Pounce

Pounce is not an attack. This means it will "go through" block, dodge, and other abilities which specifically trigger on an attack. It also will not trigger abilities like Life Siphon and Rend which require an attack.

Pounce is simply an ability that deals damage, similar to Psychic Ping or bomb/cone abilities.

Pounce is an example of a damage ability. See Big Four for more information on damage abilities versus attacks.
