Ryze can move and cast other spells while Realm Warp is charging without cancelling the portal.

Spell Flux's short cooldown allows it to be used to spread Flux to many enemies.

Rappel has a long cooldown. Elise is vulnerable after she has used it.

Elise's Spider Form is more dangerous when you are at low health, and her Human Form more potent when you are at high health.
