Ivern's enchanter abilities make him a viable support pick, similar to his jungle role but with a focus on lane presence and ally empowerment.

  • Rootcaller (Q): Projectile that roots targets and allows allies to dash to them
  • Wonderbloom (W): Creates bushes that grant bonus auto attack damage to allies
  • Blossom! (R): Summons Daisy, a controllable golem that knocks up enemies every third attack
