I've seen that before and that downright baffled me.

The death recap would be pretty useful if it was not so jank.

Yesterday I died from 146 true damage from Alpha Strike. Alpha doesn't do true damage. There was not a yi in that game.

I expect it's somthing wrong deep in the code. I don't think this is an easy fix. otherwise they would have fixed it already.

Regardless of the difficulty in fixing the issue, it's a necessary one. Being able to know exactly how you died, and why, is key to developing a counter-strategy.

SpecterVonBarenMar 13, 20182 votes

The problem is that in most cases it's obvious why you died. Just as with reworks, Riot goes for the most glaring problems with the game first before moving on to smaller targets, the map change, the new client, etc.

MarshbouyMar 13, 20181 votes

I can consistently figure out what I died from by just paying attention to what is happening on screen.

OverpoweredSoapMar 13, 20185 votes

Yeah my favorite is dying to the 65 damage from Janna's Monsoon.

HeimerLmaoMar 13, 201810 votes

I love dying to the true damage the enemy summoner name deals.

The Stabby TabbyMar 13, 20184 votes

My favorite was when I took damage from Dragon's statik shiv.

Cowgirl EdMar 13, 20185 votes

the death recap is very useful. just not in league, because it's bugged like shit

SpecterVonBarenMar 13, 20183 votes

Noooooooooooooooo! It's the only meme Riot has failed to slay after all these years! Let it live on forever!

wolviusMar 13, 20183 votes

Just gotta love that 300/400 "bad passive" true damage from minions

Do you have a screenshot to show? You made it sound like you have a glitched recap but without a SS I have no idea.

Its not exactly a rare occurrence. The Death Recap regularly shows nonsense like that. Its been a known issue since forever.

I never really check it since I figure that my dieing means I either overextended or didn’t ward properly, lol.

i had always imagined that people would stop saying shit like this after the games been out for 8 years.

Maybe they should have fixed it by the 8-year mark.

Yes, I too die just from where my character is and not because of the damage being dealt to me. Who cares what form of damage I'm dying from so I can build around it. As long as I know where my character is and where my enemies are I should be fine. /s

Ok sure but whyMar 13, 20181 votes

Maybe learning whether you took more Magic or Physical damage in a fight can help you decide which resistances you need to buy

Ashen RiderMar 13, 20182 votes

I think the only thing I'd like to know from death recap is what percentage of the damage I took was physical vs magical, and what exactly it was that finished me off.

ŚhunpoMar 13, 20182 votes

Apparently I was killed by "game_display_239" when a Warwick killed me with Q.

Z3SleeperMar 13, 20181 votes

I like how Arena of Valor has absolutely perfect death recaps and it's a mobile game.

PoskeMar 13, 20181 votes

Bassicly there was a time when you werent taking damage at all perhaps because of shields..

Essentially you didnt have full hp that fight you had ~269 health in your second fight within a teamfight

space newtMar 13, 20181 votes

Yeah it's just a death recap. Not the full a damage recap of your last life. It only recaps the damage from your the last fight that killed you. I agree with you though, I wish I could see the damage I was taking throughout my whole life.
