Something I don't understand: Katarina's update

Victurn Up··1 votes·790 views

Just one thing is bugging me: So when you pick a dagger, you deal AOE damages similar to the live W spell. How are you supposed to properly wave clear when your Q's dagger falls to a random spot?

Aside from this point, I'm very excited about this update.

Q landing point isnt random at all it drops a fixed distance behind the first target it hits 350 units i think

I tried to draw this simple schema. So you throw the dagger at target (1), it bounces two times, and drops at the exact opposite of your position ? https://s13.postimg.org/kxv4v9vfb/image.png

her reworked w throws a dagger straight up. use that in combination with your q to wave clear

It'd be wiser to save W for a return point. But yeah.

You can use your Q to still bounce daggers for damage, as well as count around the fact it will only bounce 3 times (iirc) now.

Q isn't entirely random either if I recall, it always falls directly behind the 1st target, a set distance away (depending on how many enemies it stuck)

Actually it will always fall the same distance I believe. This is to not punish you for getting multiple hits with it

Believe it or not, when played properly both laners actually try to farm, so last hitting with auto attacks isn't unheard of.

Unfortunately in lower elo everyone just wants to fight all game long leading to both laners being super underfarmed.

its not random its 350 units behind the direction you throw at your target

The spin always happens around you so shunpo behind dagger, right click for wave clear then shunpo elsewhere?
