So...the buffed Randuin's crit reduction isn't unique yet. Yasuo haters rejoyce

WoonStruck··39 votes·2,987 views

Who else is ready for item 3143 item 3143 item 3143 item 3143 item 3143 item 3047 for a grand total of 95% auto attack damage reduction against Yasuo w/o pen items/R active.

Without any armor at all its still 71% damage reduction.

And don't forget, that crit reduction applies to many mages as well, unless it was a bug that was fixed recently.

Kind of like Mundo who decided to build five Warmogs

Anidan8 votes

Man, I remember the Classic Mundo Troll build was 5 Warmogs + Atma's. That's how you show spite on Mundo, right there. You clearly don't value their time, or their livelihood so you're going to force them go through about 6000-7000 HP (old Warmog's with a max of 1300 or so HP) + your regen, while you beat the crap out of them with your auto-attacks and cleavers. It was a work of art.

100% crit reduction.

Does that mean Yas's autos will deal 0 damage?

Civafu8 votes

If so, it would mean 6 randuins would be -120% damage taken from crits.

Imagine yasuo's crits healing you

I'm sure its multiplicative stacking, ie. 20%, 16%, 12.8%, 10.24%, 8.192% damage reduction each, for a total of 67.232% reduction of critical strike damage, and then another 2.73% damage reduction from Tabi's if it is a n auto attack for 69.96% reduced damage on critical auto attacks before mitigation.

The crit reduction passive right now isnt unique either but you still dont see people doing that. Ive built two randiuns in a single game only once but thats because i was still learning a bad matchup against tryndamere and wanted a bit more than armor. But that was once.

On live it's 10%, not 20%.

There's a huge difference.

So you instantly die to the enemy mage, and the Yasuo that you devoted your build to countering goes on to slaughter your team.

So you instantly die to the enemy mage, and the Yasuo that you devoted your build to countering goes on to slaughter your team.

In almost every team the only AP damage source is the midlaner or some tank (nautilus) that doesn't even do that much damage, or they're full AD with an assassin mid.

and I doubt they'll get through 2500+ base health alone

What about bot-lane mages?

Then your squishies rejoice because they evidently aren't being targeted by the enemy champions that likely have the most burst on them.

Yasuo primarily goes mid. So unless there's a Mage top, you're good.

Sraeg20131 votes

The higher the rank, the higher is his top lane pick rate.

In Gold it's ~50% mid and ~46% top, Plat+ top lane wins.

What do you mean crit for mages?

Muzét14 votes

Some skills as mages do more dmg if certain conditions are met : Anivia's E on chilled target make it deal double dmg and it counts as a crit through the code.

What do you mean crit for mages?

Some mages have modifiers on their abilities that count as crits from the coding perspective such as Karthus Q, or Nidelee Jump.

Chønklord1 votes

so if you have crit runes/items it makes his Q stronger or...?

Phelas6 votes

You got it right, yes they in fact do.

Sraeg20131 votes

This is completely FALSE.

Abilities don't scale with crit damage unless specified otherwise. They are however affected by crit damage reduction effects.

SH Azykan2 votes

crit damage runes make karthus isolated q's do more damage. Just as randuins reduces it

ForeverLaxx2 votes

From a technical perspective yes, but it's not worth trying to itemize for it since things with Crit don't generally come with caster stats.

kile1471 votes

They do not scale with IE passive, and last I heard were not reduced by Omen crit reduction anymore (though they were originally).

LyingOnLine2 votes

The item got reverted to live.

Glory ln Death2 votes

If it did get reverted (and I haven't seen any info that it has) it's because it isn't intended for release this patch. It, along with all the other item changes, will get reverted to live for a few days and then re-updated with the first PBE cycle next patch.

Anivia Empowered E and Karthus are coded as crit for Omen, but willl not scale up if IE is bought

ZT Xperimentor2 votes

That's interesting, wonder if they're bugged or if it's forgotten code left over from previous changes.

Robert Smith2 votes

Old code to make it deal more damage. When this was addressed a Rioter said it's working as intended and no one is buying omen to reduce damage from those two

if youre a tank and you see a yasuo with 2 crit items and a bloodthirster,you might as well have 6 randuins youre still gonna die.
