Why does Elise take damage from Fizz's ultimate during Rappel?

Why does Elise take damage from Fizz's ultimate during Rappel? - Woman holding flowers in hands in water

I noticed that if Fizz tags Elise with his ultimate, then even if Elise casts Rappel, she will still take damage! I thought that Elise becomes untargetable during Rappel. Why does she still get hit?



Best Answer

To be more clear, untargetable only means new effects cannot be placed on you. Anything already on your character (DoTs, Zilean bombs, Fizz fish, etc) will still apply. Works like that for Vladimir as well. If you want a character that actually becomes invincible, try Kayle or Lissandra.

Does Elise E do damage?

Yes Elise continues to take damage from debuffs applied to her during Rappel. She however does not take damage from Area Targeted effects during this time. It can therefore be used to 'dodge' many things, just not everything.

    Answer 2

    You give the answer yourself. During Rappel, she is "untargetable" which means that all damage taken will still apply. Ignite will still tick during Rappel. On the other hand, "invulnerable", the effect given by Zhonya's Hourglass, does stop the damage.
