Hey I was curious about if using Thunderlord's on would be op or not? Mainly curious if when he sets enemy champs ablaze, would the 3 seconds of dot proc Thunderlords each spell? (assuming enough time has past on the TL CD)

Additionally, Before this new season, I noticed that using on was hit or miss. On some occasions, setting an enemy champ ablaze would use all 3 stacks on the per second the target burned; However, other times, it wouldn't steal the gold at all or else would only count for one tic. This is when I have had all 3 stacks waiting to be cast. Has anyone else had this issue or does know if the new season has fixed the bug?

Brand's Blaze will trigger Both Thunderlord's and All stacks of the Spellthief's line. However, if you set multiple people ablaze, it get's wonky and picks targets at random to trigger the gold bonus damage or thunderlords.

Positive on the thunderlords? Also did they fix the spellthief stacks for brand? cause it used to not always go off for me.

Brand's Passive should proc thunderlord's, because it procs DFT, and Spell vamp, and Rylai's and Liandry's.

Spellvamp counts as a spell/attack apart from the spell in the first place? and the cc from rylais?

Here's the thing, Because of how certain traits are coded, Some things that deal magic damage no longer trigger spell vamp.

Liandry's and DFT are not considered spell effects, and thus do not proc Spellvamp. If they were considered spell effects, they'd end up triggering themselves and stay on a person infinitely. This of course is unacceptable.
