Kog'maw is broken to the colorblind

iWanna69withyou··5 votes·816 views

Kog'maw's ult is indicated by a thin red line. Given that most games occur on maps with green or blue backgrounds, it becomes very difficult for those with red-green colorblindness to determine where kog'maw's ult is casted. The only hope is that the enemy kog'maw selects the battlecast skin so there is a large square indicator on the ground. If this does not occur, there is simply no counterplay. I was left guessing where the ult would land (good thing the kog'maw player was bronze or something).

isn't there a colorblind mode in league? Or is what you're talking about still a thing in colorblind mode?

RiotMontag: It allows people who are colorblind to easily distinguish between minions, champions, and AOE spells where it's not clear who owns them. For example, if you're red-green color blind, it's really difficult to know which minion you should be last-hitting based on health bars -- they both look the same. Color-blind mode changes the enemy health bars to their side-color (blue or purple) and surrounds AOEs with circle colors that are easier to tell apart for someone who's colorblind, like blue or yellow.

Colorblind mode does not change anything about the champions in game (including skillshot colors). The colorblind mode changes the target frame and minion colors.
