Death's Dance

> UNIQUE: Instantly heal for 15% of all physical damage dealt. > Area of effect physical damage only heals 5% for every unit affected.

When you turn on the damage tickers, "physical" damage is a red number, "magic" damage is purple, & "critical" damage is orange?

Trying to figure out my champion. If this item only applies to red & orange numbers then I cant use it. If that's the case Rito needs to stop limiting my champs item selection..

.... what?

Leopards Ghost1 votes

death's dance is custom-made for katarina but all her abilities are classified as "magic" (ie: they strike as purple damage tickers, not red, & aren't eligible for crits) which means Death's Dance it's absolutely useless to the Master of Blades.

i bought the champ because i liked the lore. if you can't keep a consistent backstory going the game just devolves into a murderparty oh wait thats what the trolls want.

your move Rito.

death's dance is custom-made for katarina

Umm... evidence ?

Do you even know what the words "custom-made for" mean? surely you jest...?

do you know what the phrase "under lock & key" means?

"Never question my loyalty. You will never know what I endure for it." ― Katarina

"The three deadliest blademasters in all of Valoran are bound to the house of Du Couteau: my father, myself, and Talon. Challenge us, if you dare." ― Katarina Du Couteau

I also purchased Talon (a champ i cant use); because i like the backstory.

The person's point was, the item was made for physical damage dealers, both in spells and autoattacks. Katrina does next to none. So if it was indeed custom made for her, why would it be for physical, not magic?

Long story straight, it was not made for her, and theme similarities have nothing to do with in game mechanics. And you are by no means stopped from buying it. It will not help you at all, but you are not stopped from it either.

By the way, it looks more like Tryndamere's sword than Katrina's blades, which makes sense as his ult lets him dance on the brink of death, while he all of his skills do, and scale off of, ad. While Katrina's skills scale off of ap, and do magic damage.

Which does the Death's Dance icon look like a recolored version of?http://grabilla.com/06509-67d5d9b1-55c2-4fbc-8316-557f6caf6ed3.png

Tryndamere's Sword? http://grabilla.com/06509-be864771-e6a5-44d0-8105-1f9f631f4432.png

Or Katrina's Blades? http://grabilla.com/06509-9e5f9df4-9591-4a95-9ae9-2ebdaa534369.png

To me Tryndamere's Sword looks a lot closer, what with Katrina's blades not having any spikes on them at all and straight handles, while Tryndamere's Sword does have spikes, and a weird spiky handle.

item 3146 has everything you'd want for kat. if you really want to go down the ad path. plus she has no cc in her kit so the active helps her a lot. omni works on all the damage.

the active is useful. i just pointed at the elephant. you should look at it.

The Last Ballad2 votes

What elephant? The fact that an ad item holds no help for an APC, whose entire kit scales off of ap only, and does nothing but magic damage? Thank you General Obvious. I doubt anyone would of noticed that without you.

The Omnivore passive of the Hextech Gunblade does exactly what you want Death's Dance to do, but without the drawback of not only doing nothing for your damage, but also causing you to die if you manage to escape with a slight bit of health.(due to the "15% of damage taken is instead dealt over 3 seconds")

ghost > flash > shunpo > literally melting your backline.

see, i just broke your meta. which i've been doing since day1. now if you would kindly free our champions, allow cass to stoneface people point blank, & apparently there's been some complaints about spellvamp being limited (not my area of expertise).

your move Riot. who do you want playing on your servers.

The Last Ballad1 votes

I fail to see your point in all of this rambling. Do you mind limiting yourself to just one point or _ a group of related points_, instead of whatever this has to do with Katrina and the lack of synergy between death's dance and her magic damage skills?
