If Critical CHANCE is going to forever be a thing

Dodge used to exist back in the early stages of League, but got removed due to how the combination of its random nature and complete negation of damage made it a) not really fun to have around, even for champions who successfully dodged attacks, and b) broken on champions who could stack it to high amounts, particularly back when random mechanics were truly random, and not pseudorandom as they are now (, especially, could 1v5 the entire enemy team under the nexus obelisk).

To be fair, critical chance has some similar issues, and its dependence on RNG makes it sometimes feel unfair for both parties involved, as well as seriously unhealthy at low amounts (1% crit rune setups should, by all rights, not exist). It's not nearly as bad as dodge, but it does eventually need to change in order to carry genuine gameplay of its own. It's bad for a game that prides itself on its competitive scene and player skill-centric gameplay to have such a core mechanic (and, by extension, an entire class) rely so heavily on dumb luck, but it's also equally terrible that said mechanic brings massive amounts of power without any real gameplay of its own. I don't think it should just be removed, as it has the potential to be truly interesting and allows autoattackers to become uniquely powerful over time, but I really want the mechanic to end up being non-random, while also capable of producing original and fun gameplay.

Critical is retarded it's good in rpg's and other games like those, but this is an arena multiplayer game no sense in it (unless you use a counter to it)

Items/masteries that reduce crit damage are enough imo.

I don't think they should add Dodge Chance back as its kinda OP and might break Jax... but its definitely a good example of why crit chance shouldn't be here either.

If they're going to keep crit randomness in I'd like dodge randomness back.

I've had 10% crit chance and crit 3 times in a row. 50% dodge chance is op as fuck.

I don't think dodge really counters critical chance specifically, it would counter aa in general. Anyone who autos but can't afford purchasing enough crit to matter will be hurt more than ranged carries who can afford crit, specifically bruisers.

Instead of dodge, I like the idea of . I feel like there should be at least one more item with anti-crit defense.

Theres a major difference.

Crit only adds to your damage. No matter what, theres still a minimum amount of damage you are doing if you don't crit. But dodge meant you took NO damage at all. It completely negated an attack. It would be frustrating to lose because your opponent got a critical hit, but its far worse to lose because you couldn't get a hit at all.

Because Dodge chance is unfair. I do not really like critical chance for the same reason. It does appear to be the dodge stats counterpart.

I'd rather get rid of Critical Chance. However, this would require a lot of changes to champs and masteries. It would also involve refunding Critical Chance runes hopefully. Tryndamere, Ashe, and Yasuo have critical chance as important parts of their kits. Granted, Ashe could substitute something else for the damage cit chance adds to Frost Shot, and Yasuo could be compensated in some other way. As for Tryn, he needs a rework.

That does not mean Crit Chance has to be removed though, as it is not as bad as dodge. I just wouldn't mind if it disappeared, especially since it would increase marksman build diversity, since most marksman would no longer rush IE.
