If I had to pick one bug that tilts me off the face of the earth...

When you make a great escape from an enemy champion with just a sliver of health, usually less than 100hp ( Try to be about 10 hp or lower after a trade to recreate the bug), and about 3 to 7 seconds later you die. Red buff? no. Deathfire touch? no. Liandry's then? nope. Elder? Of course not. Oh, maybe it was duskblade, or minions? Aha, no. This took place in the jungle, twice as i recall it, and there were no monsters aggro'd to attack my champion, both times. So what could it have been? Unless Xin Zhao and then some other champions just kinda recieved DoT without any heads up, irdfk. It wasn't a bleed from a death's dance either. There was literally no reason in sight, and the enemy Xin Zhao didn't know what it was either.

You could theorize it's a sort of "lag" (Not regarding the other players ping and fps, mine were just fine the few times this occured) in which the game takes a few seconds to do the math and realise "Oh, he should've died there" and just kinda screws you last second? Is that not a bug?

And no, it wasn't a teemo cloaked with a sunfire cape, either. xD

there is always a reason for damage.

it's never lag as everything is calculated on the server.

you got replay?

look at deathrecap next time.

but i can tell you there always is a source of damage, nobody just takes damage for no reason.

Often times the deathrecap lies though, so try to think about where it might have come from. one time it said i was killed by the item zekes herold dealing about 400 true damage when nobody on the enemy team had zekes herold lol

Could it have been the dot from applied from auto attacks from challenging smite?

I would think so, but this occurred multiple times in different scenarios. Twice in an encounter with mid lane champions encountered in the jungle (no aggro'd monsters, ignite or DfT nor DoT spells) what's strange Is I recall clearly one of those aforementioned times I was slain I had grevious wounds applied to me. I recall this twice actually. Does grevious wounds do DoT? Not counting ignite and etc. If not then I'd encourage everyone to look into grevious wounds asap. I can't clearly recall the incident with the Xin Zhao, however your proposal of the DoT via challenging smite, I believe, may have just been the cause. Apologies for not being able to remember that incident clearly despite everything else.
