Keywords are named abilities that belong to each Champion. They activate at random times during battle, and certain Champions' Signature Abilities and Special Attacks have a fixed percentage on when an ability activates. The effect of these abilities can only be increased by Ranking Up.
Certain keywords are exclusive to certain Champions (for example, Unstoppable can only be found on Unstoppable Colossus or Juggernaut). However, every Champion has at least one keyword.
