TMI
- •Alistar's "Bang Bang" combo (WQ) Dash to the target with W, then cast Q right before impact The author turns off W's smartcast for this — it almost never misses now.
- •W cannot be used for InSec Kick. Only Flash + W works for that.
- •R has no
Tenacity. (Commonly misunderstood.)
Removing a persistent-zone CC with R's Cleanse
gets it reapplied immediately.
e.g. Kog'Maw E's 
Slow. - •E's Buff Stack can be seen as a chain visual effect beneath Alistar.
- •Removing Airborne-type CC with R
prevents movement but still allows skill use.
However, W can be cast but its effects are not applied. (Unconfirmed whether it's a bug.)
Alistar doesn't Dash, the target isn't knocked back, and no damage is dealt.
