SKILLS
Vampire Pact
Each time Carmilla deals damage to an enemy hero, she steals 7–11 Physical Defense & Magic Defense (scales with level) from them. The stolen Physical and Magic Defense can stack up to 5 times and last 5 seconds. However, Carmilla can only steal defense from the same enemy hero once every 5 seconds.
Crimson Flower
Cooldown: 9 s
slow
Carmilla summons two Crimson Flowers that circle around her for 5 seconds dealing 100–200 (+50% MP) magic damage each time they hit an enemy and slowing them by 10% for 0.8 seconds (the slow effect stacks up to 50%). The circling speed of the Crimson Flowers also increases with each hit.[speed unknown]
Carmilla recovers 75–150 (+35% MP) HP each time a Crimson Flower deals damage (only recovers 30% of that amount when hitting Minions).
Bloodbath
Cooldown: 12–8 s by level
stun
Carmilla accumulates Bloodbath Energy, gaining 70% Movement Speed that decays over 4.5 seconds.
Use Again: Carmilla unleashes the accumulated Bloodbath Energy on the target enemy hero or Creep, dealing 150–300 (+120% MP) magic damage and stunning them for 0.6 seconds. The damage and stun duration scale with the accumulation time (up to 100%).
Curse of Blood
Cooldown: 60 / 52 / 44 s by level
immobilizeslow
Carmilla casts Curse of Blood on the target location, slowing enemies hit by 50%. After 0.8 seconds, enemies still within the area will take 450–750 (+130% MP) magic damage, and will be immobilized for 1 seconds, slowed by 30% and linked for 5 seconds.
When a linked enemy takes damage or becomes controlled, all the other linked targets take 50% of the damage and become controlled for 100% of the duration. Enemies can move away from one another to break the link.[range unknown]

HIDDEN MECHANICS
What the in-game descriptions do not tell you: crowd-control rules and verified skill quirks. How crowd control works →
Vampire Pact- Only Carmilla's basic attacks and skills can trigger Vampire Pact.
- Enemies can purify themselves to remove the invisible debuff from this skill.
Bloodbath- Stun — basic-level control: interrupts only some skills, not most channels; blocked by control immunity.
- Cooldown only starts when the skill was casted or expired.
- Bloodbath Energy can fully charge for 2.5 seconds, and can overcharge it for another 2 seconds.
Curse of Blood- Immobilize — low-level control: does not interrupt skills — the target can still cast; blocked by control immunity.
