Rammus Q math

so i put all the values of speed rammus gets while Q'ing onto a graph. i still cannot figure out how exactly the speedup works. I do not know if it is multiplicative or not (multiplies ALL flat and percentage speed boosts, not just flat). I DO know that there are 28 mini-speedups you get (for a total of 29 vaules - 28 speedups + the starting move speed).

I also included the values of speed rammus gets under the influence of the starting homeguard. however, as i stated in the graph, i do not know if the starting homeguard itself is multiplicative or not.

if i could get a rioter to confirm or deny any math on rammus's Q, that'd be cool thanks

PS - i think the wiki is wrong about the MS bonus on rammus's Q - it does not speed up once per second, it speeds up 4 times per second.

The important thing to note here, is that it makes you go faster. The acceleration (slope) seems to be about the same across all the options, so I would guess it's a constant speed increase - as in, each second (or game tick) you speed up by the same amount

Keep in mind, there is the soft cap on move speed, so things around 500 move speed are kinda weird.

It seems a lot of things in the game tick 4 times a second for a smooth application of whatever is being applied. It would of course make sense then if Rammus's q lasts for 7 seconds and increases by 20% every second that means it's increasing by 5% every 0.25 seconds so that there isn't this sudden increase in speed every second. Wiki is probably accurate

You haven't given us exact numbers, but seeing as you should definitely have them, can't you do the math to figure it out?

You just go, okay if it's multiplicative like this, it works out to be that, and then check the graph, no? The boost seems extremely consistent, minus the small hump near the first third of the bottom group, which seems to be due to the movespeed softcap, I would think.

It's probably one of those things where it shows total, while it doesn't say the intervals that it actually does stuff. I'm pretty sure like some DoT skills say something like "Does x dmg per second", but does actually does y dmg every 0.5 seconds to deal a total of x dmg
