Corrosion Scythe

Corrosion Scythe is a fundamental power spike for Argus. Its extra Attack Speed directly reduces the delay on Meteoric Sword and accelerates Malice Energy accumulation for Warmonger. Since Meteoric Sword applies Basic Attack effects, Corrosion Scythe applies extra damage and a stacking slow on every strike. This ensures Argus can relentlessly chase down targets using Demonic Grip and hold them down during Eternal Evil.

Corrosion Scythe adds flat extra physical damage to Basic Attacks while applying a slowing effect that makes escaping Claude nearly impossible. When combined with the movement speed steal from Art of Thievery and the double attacks from Battle Side-by-side, Claude easily sticks to targets. It ensures enemies remain trapped inside the radius of Blazing Duet while boosting his own attack speed stacks even further.

This core item grants bonus Physical Damage and applies a stacking slow on Basic Attacks. Because Hanabi's passive Ninjutsu: Petal Barrage inherits Attack Effects on bounce, Corrosion Scythe slows multiple clustered enemies at once. The extra Attack Speed boosts her active Ninjutsu: Equinox uptime, letting her constantly refresh her crowd-control-immune shield while tethering fleeing foes.

Corrosion Scythe is a critical power spike for Ixia. Its stacking attack speed bonus speeds up how rapidly she can trigger Siphon Starlium. Furthermore, the slowing effect on basic attacks synergizes with Dual Beam and Star Helix, helping her keep enemies trapped inside her basic attack range and setting up massive multi-target hits during Full Barrage.

Corrosion Scythe is essential for Karrie's kit. Its passive adds extra Physical Damage and slows target enemies on basic attacks. When paired with Speedy Lightwheel, Karrie rapidly applies slowing effects, preventing enemies from escaping her assault. This allows her to easily stack Lightwheel Mark while making Phantom Step dashes even more lethal during active chases.

Essential for Masha's basic attack focus. The extra physical damage and stacking slow work synergistically with Wild Power to stick to escaping targets. Once finished, Masha can easily lock down enemies during her Thunderclap initiation without letting them run away, transforming her into a lethal single-target hunter who excels at relentless chasing and securing early dueling victories across the map.

Corrosion Scythe is Minsitthar's primary offensive spike. The bonus physical damage on basic attacks combined with stacking slow effects complements Shield Assault's enhanced basic attack strikes. Slowing enemies makes it almost impossible for them to escape King's Calling, especially since the ultimate already disables movement skills. Furthermore, the rapid attack speed accelerates stack generation for Mark of the King, enabling Minsitthar to lock down targets with frequent stuns and self-healing.

Corrosion Scythe accelerates Miya's attack speed while applying a slowing effect on basic attacks. When paired with Moon Arrow, the extra arrows apply attack effects to multiple targets at once, making it impossible for enemies hit by Arrow of Eclipse to escape her relentless assault. The extra physical damage on basic attacks combined with stacking attack speed makes her laning trades significantly stronger.

Corrosion Scythe is vital for Sun because his Doppelgangers inherit attack effects. The Corrosion passive adds extra Physical Damage and slows enemy targets upon landing Basic Attacks. When combined with Instantaneous Move, Sun and his illusions close the gap and lock down fleeing targets instantly. This item fundamentally upgrades his laning phase, turning his poked enemies into easy, inescapable targets while massively boosting his objective push capability.

Corrosion Scythe is a fundamental offensive core item for Thamuz. The bonus basic attack damage and stacking slow effects complement his passive Grand Lord Lava by making it nearly impossible for enemies to escape his melee range. Furthermore, the attack speed synergy directly boosts Cauterant Inferno, allowing Thamuz to attack rapidly during his ultimate state to maximize his health recovery per hit and trigger guaranteed lava eruptions constantly.

Corrosion Scythe serves as Wanwan's core power spike. The extra attack speed elevates both her Tiger Pace dash frequency and the firing speed of Crossbow of Tang. Its basic attack slowing effect keeps enemy heroes caught in place, making it much easier to circle around them to strike all weaknesses. Additional physical damage on basic attacks further enhances her trading capabilities throughout the mid game.

Corrosion Scythe builds up extra physical damage on Basic Attacks while slowing targets on hit. This slow effect is vital for Zilong because enemies often attempt to run once flipped by Spear Flip. When combined with Supreme Warrior, the massive attack speed boost allows him to rapidly max out slow stacks and bonus attack damage, preventing targets from escaping his relentless spear strikes during ambushes.
