Why Can people See through J4 ulti?

Ahristocats··15 votes·1,109 views

This is a wall, not only it blocks every visible rays, but this fact also completly weaken the champ.

J4 ulti is useless now due to mobility creeps, even MonkeyKing can get through, my concern is why can people like MasterYi get out of it because they pressed Q on minions?

At first i had no idea what the hell you were trying to say, but after hours of code breaking and reading the comments, i realized that you where asking for J4's ult to limit vision for champions within it to only the interior of the ult.

My thoughts on that are.

that would be broken af, Ahri is killing someone, then j4 ulti, ahri can no llonger see where the target is and can't land her skillshot

In response, you do realize that nocturnes ult basically is worse seeing as its global, removes ally vision, and reduces your vision. Graves W does this to any champion within the smoke. Quinns Q does this to enemy champions she hits. Its an established game mechanic already, just underutilized. Also your example is bad because as J4 ulting a Ahri with her ult up for any reason other then an execute is a waste. Hell, she can dash out of your ult, back into it, and out of it again.

Nocturne's ult doesn't reduce ally vision, or vision for yourself.

LordForrest1 votes

It removes ally vision and reduces your vision radius for the entire enemy team. i.e. you can only see what around your champion specifically and it is reduced compared to normal.

yea, sounds a good idea,

Useless ult? It's a dash that does quite a large amount of damage and can be used to force spells, split teams in half, isolate a carry, escape, clump their team for your team's aoe, peel for your teammates, and of course ensure an enemy can't escape.

It's extremely versatile and far from useless.

isolate a carry? not only they have mobility, but they also have Thresh TahmKench Braum to save them, j4 due to a lot of new champs since 2011 had been weakened really hard, Bard can just ulti and wait until your ulti finishes.

and with all the mobility, peeling for your teammates, blocking an enemy is tought now, but if you add this change, peeling for your mate will be done, because they can't see where your mate went and some can't escape the wall because they need to see a target to escape

how does braum save them from J4 ult?

jump into them--->ulti to cc j4-->wall --->the adc is safe from projectiles which is 90% of league damage

That's different from Tahm or thresh who directly pulls them out of the wall.

but it still invalide j4 ulti which should isolate a target, and since j4 blocked his team, nobody can get past braum

The Bearded Bard1 votes

Yes, J4's ult was 'invalidated' by another champion's ENTIRE KIT. You used your ult, W, and E to stop his ult, and it wasn't even effective considering they're still trapped, J4 has no projectiles, and you didn't stop the damage from J4's ult.

This just in: Malzahar 's ult is useless because GP can use his W to get out of it and everyone else can use their teammate's CC.

If you're that worried about people using mobility to get out of it, wait until they waste their mobility spell, then use your ult.

yes, but malz is only countered by few, like gp/olaf/ali, j4 is countered by 80 champs, waste mobility spell? rofl riven has 4, lee has 2, and don't forget flash

The Bearded Bard1 votes

He is absolutely not countered by 80 champs. Just because they can use a spell to get out of his ult, doesn't mean he's countered by them. By that logic, Ziggs is countered by every single one of those champs as well.

Ahri LeeSin Fiora Vayne Poppy Illaoi Kalista Alistar Those champions counter J4. The rest either straight up don't, or break even.

Vayne Riven j4 can't do shit about those two, and it's just some example, TahmKench also makes j4 wortheless because he stays close to his adc if he get knowed up/ ultied he eats him and wait for the ulti to finish

Your title is confusing, The mechanic that prevents people to use dashes through a created unit such as with Azir's ultimate did not exist at the time of Jarven's creation. Should he get a rework at least on a juggernaut scale this might be changed. I personally think this gives him a lot of counter play . However it should not be used on someone who can get out of it in the first place unless they are low hp such as anyone with a dash, blink etc.

op isn't asking for j4 to have azir ultimate, but to limit the vision of the units inside j4 ulti. This would prevent some champs to escape his ulti Talon MasterYi Pantheon and it would give him some utility

Well, that's kinda what the OP was saying - more and more champions have mobility, and J4 becomes less and less useful. If you're J4 and you ult Lucian, for example, Lucian only has to burn a low cooldown ability to escape your massive cooldown ult.

While I agree that champions having dashes adds counterplay, I contend that too many champions are able to counter J4 by simply existing. I do agree that the ult should give Nearsight, meaning champions like Yi and Talon can't just target someone outside the cataclysm to get away easily. They should have to burn a mobility spell or flash, IMO.

Yes i like this idea even tho i dont play Jarvan myself i think this is a very easy solution to ''fix'' the ultimate.

It's actually not a wall. The outer perimeter "falls away" leaving what looks like lava filled crevices around the perimeter of the circle. There are no walls, sorry to inform you of this.

wall: definition: a vertical construction made of stone, brick, wood, etc., with a length and height much greater than its thickness, used to enclose, divide, or support .

_Cataclysm is a single target dash that creates an impassable wall around Jarvan when he lands. _

Just going to leave this here.

because everyone on a team shares vision unless you have been using j4's ult to NOT trap enemies inside of it.

Z Statistic1 votes

not sure how I feel about this. It might lead to ridiculous shit until it's removed or nerfed significantly like Graves' W.
