Something looks wrong there. If the damage in the beginning (210+217) is correct, then the ability should hit for 250% of that when it crits with Infinity Edge, for 1067.5 damage. I'm a bit puzzled as to where the higher numbers are coming from. Anyone have any ideas?

Different amounts of armour/armour pen at different times (e.g. due to level differences)? Didn't look too closely since it's easy to get the wrong idea when an adc is the same level or even several levels up on solo laners.

That would do it, but armor only REDUCES damage (i.e. different amounts of armor above 0 won't INCREASE expected damage under any circumstances), and those builds don't seem to have enough ArPen to make for that large an increase. Will have to test it myself, probably, since I'm not sure what's going on here. :)

Also, who knows what items/stats they had at the time they showed that (210+217) figure. They're getting Ad from level ups (maybe scaling runes/lethality), and their build is changing from scene to scene with more/less AD from items and more/less lethality. (Not to mention enemy builds, some of which may have had some amount of armour in them, or they may have changed to all tear builds from the looks of how it went, or various other possibilities).

my guess is instead of taking of doing 210+217=(427X250%)=1067 its doing something along the lines of 210+217+(250%X417)=1494 witch would put it at 1494 then add mastereys that up dmg delt and so on and it would be around 1500+
