I was just spectating a game in the ingame viewer and when I pressed C, I noticed a line called dodge. Who uses dodge?

EDIT: thank you guys for answering Jax's E.

''''Dodge was a champion statistic that granted a champion a percentage chance to completely ignore an autoattack from an aggressor. Dodge was gradually removed from the game as a global champion statistic from patches V1.0.0.124 through V1.0.0.132.''''

Jax's Counter Strike increased his dodge chance by 10 / 12 / 14 / 16 / 18 %. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.132)

Nidalee's Aspect of the Cougar increased her dodge chance by 10%. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.124)

Sivir'sFleet of Foot increased her dodge chance by 10 / 15 / 20 / 25% while moving. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.130)

Udyr's Monkey's Agility increased his dodge chance by 3% for 5 seconds every time he switched stances up to a maximum of 9%. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.131)

Ninja Tabi: Unique passive: 12% dodge, 25 armor, Unique passive: Enhanced movement 2. 750 Gold.. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.132)

Phantom Dancer: 20% dodge, 50% attack speed, 30% critical strike, 15% movement speed. 2345 Gold.. (dodge removed in V1.0.0.107)

This is why I'm asking. I can't think of anyone who has it. I wonder if it's being used for stuff where you can temporarily not get hit.

Jax still has it.

Counterstrike offers 100% dodge chance.

Okay, thanks. Now I know why it's there, but that seems like such a narrow use case.

Dodge is not a thing anymore. Jax used to have it on his stun, and it used to be available on runes, masteries, and items (NInja Tabi, specifically), but it was removed because Jax was incredibly toxic with it. (1v5 pentakills IN THEIR FOUNTAIN toxic), since he could get up to about 95% dodge chance, and turret shots could be dodged.

He could get about 60% max, and that's from way back when phantom dancer had dodge.

That's what I thought too, so it's weird to see it referenced still. I mean if you've got a line named dodge under champion stats, one would expect something to need it for it to still be there.

Sivir's passive also used to grant dodge chance while she was moving.

Dodge used to be "critical strikes" for defense, but was removed for being toxic and way too random. They even gave the example of how frustrating it was for an enemy to escape because the last auto-attack needed to kill them was dodged. Yet the same can be said to crit...

You know, as someone who's played AD&D before, you kind of get used to missing attacks. That's part of the game. I can see why you could argue that sure it's frustrating to deal with someone who's dodging you AAs, but on the other hand, why not give someone the opportunity to build an accuracy item?

Well, as for crit, I get the arguments for and against it.

Jax still has dodge, just not passive now.

His E now gives a 100% dodge for a short period upon activation, he can't do anything during the time frame until it runs out or he presses it again though.

Okay, thank you.

So of 100+ champs, one champ with a active ability still uses that mechanic.

Jax can still AA while using Counterstrike. As well as use Q and his ult. Unsure about W though.

LankPants1 votes

He can W too. Counterstrike doesn't stop Jax from doing Jax things at all.
