Ahri's Q back doesn't count for the Electrocute Rune.

I wanted to know if it was intended or not, because I think it's a shame it's withdrawn :( Before with Thunderlord we just needed to do Q + AA to do it proke

That was the point of the change, you need 3 unique attacks now, not just Lux E + Auto or Kassadin R + W.

But Lux E -> Auto IS three unique attacks.

E Auto Passive

Those are three entirely different sources of damage and this is clearly the case of the passive not simply being counter as an auto, as her ulti ALSO detonates the mark. I haven't played against a Lux lately to have double checked a death recap page, but I can almost guarantee that Illumination counts as its own damage source on the recap. Meaning that it is a unique source of damage; and as such E -> Auto -> Passive should by all rights trigger Electrocute.

By the same notion, Ahri's Q should technically do the same seeing as the first tick is magic damage and the second is True. Although there is more of a case that can be made for her Q not counting towards two stacks to detonate Electrocute as, even though the damage types are different, it's still coming from Orb of Deception. Whereas that isn't the case with Lux; the auto triggers the passive, but the passive is a different source of damage entirely.

Its from 3 unique damage sources, which is why it procced Thunderlords. But not 3 unique attacks, its just E + an auto attack.

But the passive counts as its own ability. So it should proc Electrocute.

It's not a seperate ability it's literally just on hit magic damage. Riot already said that Lux passive interacting with TLD was not what they wanted for the game and they intended to change it.

It's like this with every champion now. Taliyah Q only counts as 1 attack/effect, LeBlanc E only counts as 1 to.

It's still a shame, considering that Q has two different types of damage :/ I guess it was meant to be.
