I agree that having a point-click ability is bad design: you basically click the enemy and pray it hits, compared to similar types of ults (Warwick, Sion), where you can aim yourself and mitigate the fact that it can miss.
oh its not just pure targeted?
well that ability is literally useless. for shame. the champion rework looked so good on paper.
because it has channel time no one is going to stand still while she is ulting.
hell the jayce didnt even flash or get lantern'd out or anything. what a joke.
Wait a minute...so a champion that had her ultimate completely reworked to be a point-and-click situational finishing move can be dodged completely beyond the user's control to avoid? Normally I would say wait until allies CC, but by the time Rek'Sai takes to the air, the CC will have worn off. This doesn't seem right.
For the same reason WW ult can miss. Counterplay. It does have high execute damage so that's the tradoff.
The utility of it, being a gap closer should be it's own reward however Rek Sai's CC rely's on her being underground and then popping up under them. This ult doesn't help that, the ult feels inconsistent with the rest of her kit as it is, doesn't really set up anything, it can fail as a damage dealer. I vote for if the ult misses that rek sai lands underground and has her borrow ability refreshed so it can at least be used to travel distances or get to targets. Though personally it shouldn't miss it does have a huge scaling but given the nature of the champion building up to it it's is on risk the ult should be the reward at least.
Usually Riot double nerfs things but...
Reduced Range from global range Can only be used if target was damaged prior to Can miss target
A triple nerf
Thats some next level shit right there.
Thats like asking why can lucian q miss. It just can if done right dont bitch
Is this a bug? This can't be what they intended.
The real reason as to why it can miss is because everyone will cry and complain about him being to much like a assassin with no counter play yet were blind to how weak assassins are right now.
To those claiming it is a bug, I'm afraid to say that I don't think it is. While on a much smaller scale, and more difficult to recreate, Fizz's Q can miss as well if the champ moves/teleports fast enough.
