   NEW Shark Bait

   • Upon taking fatal damage, you become a Shark Bait, causing you to enter a zombie state for 3.5 seconds, during which your Move Speed is set to a static 400, you gain Ghosting, and enemies within 400 units of you are slowed by 40%.
   • At the end of the duration, a massive shark emerges from beneath you that lets out a powerful chomp in a 400 radius, dealing 120 - 350 (based on level) (+10 / 30% of the target's missing health) magic damage to all enemies within the area and knocking them up for 1 second.
   • While under the zombie state, you are able to move and become invulnerable, untargetable, and immune to crowd control, but you are also rendered unable to declare basic attacks, cast abilities, use summoner spells, and activate items.
   • At Max Level, everyone on your team will turn into a shark on death.
