League of Legends Hand of Baron

What is it?

Hand of Baron is a team-wide neutral buff granted by slaying Baron Nashor. It is available only on Summoner's Rift. It can be identified by swirling violet runes on the ground around the champion. The buff is lost upon a champion's death and cannot be transferred to another champion, unlike the Crest of Insight and Crest of Cinders, which are not team-wide buffs.

The duration of the buff is 3 minutes before disappearing, assuming that the holder has not been killed before it runs out.
