(Not sure how far your coding knowledge goes, but in brief, texture atlases are used to reduce the number of total textures that have to be accessed to draw the scene, so rather than 1 texture per 1 ability, you make a giant texture with all the abilities. Fewer textures, even if they’re bigger, leads to better performance.)
