    You attach them to your champipns and they give them particular boosts.
    You can only match them class to class, and ideally you want to match relics with champions that will benefit from the boost. With Black Panther, you probably want to pair him with a champ that crits a lot.

    The most beneficial aspect of relics is the striker. A striker works kinda like a special attack. You have a power tank for the striker that you will build up and you activate the striker like you would a special. Each relic has a special bonus when you throw the striker, but the best part is the passive stun you apply (regardless of stun immunities) at the end of the striker. This helps you extend combos, find opportunities to throw heavies, and deal some extra damage.

    Only for extending your combo.

    Tell me you don't even look into relics without telling me you don't look into relics.

    Relics are for understanding the past and predicting the future.

    Then your doing it wrong, being inefficient and ineffective

    Serious note though, relics have the potential of being amazing. Just look at venom relic on venom or juggy on juggy as examples.

    Bingo!

    Sure I could get a tiny boost on some very specific champs, but I’m not interested in spending many hours reading up on relics

    It takes at most 1 minute.... Just match the relic abilities with a champ who gets them too
