Official Effects

UNIQUE PASSIVE - STORMRAIDER: Dealing 25% of a champion's max Health in damage within 2.5 seconds applies Squall to them and grants you 25% Movement Speed for 2.5 seconds. (25 second cooldown)

UNIQUE PASSIVE - SQUALL: After 2 seconds, strike the target with lightning for 125 (+10% AP) magic damage. If the target dies before Squall triggers, it deals the same damage to nearby enemies and grants you 25 gold.

When Should You Build Stormsurge?

Build Stormsurge when an AP burst champion can remove at least a quarter of a target's Health quickly and then capitalize on Squall and the movement burst.

Best on: AP assassins and burst mages with fast, reliable combos.
Good against: Best into fragile low-MR targets; weak against tanks, shields, and defensive items that stop you reaching the damage threshold in time.
When to buy it: Usually first or second for early snowball pressure, before enemy Health and Magic Resistance make triggering Squall unreliable.

Gold Efficiency Breakdown

A theoretical stat comparison priced from Wild Rift base items. Stats without a basic-item anchor use the source's fixed estimates; slow resistance, damage effects, shields, actives, and other utility remain unpriced. Use this to compare similar items, not as a complete measure of in-game power.
