Miss Fortune Double Up/Stormrazor Interaction

I recorded this myself because I write all the time how Double Up (Q) procs Stormrazor just to get downvoted or told I don't know what I'm talking about or that her Q never crits, or that Stormrazor doesn't apply because it's not an on hit effect or that her Q doesn't apply on hit effects, or some other statement that clearly lacks any knowledge of the champion. (In their defense the Stormrazor tooltip does specifically say your next "auto attack" but since it's an on hit effect we know what that means for MF.)

While it is true that Stormrazor does not proc on the first part of the Q (It never ever does, and I have tested this), it will ALWAYS proc on the second part regardless if the first target was killed, and since the proc is a critical strike it will apply the bonus % damage every time you use Q with the Stormrazor proc (although the bonus is reduced for this interaction). Zeal items however can proc critical strikes on the first part or the second part, or both, or neither depending on your critical strike percentage. Your critical strike percentage also applies to Bullet Time, but Stormrazor does not because Bullet Time does not apply on hit effects.

(For further proof you can watch my move speed change in the video when Stormrazor procs.)

I thought I would share this because I don't think a lot of people actually understand or realize how strong that interaction is (or that it even exists) and Stormrazor first item actually out damages Duskblade as a first item because of this (and the fact it has more AD which she scales VERY well with). Duskblade second item (the lethality is nice, but being able to run around without being seen is better) into an armor pen item (trust me it hurts) or Black Cleaver (I forgo the Ghostblade because I just build Swifties and press W).

Hope this helps any aspiring MF players to try something a little different instead of blindly following some Pro Guide.

I also run Dark Harvest / Taste of Blood / Eyeball Collection / Ravenous Hunter / Absolute Focus / Gathering Storm (as of patch 8.18)

I'm not saying this is bad or good, just the facts of the ability and item interaction~

EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised if this is a bug and it's actually supposed to proc on the first part only but then that may make it too easy to kill the first target and get the bonus damage anyway. Man what an item Stormrazor is... breaking the game in so many ways. Get that freelo while you can!

The first shot of double up never crits. It procs on hit effects though, so static shiv may activate.

The second shot critting with stormrazor is an interaction that's working as intended.

MissFortune Double up has always interacted in this way with crit modifications. A physical spell that applies on hit effects and has a crit trigger tends to qualify for most auto attack modifications.

Gangplank Q works the same way. Pirates/ Pirate Hunters (o^_^)p

It's worth noting that the crit damage is properly reduced ( For both MissFortune and Gangplank ).

Critting a dummy with a stormrazer enabled second shot crits for 99 at level 1

Critting a dummy with a 100 percent crit chance enabled shot with equivalent AD crits for 142 at level 1

While the recent Stormrazer crit damage reductions definitely nerfed this interaction, item 3095 is still a pretty good first item

Thanks for posting OP!

I agree until you say that it's better to build StormR as first item on MF, I've tried it a lot of times but the 2 lethality items are still too good for not only her Q but also for her ultimate that will deal a really low dmg if you only have StromR that only gives you 5 ad more than a GhostBlade or DuskBlade but lacks the lethality.

But to be fair I play other build and runes.

If you want to try I play with: Comet-Mana Band-Absolute Focus-Gathering Storm and for second Coup de Grace and the one that gives you atack speed. Items I go Duskblade/Ghostblade first in any order depending of the matchup, defensive boots and then StormR into RFC with a last item depending of the game.

I should try more to play with DarkHarvest but I'v never liked it.
