Largest Crit

eLEGENDAIRY·4/21/2015, 4:04:11 PM·1 votes·1,267 views

I've done a bit of experimenting with different champions and I don't yet own all the champions but I wonder which champion has the largest critical strike and what items it takes to get that. So far of the ones that i've experimented with Nidalee and Malphite take the cake going away with caitlyn a distant third. Using Nidalee in her cougar form I was able to get a crit over 2900 and using Malphite's W, I was able to get 2990 I believe thanks to the 40% AD steroid. Now as background for that I also was using crit damage quints and marks and went basically straight AD with IE. I was surprised that i wasn't able to get a larger crit with Gangplank. If I remember correctly I got him up to 2500ish. Yi, Yasuo, and Trynd were all somewhat disappointing(yasuo obviously because of the 10% reduction) but I guess they are more geared toward multiple crits instead of single huge crits. I've also wondered if the stats page factors in the damage from Statikk Shiv since that damage can critically strike. that's an extra 281ish damage if you have IE and runes. So those are my thoughts. I'm interested to find out what you guys know(then I don't have to spend the time testing every champ myself). Have at it.

Personal hunch: Shaco

Full Crit Damage runes, Infinity Edge, and as much AD as you can cram into his items. Max Q (which modifies your crit to 220%, or 320% with the runes and IE), then come up behind your target for the extra 20% damage, bringing you to a crit that is about 380% your AD.

Obviously you're sacrificing a lot of valuable stats to make this work, but for a proof of concept, I'd try that.

Jayce W before there recent nerf. 130% base damage fully modified by crit and IE multipliers, not for one, not for two, but for three attacks at 2.5 attack speed? delish. Probably not the largest individual crit though.

The old Jayce w + his standard build (muramana, ie, etc) - and it was not a troll build... too bad LCS ruined another champ with nerfs.

I wonder if Draven or Vayne would be able to top the others in terms of largest single crit damage. Draven Q 85% (dunno if it crits though), and Vayne 50% + 70AD steroid from ult (again, I dunno if it crits).

I ended a SR normal game with 853 AD as Zed and managed a crit for 2,346, that's certainly the highest I've ever gotten. I'd be interested to see what the maximum would be, however.

Just straight up damage, no farming infinite stacks with someone like Nasus... I'd say Draven. I pointed this out in another thread about why crits should be removed. Draven's Q at level 5 does 85% bonus damage. combined with crits, his attacks end up scaling like this:

Basic attack: 100 Basic attack w/Level 5 Q: 185 Crits: 370 Infinity Edge: 462.5 Sheen: 562.5 Triforce: 662.5

That's not counting the additional attack damage he'd have from all the damage items. Just two items (Infinity Edge and Triforce) and his potential damage already sextupled in size.

Talon Talon's is pretty intense when it comes to crit since his Q can crit. Blitzcrank E is pretty awesome too Darius W XinZhao Q Yasuo Q. All of those are awesome sources of crit damage and it helps if you run Crit damage runes.

just a question did head shot proc with your crit? That is another possible boost for cait.

Also what are you testing on? a camp, a champ, baron?
