You think creep block is bad...

I was playing Hecarim and Master Yi just used alpha strike, landing directly inside of my champion model, causing me to be trapped in place. I could not path around him. http://webm.land/media/QDE9.webm

Champion/minion collisions in league are bull shit.

Aye. It was also my first death of the game. I was 6/0 with most of our teams kills when I was shut down. Yi started snowballing after this and we barely won the game in the end. We ended up making a comeback after being 12k gold behind at one point but it took a lot of difficult teamfights to finally end the game. I feel like this death may have cost me an S rank since I ended up forced to rack up a lot of deaths on suicidal ult engages so that we could ace them repeatedly.

Honestly, you most likely would have died there either way. It's still dumb that that happened, but I don't think you can blame the block for the difficulties after.

FeelsBadMan Glad you still ended up winning.

Were you using your Devastating Charge in this clip? It looks like you weren't, but I figured I'd ask because I haven't played Hecarim in awhile. During Devastating Charge, Hecarim becomes ghosted, meaning that he ignores unit collision, which could have expired during or right after Yi's Alpha Strike, causing you to get stuck. While still a bug, it would at least make some sense and you could probably pass that information onto Riot.

Related: I don't have a clip for it, but, playing as Illaoi, if you are positioned a certain way relative to the wall when a tentacle spawns, you will be stuck against the wall and unable to use the back command. You can TP out and you can die, otherwise you are stuck.

By the way, let me know if there is a better video gallery website that doesn't require an account where I can upload the replay to and embed it directly to the boards so that people don't need to click through a link.

I dunno about embedding directly but I just upload webms to google drive. It lets you link to them directly with the share link and it uses the same flash player as youtube so its not so scary for people clicking the link.

He was positioned in front of you, not inside of you, so you were trying to sueeze between him and the wall.

I could not path around him.

It seems you didn't even try to, but started attacking him instead.

A decent pathing system would have automatically moved him around wherever it was possible. NOT keeping to try to squeeze through where it wasn't possible.

It really shouldn't be necessery to micro-manage a character every step of the way whenever something unexpected occurs. And considering the pace of the game, by the time you even notice what is going on, the only way to escape may be to burn Flash.

It's unacceptable by such a large gaming company, obsessed with E-sport, to let this slide in 2018.

Weird, I think it SHOULD be possible to micro-manage a character every step of the way, why would anyone want it any other way around? It's not like you're playing fps and need to manage multiple squads of different troops, you're literally controlling one character.

And autopathing is crap, but he shouldn't say he "couldn't move around" when he probably didn't even try doing it?

You know it's getting late when I can't even use the right words. 4 hours ago makes it 5 AM local time. No wonder I think I shouldn't write anything at those hours...

It really shouldn't be necessary to micro-manage a character

There we go.

i use https://gfycat.com/ for my highlight stuff, sometimes its a bit slow but it gets the job done fine, for example https://gfycat.com/ForsakenDefensiveEland

you may need to just click on the video player so that its not running at like 2 fps ¯_(ツ)_/¯

PaladinNO1 votes

2 FPS...25 FPS, what's the difference. I cry if I see less than 120 FPS. ^^

...it really isn't getting worse, though.

I had a slightly different issue last season where my pathing was screwed up for no reason.

My Jarvan used his ult in a choke in the jungle. As Brand, I ran up to ult the 3 people trapped in his ult. Clicking in his ult caused my champion to turn around to run away because he couldn't walk through the ult. Clicked again near J4 ult wall, turned that way, clicked my ult and clicked the people in the wall, only to immediately turn around and start walking away again. I did this like 4 times before he finally lowered his ult wall and I was able to actually help. So obnoxious how pathing just goes all screwy sometimes for no obvious reason. I mean, I can right click and attack people over a wall, but trying to do it over J4 wall was just impossible that game. Happened like 3 different times between J4 and Trundle pillars.

But yeah, that's so stupid how a champion can kinda lock you in place because pathing is just weird.

Minions get super speed when blocking you as well. I love watching them nearly warp around me in a circle including casters.
