Not a complaint, but I do think we should quit rewarding champions that miss abilities

With huge AoE autos and abilities. The 2 that come to mind are Sylas and Zoe. I am posting a clip, and in it, I actually have item and gold advantage. I dodge all of Sylas' abilities but he still chunks me to 25% hp with empowered autos. I hate that I feel like I outplay him and he still gets to kick the shit out of me.

Side Note on another issue: in this clip, I try to walk to bot side of the lane and minion block decides to walk me thru the front of the minion line :(

Well, no, actually he only brought you down to half HP from his passive. A chunk of the damage was his W.

That said, it's hilarious you're complaining that champions shouldn't get rewarded when they miss abilities as a champion whose damage comes from 2 targeted abilities (one of which has an AoE option) and a skillshot with three projectiles that can't be missed if you land one of the targeted abilities.

All the clip shows is why you shouldn't blue card a turret when the enemy is on their way back and you have no minion wave.

If he landed his skill shots the mobile ap duelist would have been rewarded with a kill. Since he missed them, the squishy mage without flash was able to walk away. Nothing about him missing is being rewarded here.

That thinking led to the abomination that is reworked Seju.

These Champions are not "rewarded" for missing abilities. Their passive gives them an empowered basic attack when they use an ability. With your argument, you might as well get rid of all of the Spellblade items. They do the same thing.

The only champions rewarded for a miss are Sejuani R, Rumble R, Fizz R, and Zoe E that I can immediately think of. They all have its highest reward for hitting but they change the battlefield if they miss. You mentioned Zoe but didn't talk about her at all and instead went on a tieraid about a game you lost vs Sylas. He's a mostly targeted champion and he relies on E to finish people. He gets no reward for missing abilities unless he happens to steal certain ults.
