Additionally her attacks spreads to nearby enemies dealing physical damage. The spread attacks can crit, life-steal and on-hit are reduced to 30% effectives on spread attacks. The spread attacks also deals 250% damage to minions below 30% health.

If it hits an enemy it lingers dealing additional damage. at the end of its range it expands. R W: Yunara fires a laser that deals AD damage and slows by 99% decaying over 1 second.
