The new patch states "Instances of Deathfire Touch are no longer overwritten by new instances that would expire sooner". What does this mean? Does deathfire touch now stack? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Quepha2 votesassume karthus takes deathfire touch karthus lands a Q (single target), applies deathfire touch for 4 seconds karthus deals damage with his E, applies deathfire touch for 2 seconds because E damaged more recently, the 2 second dft is applied and overwrites the 4 second.
instead, now the Q's dot will stay on provided it has more than 2 seconds remaining on its duration.
Darkdemon6531 votesDeathfire Touch has three different potential durations. It can last for 4, 2, or 1 second. So if a 4-second duration DFT has 2 seconds left on it, it will not be overwritten by a 1-second duration DFT.
In most cases it will be good. What it should check for is how much damage will be dealt; it's very possible for a 1-second DFT to deal more damage than a 2-second DFT.
