Can we have a hitbox update instead of a class update next?

A few champions that could really use a touch up on their hitboxes or animations.

Blitzcrank Q, Darius E, Fizz R, Gragas E, Jhin W, Leona E, Lux Q and R, Morgana Q, Nidalee Q, Nautilus Q, Tahm Kench Q, Warwick R, Thresh Q.

Edit: Not saying they are all to big, some are actually far smaller than the animation.

I would rather see an Item rework.

Items are the reason the game is unbalanced.

Hello, I am a Blitzcrank main, 92nd highest Mastery NA. Here are my thoughts on the matter of hitboxes:

I am seeing a lot of : "These hitboxes are TOO BIG" for skill shots like the Blitz Q.

My response to that?

Making it thinner PLEASE. Watch me Q you when you are RIGHT next to a minion or while standing in the middle of a wave! With a thinner Q I'd say I would land MORE Q's not less. Being able to position closer to the minion wave and not hit them with a thinner skill shot (think Ez Q) would actually be a BUFF to a skilled Blitzcrank.

So be careful what you wish for...

I honestly don't care about any of these except graggy's..

I laned against a graggas a little while back, as singed. So a combination of me dodging and him being a bit off with his bodyslam +/- point blank (you know like, when you like try to hit someone and they just happen to decide to walk the opposite way?) and he dashes straight past me. I'm like "HAHA gotcha" and try to fling him, Singed turns around and graggas ends his bodyslam animation.... I get fucking knocked up. This guy managed to fuck up a point blank fucking body slam and gets rewarded for it anyway? Cmon man.

What is wrong with Tahm Kench Q? If anything it should be widened.

TBH, if you are getting hit by Warwick ult to a point where you think it is a problematic hitbox, either that Warwick has spent a lot of time practicing to hit his ult, or you are not even trying to dodge it/ get bodyblocked by team mates. That's a very easy skillshot to miss.

I wish I could upvote this 10 times. Ultimately, when you play against a champ or with a champ a ton you start to get used to how large/small the hitbox is. At times though, you face someone you don't see often and you forget that the hitbox for a tiny projectile is actually as wide as a truck.

Fix the hitbox or make the graphic of the item closer to the same size as the hitbox.

Everytime someone mentions shit hitboxes nobody brings out Taliyah . Her Q hitbox is so bad that you want to hit caster minions but end up hitting melees lol.

Oh dear God Lux R. I just don't get how it works. Do its visuals have special interactions with the camera angle or something?

MysticFlameHaze8/22/2017, 7:55:47 PM4 votes

lol im glad your board got through, instead of mine where i essentially ask the same thing for them to work on and get downvoted, i called out the hookers hitboxes and the fact that blitz pull was seen going through champions in lcs but no one cared

cmon dud fizz ult hitbox got nerfed like 3 times lel

They actually updated Fizz R, it was MUCH worse back then right after his rework.

Also, the DEFINITELY need to rework Blitzcrank and Thresh Q, definitely Blitz Q. I cannot tell you how many fucking times I was behind minions and the arm clearly missed/hit the minion, yet I get pulled.

I don't care if the htibox stays the same size, even if unfair sometimes. I just want the damn visuals to match. Not fair clearly dodging something and then being hit anyway. If I had been able to see the actual hitbox, I could've just dodged it either way

don't forget Xerath 's Q indicator... I swear that I walk outside of the indicator and still get hit by the tip item 3070

This is what the Mods should be commenting on stuff like this not the pixel art contest -_-

But then what would I blame if I get hit by skillshots?

Gragas E hitbox was even in LCS where chat went on fire with:REMAKE spam.I hope they finnaly realise that its too broken.

Lux ultimate doesnt have a hitbox issue

Luxs Q, though, is just retarded

I'd love if at minimum the game had little hitbox circles under our champion's feet.

Would help stop those 'wtf how'd that hit me' moments and help me personally for hitting skillshots on larger champs because I fire em towards where I think the edge of their hitboxes are and it feels like it went through them.

Grizzlpaw8/23/2017, 8:55:26 PM2 votes

Hitboxes are only half the problem. Champion hitboxes are always circular. When trying to hit a skillshot on an enemy champion, you want to aim for their feet. That's where the center of their hitbox is. If you try to aim for the head the hitbox may look as if it passed right through the enemy champion, when in reality their head pokes out of their hitbox.

On the other hand, thin characters like jhin may have a hitbox that extends past their actual champion model. If you've ever seen a Jhin try to sidestep a blitzcrank hook, only for it to seemingly miss by a few pixels and still hit him, that's why.

Add in Yorick E. It misses soo often even tho they are in the radical.

AlienPrimate8/22/2017, 5:20:58 PM1 votes

Or just fix hitboxes going into or leaving the river as that is the problem with all of the ranged skills you mentioned.
