Please fix this

Even when Jax is the only (first) target, he doesn't dodge it

The wiki says his Q is unaffected by dodge and blind but is negated by parry and block. >:l

Jax E is dodge, not Parry or Block.

Zane ZephyrOct 11, 20162 votes

I know that.

It's not affected by Jax's E or blinds, but fiora's parry and pantheon's passive can negate it.

his q is not an auto attack. if jax is dodging yasuos q it should be dodging gp's q, and some other champions im sure im missing

Steel Tempest is treated as a basic attack: It can critically strike, applies on-hit effects, is interruptible by crowd control and its cooldown and cast time are reduced by Attack Speed.

treated is key word gp's q is also treated as a basic attack

FalconPawwwwnchOct 10, 201617 votes

and GP and ez Q are both dodged

then why is it the last time i played gp vs jax i won by q'ing while he used his e?

statelesskillerOct 11, 20163 votes

can confirm as a GP main. jax counter strike does block gp qs. BUT you will still get bandit gold even if the q is blocked. so you probably are just imagining things

i see now thanks for actually making sense

you are not wrong just outdated

yasuo can crit and lifesteal on his q, but yet it cant be dodged? lmao

MunchCrunchLunchOct 11, 20163 votes

in the preaseason. they made it so yasuo q doesn't dodge. it which is bullshit

VasilisGreenOct 11, 20161 votes

In the preseason? I don't remember it being dodgeable before that. Any posts about it would be appreciated.

it's not an aa, it just has all effects of one but still is an ability

It applies on-hit effects to the first enemy struck, and Jax's Counter Strike blocks anything else that applies on-hit effects, including Mystic Shot and Parrrley.

In addition, Steel Tempest can be blocked by Pantheon's passive, so there should be no reason it can't be dodged.

FalconPawwwwnchOct 10, 20164 votes

Yes it is

Anything that applies on hit effects counts as an AA

Ezreal Q is dodged GP Q is dodged Nasus Q is dodged

etc

well then another reason to hate that shit champ, apart from his windwall, no cd dash and free shield.

It doesn't 'technically' count as an aa but they are blocked by jax's E. Only yasuos 1st q applies onhit on the first enemy struck.

Its legit in the tooltip "TREATED AS A BASIC ATTACK" Its funny because its a lie

Tooltips are never accurate. yas will always be a buggy champ.

be fair, Nasus Q is an empowered auto, like a Draven Q or a shovel

Aatrox's Bloodprice isn't dodged

(P.S. not supporting yas, just saying)

Those are called "empowered autos". Yasuo Q is an ability.

Jet SettOct 10, 20163 votes

TwistedFate Ezreal XinZhao MonkeyKing AA abilities should ALL be dodged/affected by blind, Yasuo especially shouldn't be getting special treatment on an enhanced AA that can crit and hit multiple targets and knock up.

Fly Fish MasterOct 10, 20161 votes

Only the first enemy hit has the on-hit effects applied to them. Also, it isn't an enchanced AA. It is an ability. It is basically an enchanced AA, but it still isn't one.

Jet SettOct 10, 20166 votes

By that logic Ezreal's Q shouldn't be dodged due to on-hit effects, but it still is and so should Yasuo's.

Fly Fish MasterOct 11, 20161 votes

Maybe it's like that for some design choice? There are other Enchanced AA abilities like Ekko's E that has the AA dmg of it negated, but the AP is still applied. There is also Azir's soldiers that cannot be dodged. Maybe Yasuo's Q is marked in the coding as an AOE? That is the only thing I can think of. Ezreal's Q is single target. Here is a reddit post listing all the interactions with Jax's E. https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/3ttamk/jaxs_e_interaction_with_champions_spells_items/

UnderscorBunniesOct 11, 20162 votes

Well, considering three of those are empowered AA's, your point is slightly invalidated.

That being said, pretty sure jax and shen should be able to dodge the first two yasuo q's

Jet SettOct 11, 20163 votes

Yasuo's Q is counted as an auto attack in most cases, and the point of this discussion is that for some reason Yas' Qs weren't being dodged at all.

EK KimozziOct 11, 20162 votes

do you know jax counter strikes also reduces the aoe damage skills for 20%? i guess it's because yasuo'q hits multiple targets. in fact his q go through but deals 25% less damage.

Spicy RiceOct 11, 20161 votes

This actually makes sense...

If it also doesn't dodge Ezreal's or Gangplank's Qs, then this is working as intended.

Dodges ezreal Q and I'm pretty sure it dodges GP Q as well. Since yasuo's Q is supposed to be treated as an auto attack, it should dodge that.

DunkinNoobsOct 10, 20161 votes

Are you referring to every Q or just the 3rd one? Because the last Q always works. The first 2 should not.

RequiemsfireOct 10, 20166 votes

I tested, every single Q will bypass counterstrike.

DunkinNoobsOct 10, 201617 votes

Sounds like a bug then because it used to block them.

mustafa2881Oct 11, 20161 votes

ofc its a bug, yasuo's Q is more like an auto attack. get lifesteal, Q, you get HP from ur Q its also an on-hit effect ability too. get red buff, burn them with ur Q or get iceborn and Q and simply it will just, do that thing
