Yes, and that is what I mean by "NEVER EVER". A lot of players don't see this as balanced or a good gameplay change. If you want Elder to just end the game then either have it literally just end the game or have it instantly execute all enemies on any damage or something dumb like that. Clearly you think having buff should auto-win the game so why beat around the bush. I don't think the majority of the playerbase feels buffs should auto-win the game though.

Clearly you have a drastically different view of the game than the majority of your playerbase. I'm sure if you polled the playerbase the majority by far would say 1 shroom from a not super fed teemo should NEVER EVER kill a full health champ who isn't super absurdly under farmed or leveled.

The fact that you think this is what should happen is actually extremely disturbing and disheartening for the future of the game for me.

There was nothing to autoattack for her to lifesteal. Plus, Teemo has a Morellonomicon, which f**ks her healing anyway.

Jinx should certainly die to a shroom at this point

No. No champion "should" die to a single f**king ability. What the hell kind of game is that?

You choose what to build when that can make a difference.

Do you, as an ADC? The way I see it, Jinx already has a defensive item, PD, but her needing PD to be up to not die to a single ability is a joke. She already has a QSS, but Mercurial Scimitar only gives +5 magic resistance when the item's completed anyway, and the QSS/Merc active would do nothing for her here. If she went for the MR item earlier, she'd do no damage because ADC damage without going directly for full damage items is godawful. The mistake in the build I see is that Jinx went for 100 percent crit. Maw of Malmortius is off the table because she already has PD. So Jinx...

Why doesn't she have lifesteal?

Why is every bullshit thing in this game the ADCs fault?

Do rioters ever go on Reddit, see threads like this and just think "ah shit I'm busy tomorrow"?

I think i saw on ff20 a new Elder Execution where the drakes droppes a bombo or sth on the target that should get Executed. Is this still in work or is this an old Information i have there ?

Why did you guys make the execute effect into a projectile rather than making it so that if champion A has the Elder buff and apply damage to a enemy B then enemy B gets a debuff which kills him if they are below 10% hp?

I think it is horrible idea in general since there is tons of DoTs in game as well delayed damage done by runes, which means most of time elder gonna kill both.

Or maybe you could fix your f**king game and not make terrible coding a part of decision making?

This is a really tricky one. Part of me thinks this is really unfair for braum, since he's essentially sacrificing himself to save a teammate. But on the other hand that sacrifice could be game winning if he protected the ADC long enough for her to cleanup. I'm not talking about this clip, but in general. Tricky to know the correct path on this one.

Edit: got the answer on this: Braum should not intercept the execute attack.

One problem may be that the Spell going off at all is indicative of the target being about to meet its demise in most cases, anyway (especially with Elder, considering the DOT can just be re-applied), so it just puts Braum into an early grave from full health, too.

I believe this is why it was removed in Urgots case back then, but I don't know for sure because u/GreaterBelugaWhale never told me :x

The Elder Spell is a projectile (or at least interacts with the Windwall tech which Braum E uses like a projectile), so it can be intercepted and deal the effect to Braum instead. The effect is 'die' - technically it's 'lose all shields and take 100% current HP damage*', but that's pretty much the same thing.

* also checks for a few buffs you may have, but you had none of those in this clip

Considering the inconsistent interactions of Urgot's R and the Elder Spell (Urgot chains no longer attach to Braum when he intercepts them since 1 patch after the VGU release), I don't know which set of interactions would be the intended one - to die of Elder but not Urgot, to save from both or to die to both? u/Rovient is responsible for the Elder Dragon shenanigans, so perhaps he could comment on that.

For those curious, here's the initial patch interaction for Urgot R vs Braum...
