Stat Impact

What Ethereal Shift actually gives you

Ethereal Shift delivers 20 spirit power, 30% spirit resist, and 3m m move speed. These bonuses determine which heroes and builds below actually benefit from the slot, and why the win rates on certain heroes skew so far above or below the item's average.

Best Heroes

Who wins most with Ethereal Shift

Ethereal Shift performs strongest on Victor (64.9% WR across 24,919 games), Kelvin (63.9% WR across 335 games), and Abrams (62.1% WR across 5,232 games). These heroes convert the item's stat bonuses into real win rate gains, usually because their kit scales linearly with the stats the item provides. If you play one of these heroes, this item belongs in your core build.

Most Picked By
