Tides of Blood - New E

First Cast: Vladimir begins charging, increasing Tides of Blood's damage while rapidly consuming 10% maximum health over the next second. Vladimir is slowed after this initial second if he continues to charge. After 1.5 or if interrupted, Vladimir will automatically use the second cast.
Second Cast: Vladimir unleashes the stored blood in a nova of bolts, each dealing between 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 (+ 1.5% maximum health) (+ 35% AP) and 60 / 80 / 100 / 120 / 140 (+ 10% maximum health) (+ 70% AP) magic damage to the first enemy they hit. Enemies can intercept multiple bolts but can only be damaged once. Minions cannot block more than 5 bolts and, if they do get hit by one, the bolt will deal area-of-effect damage that only affects other nearby minions. If charged for at least 1 second, enemies hit are also slowed by 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60% for a few seconds.
Tides of Blood's charge-up is not interrupted by casting Sanguine Pool but it will be canceled early if the second cast is used.
