern by the cruel wraith Thresh. But refusing to lose hope, within the lantern Senna learned to use the Mist, and reemerged to new life, forever changed. Now wielding darkness along with light, Senna seeks to end the Black Mist by turning it against itself - with every blast of her relic weapon, redeeming the souls lost within."

Voiceover

Senna's full voice over can be found here - it was released early as part of the Senna Community kit.

Check out Senna's special interactions:
  • Choose VO: "No one fights alone in the Mist."
  • Ban VO: "Fine. I don't need more enemies."

Release Skin 

Senna's release skin is True Damage Senna!

True Damage Senna

1350 RP
"Senna rose to fame with her stunning vocal range and iconic sense of style, but when a shady adversary from her past imprisoned her in a restrictive record deal that took away her creative independence, she vanished from the spotlight. After years of living in the shadows, she now emerges as the lead singer of True Damage with her mind set on defining her legacy on her own terms."


Champion Skins


Following the skins trailer & reveal, new True Damage skins have hit the PBE for Akali, Ekko, Qiyana ( + Prestige Edition), Senna, and Yasuo:

True Damage Akali

1350 RP
"After the worldwide success of K/DA, Akali made it her mission to recruit accomplished and up-and-coming artists to form a new supergroup: True Damage. Never before has a crew been comprised of such diverse talent, ranging from natural lyricists to renowned producers to legendary vocalists... all ready to disrupt the music industry."

True Damage Ekko

1820 RP
"A boy genius from the rough streets, Ekko turned to music as a way to express himself. His prodigious lyricism and technological savvy could have bought him a way out, but instead, he chose to stay and uplift his neighborhood. Now, he fiercely resists the temptations of fame and glory, garnering a following among the young and hopeful who see him as an avatar for their own potential."

As a Legendary tier skin, True Damage Ekko has a new voiceover and special interactions:


True Damage Qiyana

1350 RP
"Qiyana is the daughter of Latin music royalty. With her family's esteemed reputation, she has an easy path to superstardom... and yet, she has her eyes set on something grander. With her brash confidence and rebellious persona, she is determined to change the game in not just music, but the entirety of pop culture."

True Damage Qiyana Prestige Edition

Tokens
"Always a fixture in the spotlight, Qiyana dressed to impress at True Damage's sold-out concert in Paris. While the paparazzi swarmed her with photos and questions, she reveled in the attention, knowing this was only the beginning of her empire of celebrity."
[Images when this skin is available in the store!]


True Damage Yasuo

1350 RP
"As enigmatic as he is skilled, Yasuo is the veteran producer all others turn to for inspiration. His beats transcend genre, painting whole universes with wild textures of sound.
