Why don't I see more MF's with Kleptomancy?

She is actually really good at triggering it, as the second hit of her Q also applies onhit-effects. She can just Q a minion, and when it bounces to a champ she triggers Klepto.

Q to a minion counts as the hit of Klepto as well. So it'd get wasted, because it gives nothing if you hit a minion before a champion.

You'd need to Q a champion every time, which means you lose out on damage in lane, which is when Klepto is strongest.

Well then I hit a bug or something last game, because I did indeed trigger Klepto when I Q'd a minion which then bounced to a champ

No that's working as intended. Idk what that guy is smoking.

So it should indeed trigger Klepto when my Q bounces to a champ?

I believe it should. However it depends on how it's coded. If double up counts as two separate attacks or not. That being said I don't think that, even if it does work this way, klepto is a good time for mf.

You don't pick MF to scale. You pick her because you want an early game bully that is pretty good in the teamfight part of the game. The other keystones are just a better fit for her

I tested it using Double up with the first shot hitting a minion, then bouncing to a target dummy.

I could not get it to proc in this way, though it still consumed the buff. I think whats happening is Double up is triggering the buff on cast, then eating it as the first shot hits.

The only way I could trigger the klepto proc was either by by using Q on the target dummy directly or popping the buff separately with something like strut and then auto attacking
