Redemption

Redemption is a teamfight reset item that rewards supports who can anticipate the fight area and extend skirmishes around objectives.

Redemption is not there to save an ally who is already dead. It becomes strong when you read fight timings well, place the zone before the trade is over, and the game creates grouped fights around dragon, Herald, or towers. The longer the fight lasts, the more valuable the item becomes.

It is a strong option for enchanters and utility supports when both teams group often and objectives are contested with numbers. It is less impressive in split or ultra-bursty games, but it becomes extremely valuable once fights happen in multiple waves and an AoE heal can relaunch everyone.
