Can we give other melee champions with an AA reset the Renekton 5.9 treatment?

FalconPawwwwnch··42 votes·3,445 views

And by that I mean giving their AA reset like 50 more range just to clean up animations and consistency issues.

I can't tell you the number of times that I'm playing Jax/Nasus/Poppy/Darius/Trundle/Garen/etc that when I'm fighting a champion and try to utilize the autoattack reset, instead of hitting them I just chase them for 3 seconds with the skill buff still on me looking like an idiot.

Not all champions have this problem, some have tools to get by this: Mordekaiser's Q has 75 more range Renekton's W now has 50 more range Garen's Q gives him an MS buff so he can catchup despite same AA range etc

I don't see how making this change would break any of the above champions, it'd just make them a lot smoother to play optimally, since right now a lot of times they're punished for using their skills correctly to reset their AA

Edit: I forgot about Nasus's ultimate giving him bonus AA range, thanks for reminding me.

Leona just got a whole lot scarier

EDIT: What would that animation be like? She should Captain America her shield, lmao

?? Leona does get extra range on her Q. Pretty sure it's smaller than most, but I'm pretty sure she gets like 20-30 extra range.

MrBuffington4 votes

Yep, 30 extra range; isn't listed on the tool tip but the Wiki has it. So, slightly scarier, I guess :3

wtf no, what's the point of the E nerf on the PBE then ?

Leona has one of the best auto attack resets currently.

They wouldn't touch her.

That's why it'd be scary if they did, lol

Please.

Yorick's Q has a range of 175, compared to his normal range of 125.

Oh. Huh. Wonder why I still have trouble getting it off with the reset, then.

I'm with you. I play Trundle and his feels fine, Yorick's feels terrible.

Mordekaiser's Q is also one of the longest cast time auto attack enhancements I've ever seen, possibly taking LONGER than his actual auto attack. Yes, he's got more range on it, but I hesitate to even call it an auto attack reset when it takes so LONG to cast.

Garen's Q has a leap towards the target if you are within 25-50 range iirc Darius gets like 20 range on his W Vi gets extended range for her E

Nasus doesn't need the extended range because of his W and R, but the rest on your list would be fine with it.

Ah yes I forgot about the bonus ult range. Thanks for the reminder

Trundle's Q already has a better version of this. Has a mini-dash on it.

Edit: I was wrong, no mini-dash, just an AA range increase.

Anonagon2 votes

No it doesn't. I'm pretty sure it has a little extra range, but it has no dash whatsoever

Dryditch1 votes

The extra range is so minimal it's laughable. I think he gets an extra 10 range or something.

EDIT: Just checked... no range increase, whatsoever. It's just that he bites, instead of swinging the club, so he "lunges" forward.

RamBamThankUMaam1 votes

The lunge moves his character model slightly forward and gives the auto increased range. It isn't listed in the stat block but you can see it in action by spending 90 seconds in a custom game.

Dryditch1 votes

I play Trundle a ton, but I have never seen him extend auto range.

Also, there's no mention of it in the wiki, which is community moderated and up to date with almost ALL information.

I'd say Fiora needs this but with her 2 dashes she really doesn't for her AA reset. Q+Auto+E+Q+Auto again.

TBH, Darius does have a +20 range (145 when activated) when he does use his W. Still needs more though. (for more info, you can click C in game and activate W on Darius and you will see that his aa range is increased)

TL;DR Darius W does have a bit more range but not enuf Regular AA (125) W activated (145)
