Being CC'd during the channel which summons it causes it to be interrupted and wastes the Eye. If you get it, position carefully, if the other team did, take advantage.

The wall briefly knocks' up the target if they are hit by the wall. that is why Yorick can proc CoTC.

This should have been better advertised tbf. I didn't know about it until I saw it happen on a stream. Oh the times I could have interrupted the channel before that - and ever since, not a single chance.

i was summoning rift herald once. i was kinda close to the enemy thresh but my master yi was standing between me and him so its like "if he walks up to me and dies he loses the tower anyways so its fine" . . . and then WHILE IM CHANNELING master yi fucks off and thresh just casually walks up and flays me

I CANT STOP THE CHANNEL, and he fucking blames me

DUDE JUST STAND THERE. THATS ALL YOU HAVE TO DO. you dont even need to do anything just stand there like the scary master yi you are

It's quite satisfying to pull off, especially if my enemy toplaner is standing at the brush near my tower. I have burned flash to stop it, but it's worth it.

Yep had game just the other day where I helped the jungler with herald, he ran up to it, got it, then dashed off and tried to stupidly unleash it right under tower in the middle of a teamfight while ignoring all the pings and chats for him to stay back and unleash it from a safe distance.

Needless to say, the channel was interrupted and the herald was lost. I sometimes wonder if he was trolling, or just really really really stupid.

Naah, in my games when my team manages to steal it from me they just let it expire, i don't have these problems. Or they use it a mile away so the whole enemy team has the time to react and group to kill it while the other 2 lanes have negative pressure and we also lost sometimes a turret while our herald was on. Or they just don't come at all when i spawn it so it goes wasted anyway.
