What's a clever thing you did in game that was completely by accident?

So, I was Lux playing against a Morgana. I was under my turret and the Morgana put a puddle down next to me. I snared her, and then walked into the puddle, letting it damage me. Because Morgana damaged me this way, the turret started taking shots at her while she was snared. The Morgana was so impressed! She started going on in chat about how smart a move that was and how she didn't expect me to do that on purpose. I didn't have the heart to tell her that I honestly forgot the puddle was there and it was a total accident.

Accidentally found out about shacos clone recalling.

I was playing ap shaco vs akali top and had to ult to dodge her stun or I wouldve died.

Q away and recalled in a bush. Pushed the wave with my clone. Akali got tricked and used her e on my clone and dashed to it just as I recalled and my clone teleported back to me. Carrying akali all the way back to fountain with me.

I now regularly abuse this trick vs people like Lee, Akali and Kayn who have a (teachnically) unlimited range mobility spell

I've probably baited as many people by accident as I have on purpose. I love taking enemies on chases, and sometimes I get in too deep. In those moments I don't glance at the minimap, but sometimes I just happen to lead them into my entire team by accident.

So I normally dont play Zed but had to panic pick a champ mid so Zed it was.

There was a fight that happened with my laner and my jungler and enemy jungler.
The gank counter gank started I was low on hp from poke so I thought I was surly dead. I shadow steps in and pressed R on the enemy Lux as the enamy Kayn ganked and Udyr joined in. I rolled my face on the keyboard and when I looked up I had double killed them both and was standing back under my turret where I started.

My Udyr said in team chat "Well you didnt need me. GG"

same goes if someone buys cinderhulk / sunfire cape / bami's cinder. if you move next to them while they are bashing your turret, it will target them (and probably inflict a large amount of damage.)

its nice to see such a post tough. i wonder what other people will mention here?

That's all.

Adding to this, thornmail. If you AA someone with thornmail, it counts as them doing damage, thus tower aggro.

These little things can help a lot.

When leblanc still had RR i was using it to scare off an enemy from my teammate and the clone ended up saving them from a blitzcrank hook coming from over a wall (we didnt see the blitz.)

Any of the times I died in what I thought was a 1v5 but either came out ahead or my team aced after me would count, I assume.

I was playing AP Shyvana on a ranked match and a bug landed on my hand, I flicked my hand and E'd over the wall in a blank direction and got a double. When I heard it I was not paying attention to the screen and said GJ on the double and someone said "you got it?" I was extremely confused until I watched the replay lol.

I was playing Thresh against Morgana and threw the hook at her so she'd have to black shield herself, then came in on it to flay their ADC. I ended up flaying BOTH of them because the Q did enough damage to break the shield for a double kill. I forgot if Morgana doesn't put an extra point in E, Thresh can just break her black shield. I abuse this regularly now.

Stunned some one on item 3512 when I was playing Bard as a split pusher back when he came out and Banner was still an item. I now use it in an off meta build so I can R into Q enemys when I roam regardless of if they have minions or terrain. No one is safe. Its also a good way to save your ADC with predictable location setting abilities like Yasuo Zed MasterYi and can be used to self peel off melee champions under pressure with a quick hotkey of 1 into Q.

I was playing Chogath starting on red side and the enemy team had gotten a double kill on dragon side river. I seen the scuttle had just popped back up and went to go kill it figuring the enemy team had already left since they were all like sub 100 hp each. As I was coming down on the right side of mid lane, I decided to use my Q to see if scuttle was in the river bush. Turns out there were FOUR people in that bush recalling, 3 died immediately to my Q and the fourth died to the rest of my combo + R. When asked if it was warded I replied "No, I was actually just looking for scuttle" lol.

Coolest thing I've seen was a friend playing tank Maokai mid back in season 3ish. Enemyjungle was Nocturne . For those who didn't play back then, Noc's ultused to be near global.... The range was nuts. And you could target him while he was in flight (was just very hard with lack of vision).

My friend went to engage on his lane opponent with arcane shift and wound up grabbing Noc on his way to gank bot. I can only imagine that jungler's face when his 3v2 gank suddenly turned 3v4 because the red jungler counter-ganked too

I believe the first time I used Neeko 's clone to eat a Teemo mushroom, it was by accident.

Now I use it all the time to eat mushrooms and absorb Caitlyn traps, to block Ahri charms and Thresh hooks and Morgana bindings and all kinds of single-targeted traps and skillshots...it's arguably the difference between a good Neeko and a great one.

I was adc Cait and sometimes when I am bot side I throw a random Q on the drake pit. Without a ward or anything I just popped the drake. Stole it without even knowing that enemy team was on it. :'D was coolest moment.

I was playing Talon in the Top lane, around 20 minutes or so I had to 1v2 in the Top lane ( as Top, Ornn as Support). I knew Ornn was hiding in the bushes so I didn't engage at all because of that. The moment I placed a Ward in the bush that Ornn was hiding in, he ulted me, Vi tower dived me, I flashed and ulted out of panic (since I know Vi's ult is a point and click), and in the end Vi died to me. I was running for my life, my screen was away from the tower, I didn't expect Vi to die. That kill was completely accidental, I was just scared for my life. Not sure If this was clever, but using my stealth from my ultimate to avoid hers was clever in my eyes.
