It's been almost 10 years Riot, fix skillshot hitboxes

Śhunpo··6 votes·1,591 views

How long do we have to wait to have some actual fairness with skillshots?

The worst offenders include: -LUX Q -LUX R -Veigar E -Irelia E -Anivia Q -Vel'koz W -Kennen Q -Brand Q -Brand W -Ahri Q -MORGANA Q -Katarina dagger (since I know it can be dumb sometimes) -Fizz R -Kha'zix W -THRESH Q -Taric E -Bard Q

Those in all caps are THE worst of the bunch.

But yeah, it's been almost 10 years, why haven't they been fixed? At the very least adjust their visual indicators so we know how BS their hitboxes are. Seriously, Morgana's Q somehow got WORSE in terms of hitbox consistency after her VGU. In the case of Lux her Q just doesn't match up at all (never has), and with her VFX changing skins it just gets more obnoxious, and then she has her ult which we ALL know just doesn't work properly. Finally, we have Thresh Q....yeeeeah, this is all sorts of broken, sometimes it doesn't hit the intended target at all and jumps to anything within a 10 mile radius, other times it perfectly "curves" through minions and hits a target who has sidestepped; yeah, fix this ability.

10 years Riot, that's been plenty of time to fix skillshot hitboxes. Thank you.

If any of you have another skillshot to add to that list feel free to say so.

Replay not being super accurate, latency/lag, and camera angle being altered in replay. Next question.

You've actually gotta be kidding me lmao. If anything replays CORRECT skillshot visual hitboxes since it's a 0 ping environment. Also you can't alter the camera angle :)

Thats literally not true. Replays do not auto correct what happened, things go off all the time, especially if you fast forward or rewind, due to how they made the replay system itself.

They do. The most notable occasion was when Elise threw an E to the side of her and it hit in FRONT of her in-game, only to then correct itself in the replay.

Cool, it also works the other way around. Replays just load the assets and plays the game as it shows, however weird things can occur and be off due to how its designed, and will try to force correct as a result.

I've never seen that happen, this just sounds like a lie.

How can anyone downvote this?

it is actually a damn shame that a popular game like this has an absolutely garbage hitbox system in 2019.

I don't actually know why people are downvoting this post. Hitbox detection in general is shoddy, which is why you see so many people complain about creepblock.

I guess everyone who downvoted this post plays mages/supports? I don't know to be completely honest.
