Master Yi Dying While Using Q

Robert Smith··2 votes·1,888 views

During a game the enemy Ahri was able to kill me twice when I Alpha Strike her. I am not on the map nor visible but I still died to her after I Q and before she throws the sphere. I thought Yi was able to dodge skills like that like Fizz or Vlad and only channels or DOT could kill him. Is this working as intended or Fizz and Vlad the only people who are able to dodge skill shots

It's working as intended.

The thing to remember is that, despite what people think, things are not implemented all playing with the same rules even if they are similar or share a few words in the tooltip; this isn't Magic: The Gathering.

Alpha Strike is an Untargetable Dash, it does make him untargetable but that does not mean he can't take damage, just that he can't be targeted. Fizz's E is in a different category.

Wasn't the Ignite that killed me. I had 300 health and died before My Q finished.

FYI: Ignite can do more than 300 damage.

Gotcha.

The rest is still applicable though; Master Yi's Q and Fizz's E just work differently.

Tip: That's just a link. Nobody can tell what you mean when you do this.

If you are trying to cite a source: That's fine but unnecessary. If you are trying to disagree: That's just a link, not a reasoned response and I suggest reading it yourself; it supports what I wrote. Specifically, "Master Yi's Q and Fizz's E just work differently...Fizz's E is in a different category."

Oh yeah, I was in the middle of editing what I was gonna say, and then got too lazy lol.

Basically, projectiles mid flight hit on completion. But he said he died before the end of Alpha Strike. He shouldn't have died until the end unless Ahri used a DoT effect.

But I figure he probably just died right at the end, since it's hard to tell. So I never finished the post.

EDIT: If he did actually die before the end of Alpha Strike, then things are not working as intended and it is a bug.

I gotcha. Sometimes individuals do that junk, so I never know. "Is he adding to the discussion? Or just being passive-aggressive?" lol

I hear ya, I figured it's the same.

Yi becomes untargetable, not invulnerable when he uses his Q. Anything that is already applied will continue to do damage.

Fizz and Vlad can dodge the Ahri Q and both say they become untargetable. The damage was not an applied damage since she threw the orb after I Q'd her and I died before I came back.

Because of the order the animations take place in it is quite possible for Ahri to deal damage with her Q, have your own Q animation go, and then Ahri's damage is applied.

It could use a little cleaning up, but this is how it seems to work.

This still works with AoE whcih again Fizz and Vlad can avoid the damage from lets say a Nasus E
