League of Math

Your attack deals magic damage. But, you also have to factor in the enemy magic resistance. Alright. But oh no, your attack also manages to do percentage per max health damage as well. Okay. But the damage isn't burst, but rather damage over time that deals it in waves every .5 seconds for four seconds. O...okay. A yeah and there is also a slow that slows for a percentage but the enemy has Mercury Treads, so make sure to calculate for that too. OH GOD STOOOP! Oh it crits too also, yes. But you also have Infinity Edge, so it deals 250% instead of just 200. So do the math for that too.

I hated math in high school, I was good at it but I hated it. Who likes math? Nobody likes math. Nobody's favorite subject is ever math. I remember back in the day when everything was just flat damage and stuns or something like that. Now I have to bring a god damn calculator with me in order to properly calculate whether my full combo will actually end in an enemy death or me face down in the earth like the dog that I am.

EDIT: Alright then, putting this here so people aren't confused. This is satirical. I don't actually bring a calculator with me to the Rift because that would be completely ridiculous. Apparently some think otherwise.

Or you could stop making it too complicated for yourself and just follow basic rules like:

Does the enemy not have that much MR? Better build Flat Penetration and Reduction. A lot of MR? Better build Void Staff. Okay I do % Max Health. I should really prioritize hitting multiple times.

Whereas: In what fucking world do you really need to start calculating individual damage ticks? Merc treads does not affect movement speed slows in that way, Mobis does, but do you seriously need to calculate that? What the fuck is so hard about Infinity Edge's damage amp?

You know why you hated math in High School? You made it too hard for yourself. The last three of your complaints have no practical purposes to calculate. The first two have reeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaally obvious outs that you quite frankly don't even need to calculate. Stop overthinking things.

The joke has flown over your head, past the stratosphere, and into the stars.

You gotta remember that any form of sarcasm is extremely hard to read, especially on the internet.

ESPECIALLY since this is the boards, where people legitimately do complain about this.

I do apologize. You have to realize I operate under the same idea that everyone on the boards takes things way too seriously.
