Bugged or Hacked damage numbers in ARAM (I only play ARAM so not sure about other places)

Over the last few nights I have noticed on occasion that damage from certain people have far exceeded the norm. I play on ARAM and one such instance can be found on 12/5/2014. A game I was in had a Karma, I was playing Anivia. I got hit with a 1385 Karma q non-ult version (the ult version leaves circle on the ground. At first I thought wow a big crit from karma but her ap at the end of the game was maybe 400ish and according to match history she had no crits, which means it was a normal hit from the q. That his aside she was hitting for around 785 on a regular basis with her q, when with that ap she should have been hitting for 500 at most. To hit for 785 on her q her ap would have to be around 880 (it was around 400) or she would have to be getting nearly 130% ap added on. Karma (DawnCorpse13) did have 1 item I don't see too often on aram and that was the frost queen's chain. I noticed something similiar on 12/4/14 with a pantheon (ultraman). Pantheon used his w and crit for 585. He had no ap items (the w is ap based) and no crit damage increasing items (infinity edge) so it should have been around 300ish being a crit but was almost double that. I noticed that he had an atmas impaler which was practically useless on him since he wasn't building health items. I do not know if it is something to do with those items or not, though it is rare to see them on ARAM. I just wanted to let someone know about these cases and I'm certain there are more. If this is a bug or hacking issue I hope that it can be resolved so that others and myself can get a fair go of it when playing a game we enjoy.

death recap is incredibly inaccurate. it's possible that the numbers on the recap simply weren't the real numbers of what killed you

Stopped reading after you thought Karma's Q crit you. If you don't even know the basics of damage and skill in the game you probably are mistaken.

First off, NONE OF KARMAS SKILLS CAN CRIT.

Second, Rune pages such as my AP/Lvl page add 56 ap at level 18.

Third, There are any number of items/Mastery's/Skills that could have made the damage higher, such as DFG. Or more damage to targets lower then 50% HP. Elixers. Tarics ult. so on so forth

I would recommend looking into these things before assuming someone is hacking or abusing a bug.
