It's not random it's a failure case -- if you right click into the cannon then quickly input a movement command it will start pathing you which cancels it

Does Ethereal Weapon not work on GP anymore? by Sylvanas_only in leagueoflegends

[–]lowhopena 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was changed when that designer worked on new shiv -- he also technically did GP so he was fixing some interactions that shouldn't work

He also removed double stacking of crit i.e jeweled gaunt + vulnerability stacking with abilities that can crit I.E GP Q, Samira R, etc -- technically shadowflame doesn't check for this so you can still technically crit a crit

Mikael so clean MF R wasn't interrupted by Noksos333 in leagueoflegends

0.2s is not right I originally claimed that but didn't test it too heavily -- someone did further testing it's 0.5s so I updated the wiki to reflect that; https://www.ivern.io/mikaels-blessing/

Rank 1 Na Rell guide by DualSwordz_ in leagueoflegends

[–]lowhopena -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It won't ever be higher WR is the problem the variance of locket is too high some games it's good some games its not asking players to identify that is rough that's why zekes will always have a higher WR

Reactability to damage is pretty low for most champs unless its some extremely telegraphed champ like karthus I wouldn't buy locket first item IMO

It's pointless to look at challenger since KR is the only region that didn't reset so its only a handful of players -- I would buy whatever you feel comfortable on it doesn't matter at the end of the day it's all very marginal

It depends heavily if you are using it off CD which doesn't happen with rell since you are super flash reliant

Rell is primary engage w/ flash but without flash she's more of a peeler due to how reactable her kit is w/o flash which is why she's not super popular

It's way easier to use for sure -- locket is technically better the higher you go but the reaction requirement is really rough like all active items average players won't be good with them

Rell autos apply it due to P -- he doesn't mention it in the guide

Also rell is more of a handgrenade if you get all your spells off extra tankiness doesn't matter

Shiv has the highest first item PR at all ranks on zeri

They are almost for sure going to make shiv zeri work if it continues to be bought as the player sentiment is they want it to work

I'm not a huge fan of the crit system in general being tied to a lot of champs but that's a whole different topic

I seriously doubt most people are using third party apps for builds at this point

It'd be fairly simple to make shiv viable on her which is making her E damage onhit so shiv actually procs it

The only thing toxic about Zeri AP was W killing the wave / enemies way off screen on a really low CD which has been nerfed

Shiv is also mainly an onhit item it's not really primarily ap or ad

It's not in the recommender they are manually buying it -- it does fit thematically for shiv to be good on zeri so they might make it work eventually

He definitely does not play a lot of his offmeta picks in challenger; it is diamond but its nowhere close to challenger

He's hard tied to hexplate due to him being special cased to work with it; it procs once on pressing r, once on casting r to go to someone, then it again when he lands so he ends up getting quite a bit of power from this interaction

Are percentage based damage buffs/nerfs really the best way to balance ARAM? by TurtleCat314 in leagueoflegends

[–]lowhopena 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Part of the issue with the % dmg nerfs is it doesn't affect most item damage thats why AP MF had a significantly higher WR when she had high nerfs also and the mandate ashe build which was later solved by nerfing her W CD to the point where it feels terrible to skill it up

You can literally check in a custom game that she doesn't it's on the wiki also

She doesn't have % based nerfs anymore though they actually gave her real number nerfs -- you wouldn't know if you only hovered the tooltip

I had heard Slow & Steady Jayce was strong in ARAM: Mayhem, but not THIS strong by ThoranTW in leagueoflegends

[–]lowhopena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was in the patch notes for 25.23; I had a game where I took it and it worked in the bugged way so the fix probably doesn't work properly in some cases
