# Skill

There are 2 types of skills formed in each character. Skill will depend on the character's base stats and class.

**Normal Skill:** Physical damage is dealt by all basic attacks, and is also dealt by some abilities and item effects. 

Most physical damage is based on the champion's attack damage, but not all damage based on attack damage does physical damage; a small number of champion abilities that deal physical damage can be strengthened with ability power.

**Ultimate Skill:**  Ults are very strong spells that can single-handedly change the tide of any battle. Because they are so powerful, ultimate abilities have the longest cooldown timer, and can be used only sparingly – forcing players to carefully choose when to commit to using their ult, or alternatively trying to force opponents to waste their own ults to create more advantageous engagement opportunities.
