Shouldn't Kha'zix be able to jump over caitlyn traps or teemo shrooms?

League of Legends doesn't have a Z-Axis. Jumps are effectively just dashes. Riot could code in unique interactions like Tristana and Kha'Zix jumping over ground-based things, but that would require work and listening to the playerbase.

Despite the popularity and now age of the game, it's still a pile of absolute fucking garbage in regards to the code. Jumps are basically just dashes with a fancy animation. There's no Z-Axis. It's really confusing to new players to play say Trist and jump over a Cait trap only to get dropped to the ground.

theres no difference between a "jump" and a "dash" mechanically. theyre coded the same.

Its the same reason that aatrox can be snared while in the air...

There are so many things that don't make sense, like Thresh hooking a mid-air Kha'zix

Jumping over a Zigg's minefiled is one of the more spectacular things you can do.

As for making sense - there are plenty of things in LoL that force logic to take a back-seat to gameplay (Xerath can bleed, pretty much every item recipe in the game, Lee Sin players aren't stuck with a black screen)

This is one such case.

Granting momentary immunity to everything that isn't point-click is a pretty massive add-on for a skill to have. That's not a QoL thing you can just tack on to make the skill feel better to use, it's a massive buff to how the skill works.

Change jumps to bypass skillshots and traps, and you turn a large number of champions into Fizz. With better gap-closing range. This is not something that should happen.

Buzzword and a joke. Don't look too much into it.
