Riot. If you are going to make abilities that have lines defining their edges.....

Make the ability line up with the animation.

Illaoi's tentale smash is wider than the animation

Tahm Kench's Tongue Lash is wider than the animation

When Lux casts Lucent Singularity you KNOW where the edge of the ability is because it has a defined edge. If someone walked next to that area but still was affected by the slow when they weren't in the animation that would be a problem. Why are Tahm and Illaoi allowed to have this in their already "wow this is really not fun to play against" kits?

Jinx's "warning" for Zap also does not match the actual skill's hitbox.

Stepping out of Morg's circle (when she has ulted you) does not always break it.

etc.

Im curious how many fucking times im going to have to post this before people stop saying it doesnt match the animation. It fucking does.

There are very real problems with abilities not matching animations, but Illaoi's tentacles are NOT one of them.

I haven't had experience with Illaoi's tentacles being wider, but longer instead. Hit box still seems to be off for it :/

I can't tell you how many times I've died to Lux's ult when I can see grass between myself and the animation.

Karthus doesnt even have a radius for his Q on quick cast.

Oh. Hell. No. Galio THIS FUCKER (Which I love playing) HAS A LYING ULT. DONT IGNORE THIS. WE'VE ALL HAD THAT MOMENT WHERE YOU WERE LIKE "Hmm, since I didnt get stuck in the ult I should try to help attack outside of it" AND THEN YOU WALKED NEAR THE OUTLINE, GOT TAUNTED ANYWAY, AND DIED.

Then theres Cho'Gath with the opposite problem.

His Q hitbox is shorter than it indicates.

@OP. Keep in mind there is at least 100ms delay between the players. At the end of the day, there is that weird synching system that try to compromise by spreading the delay between both side.

You're out of the tentacles range now, but how about 100ms ago ? If you were in back there, expect any result. Maybe on her screen, illaoi walked an extra 100ms in the right direction before she cast the spell and you got hit. Maybe you were walking in the right direction to dodge before the cast and she was seeing you 100ms behind, she cast her skill right on you but on your screen your were nearly out already. You got lazy and stop dodging right on the edge ?

I know it's easy to forget about the ping delay, specially here in lol, riot made a pretty decent job at the task. But remember there is a blurry line around the skill shots and if 2 actions from different players happen simultaneously inside the ping range expect weird results. Specially if they cause people to displace, then it can become funny.
