Seriously Riot, fix your god damn hitboxes

Don't forget Lux, Morgana, Jhin, Jinx, Nautilus, and Thresh.

Do I seriously have to permaban Blitzcrank because the hitboxes are fucked up?

While I agree with you that Blitz's Q hitbox is complete bullshit... There's hitboxes that are a LOT worse than Blitz.

R. R. Q. W. E. Q. Q. Q. E.

It's fun being outplayed by a hitbox isn't it?

/s

That’s how line skillshots work. It’s called “lollypopping”, and it’s to not make it as difficult to hit line skillshots in the game plain.

At the edge of the skillshot, it bulges out into a circle and finds a target to lock on to.

Blitzcrank's hook is not anything special. Every skillshot is randomly visually incorrect. It's been this way for a very long time if not since the beginning. Maybe one day they will fix it.

It doesn't have anything to do with the hitboxes. I would argue Morgana and Thresh and such are more blatant problem champs to deal with because their abilities are slower and therefore it's even more irritating when their skills don't go the angle they are pretending to. Every champ's skillshots can visually hit a target but actually miss them, just as they can visually miss a target but still hit them. I'm not sure how often it happens in an average game but I know it happens more often at certain angle ranges.

The skillshots definitely go to where they are targeted. The biggest issue I see with players who would ever claim otherwise with their own projectiles are those that would intentionally or accidentally click on a moving target instead of on the ground.

Why do you think people hate Zoe so much? Visually inaccurate skillshots. I'm not joking. It's not her kit that's frustrating, it's the randomness/inconsistency in visual display inaccuracy.

TL;DR it's not a champion-specific problem. It happens to everyone. It's only frustrating for the opponents of the visually inaccurate abilities, but everyone sees the visual inaccuracy when it happens. It doesn't happen every time, but it happens every game for sure, so that Riot should be trying to fix it by now.

Funny how they gave the crispest hit box in the game to the point where being half in the box isnt enough to take damage.

Used to be even worse. Remember the nid spears? those things wouldn't just miss you'd, they'd go halfway past your champ before suddenly just hitting for no reason.

Few hitbox issues, when thresh somehow always hits you with the q even if you flash sometimes. and, when kai'sa's w phases through dragons sometimes.... it happened to me when playing her, it went through the elder dragon and stole my teammate's penta ._.

If you just make the animation larger so that it really feels like you got hit by the skillshot there isn't going to be much difference. Because when you can visually see that blitzcranks hand is on your champion it's already too late anyways

But if you make the hitbox smaller to match the visual animation that would be a HUGE nerf. You'd utterly destroy the champion. Blitzcrank is not op, his winrate is just slightly above 50%. If his pull hitbox is made significantly smaller his winrate would drop below way below ryze, because his pull is everything his kit revolves arround.

So yes you have to ban blitz every game if you are not good enough to dodge his pulls often enough. Cause riot isn't going to nerf a champion into an unplayable state for no reason

I do agree that jhin'w and lux ult can have a very strange hitbox that doesn't match up with the visual indicator if fired from a certain angle. And riot should definetly fix this. But other than that, no need to do anything.

Anyone who thinks it isn't a problem is lying to themselves.

The problem is most likely that the code has to be bitmap based, even at a HD scale. If even one pixel overlaps it hits.

Also, don't forget there's a bit of a lag time in deciding targeting due to the nature of the game and the players not necessarily being equidistant from each other. In othet words: If a Morgana q is fired at 10:01:04.999 and is coded to have a travel time of 1 unit per sec, and your champ is 3 units away, even if you move during that time, if 3 secs later you were SUPPOSED to be hit according to the coding, you get hit. The game has to go off of coded response rather than video, while the players are the opposite. Unless you happen to be Faker and can pull off some Matrix-level BSery.

While I agree, Riot wants his hit box screwed up like it is. They've said it in the past to show the fact that it's an arm he fires from the side of him despite the actual visual tells. Indie company Riot strikes again!

Hitboxes are fine. The only time you really see an issue is with vertical height, which has nothing to do with hitboxes.

Older thread, but I googled this subject after watching TSM vs TL and dont feel like making a new post lol... IF this isnt a clear example of this garbage hit box, idk what is. Corejj getting hosed by this system last weekend.

I've been hit my melee and killed by them after Ive landed far, far away with 2xW on leblanc or just Flash. Like, flee from a fight -> flash -> land and walk for half a second -> die to Tryndamere spinning around 100 yards away
