Fastest Moving Ranged Auto-attack?

KoganeRyujin··1 votes·2,638 views

So I was trying out Xayah the other day in the practice tool (I don't play very many marksmen, and I haven't practiced the ones I actually play for a good bit), and in retrospect I didn't really notice just how fast her auto-attacks were moving. Maybe it was my imagination but I thought they were traveling pretty fast compared to the autos of other marksmen ADCs. For the first half of my League career (I guess you'd call it) I got trapped into the niche of playing support all the time so I've seen quite a lot of the majority of marksmen in the laning phase, and I feel like I have a pretty good grasp (on a weird subconscious level that is) of how fast every projectile auto-attack travels. Maybe I just don't notice the difference on a conscious level but yeah...

So here's my question: Do all ranged projectile auto-attacks travel towards their target at the same speed or not? And if not, then which is the fastest? Keep in mind I am not talking about Attack Speed or the auto-attack animation, and I am not talking about other ranged champions classified as marksmen with instantaneous auto-attack damage like Azir.

Thanks

I don't know which is fastest but they are different speeds. Anivia, soraka and Annie have pretty slow autos

Yeah I feel like Jhin's might be one of the faster ones if my memory serves me right. I feel like it looks instant, but I feel like I've also seen his autos get blocked by wind wall and had it happen to me as well when playing Jhin myself.

Kayle, Thresh, and Rakan have instant autos (and I think they aren't blocked by wind/braum walls)

Soraka has notoriously slow auto projectile speed. I think Anivia and Karthus are also pretty slow but the main reason they feel slow is because their auto animations are very long.

Vel'Koz also has an instant ranged attack, and I believe Graves' is instant as well (if it's not, it's definitely the fastest, non instant one).

Some people have instant autos. also caitlyn headshot travels faster than her basic abilities. also also projectile speed from autos scales with AS i think.
