I was thinking about Zilean's Time Bomb ability, and I started thinking about fun ways to use it. One such way would be to cast Time Bomb on an allied champion, while they're invisible. (Eve, Shaco, Teemo, etc.)
I'm wondering though–technically if that explodes near an enemy champ, Zilean is the one dealing damage, not Eve/the invisible ally. So what I'm curious about is whether or not the invisible ally will be revealed when "delivering" the Time Bomb.
(Obviously the enemy would know "something's up" if an invisible ally is detonated, even if not technically revealed. I am just trying to find out if they will then become VISIBLE to the enemy)

Stealth can only be broken by a stealthed champion performing an action that breaks stealth.
Though not viable by any means, before the sunfire cape's damage was a unique passive, it was fully possible to simply buy multiple capes and follow an enemy champion around while stealthed, relying on the damage to slowly kill them.
In this case, Time Bomb reacts the same as if you cast it on a ward - because the target is stealthed, the effect won't be visible, nor will it break stealth upon detonation. The enemy would just get a sudden burst of damage with no apparent cause.
