#SmallIndieCompany: Lord Darius Q not displaying the indicator in replay or game.

I guess if I had seen that his Q was back up and casting, I would have flashed to still diie to the 300 bleed dmg level 2. I guess I should have noticed the model anyway. I don't play top much so who knows. Maybe Darius doesn't give an indicator like I used to think. I mean you see the effects after Q casts but that's a little too late to be an actual indicator.

It's pretty obvious when dar is about to q, and it gives a .75 sec telegraphed lead time after activating. Also, Darius doesn't do 300 bleed damage at lvl 2 unless you were literally in the fight for more than 10 secs straight lol. In that case I'd be hard pressed to believe that either of you could endure damage for 10 secs or more in a straight up fight at level 2. Just as importantly, you allowed him to get 5 stacks at level 2 before he can do a full combo, which is lmostly on you for not understanding the matchups properly.

right. i haven't top laned in over 1.5 years. Thought I heard kled did more dmg than him.

Especially with:

  • I started right after he missed Q on me (both of us full health)
  • I unloaded both my Q and W on him
  • He was fighting into 5 of my minions and he had only 2
  • I had ignite and he did not. (Which I used to stop his one heal)
  • I was full hp, and full skarl. he was not.

So yes the fight did last 10 seconds (since it started with him missing Q entirely), but I landed more abilities and an ignite on him. When two lane bullies are fighting, it feels weird that you can miss abilities. Be down 100 hp, not have ignite, but still win.

That all being said, pretty sure that ability should have an indicator so you know if you have to flash it or not or where it'll hit unless you want to claim 'Well riot feels you need 56 games as him and against him to just have intuitive nature on where it hits'. It is Riot though and they normally don't fix bugs unless it's with a skin. This is a skin though. so maybe even if it is obvious, letting you kno wwhere it hits is kind of something Riot has silently promised us (I mean hitboxes and indicators being as shit as they are) with 99% of abilities showing it outside of the model with an indicator.
