Death Recap Needs a Rework

I've played the game for over 5 years now, and have loved playing League, but one thing that has always REALLY bothered me is the Death Recap, it hasn't been touched in those 5 years of playing, and quite frankly, I'm tired of dying and only being able to calculate 800 damage of my 2800 health as a Cho'Gath, or not knowing EXACTLY how I died/what dealt the final blow (flashed away after all animations had gone off and died quite literally out of nowhere, believe it was the turret, but it was a solid second afterward). What I would love to have happen is that Riot could update and improve their Death Recap (even having it optional in the menu if many people like the incomplete version) to show all the damage received and to know exactly what killed you and how, I may be a stickler for details, but I feel it'll help me play the game better knowing what to build against (dealing the most damage) and what abilities and damage could have been avoided.

I agree, Deathcap needs some buffs.

I think it has to do something with the base coding in the game as related to death recap. I'm not sure what they exactly said but I think they would have to redo everything from the ground up with how spells are tracked. Meaning re code the tracking for each individual spell/damage source to display correctly. I've never had much of an issue with it as it almost always seems to give me pretty accurate data but I think there is some wonky base coding that is causing some issues. Depends how it was originally coded. May be a very big project.

Coding can be a very big headache when trying to fix some issues (understatement of the year).

Glad i'm not the only one, and @ Talinis, if so, that'd be rough, and if I had that confirmed it'd give me peace of conscience that it may never happen, but at least I'd know why :) and if ya'll could visit my Reddit post to see if it gets traction there too :) https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/74tt5m/death_recap_in_need_of_a_rework/
