| abstract | - A basic attack (also called a standard, normal, or auto attack) is the default means by which a unit deals damage. Champions perform basic attacks when an enemy unit is right-clicked; basic attacks are also performed by an idle champion when an enemy unit ventures too close to it, or when the "attack move" function is used (default Shift + right-click). Monsters and minions perform basic attacks as their only method of dealing damage. These basic attacks are similar in nature to champion basic attacks, as they deal damage based on the unit's attack damage (AD) and use an attack timer which is affected by attack speed (AS).
