I was playing hexakill with muh friends and the enemy team had a Fiora. We werent doing so well but then near the end of the match. Fiora uses her Q on me and hits for 2003. Her AD was around 380 and her Q should only deal around 810 dmg with that much AD.

Weird things have been going on with death recap lately.

Unless you are severely under-leveled...

I was 2 levels behind as Gangplank although i didnt have any armor. It was strange since ive been lunged by her before but it didnt do over 2k damage, around just 600.

Lunge has 2 charges and she could have crit.

600*2.5+600=1950

Seems like a death re-cap glitch. Those happen.

She probably lunge+auto reset crit + lunge + auto reset crit + hydra active, where each action dealing ~400 damage vs. no armor in a max-build-for-maps-you-can-get-Pillager isn't unusual.

Fiora is much more an assassin than anything else, and end-game she can become a terror like Fizz or Pantheon where she doesn't even need her ult to kill someone, and she can kill them exceptionally fast.

Insta-gibbed fools with her plenty of times to know it can all be over in the blink of an eye. Usually with item 3074 item 3035 item 3131 strats for mega wombo-combos.


That said - Ezreal's mystic shot had to get patched because it was critically striking in rare circumstances when it was never intended to critically strike, and similar eyebrow-raising nerfs happen every now and then. There's one with Shen that happens in extremely rare cases.

There's a really small off chance Fiora's lunge could have bugged out and critically struck, so if you have a replay available, test it to rule out Recap failure, and submit it to bug-reports that's a rare possibility.

Was most likely the re-cap messing up with an assassin assassinating though.
