@@nightcore8788 Ah the good ol' days. Old Raka healing cannon right after a turret shot for more than the ADC can do, just for the next turret shot to scoop it up. Good times. (Terrible times.)
You see, one might think they coded the minions as champions, but that's a common misconception. They actually recoded them all as towers and every support ability was recoded as Janna Shield
For Morgana and Soraka I thought it was a new feature. Then came Orianna and showed that it is just the classic spagetti code at its finest. I may remember incorrectly, but there was a time when Karma and maybe Janna shields worked on minions and it was intended.
Yeah, it was intended. Look like they recode all the support spell to the same property as Janna shield. So they still cleaning up all the tech-debt behind the screen.
I used to annoy the enemy ADC by shielding the cannon minion before they hit, causing it to drop to very low right before they could hit it again, just so that the enemy minions finished it instead.
In Nami Mains subreddit we were noticing this. It applies on Nami's E and applies the slow, in addition to the champs you have there it works on Zyra's plants too and applies some of the item effects to the minion (Maiden, Voidlings and Tibbers do not proc it)
And just like that Janna became the best champ in the game again. Janna R + Ardent Cencer. 25% attack speed and 20+ dmg per hit for the entire minion wave and ally summons.
@@shrek2542 Unfortunately he is right when it comes to the average NPC. The reason Riot ascribes to the game theory idea of "Perfect Imbalance" is precisely because people like this guy exist and they're the majority. So it works.
This just shows we will always remove something, only to add it back later. Still remember you could karma shield minions back in the day. Very fun to fuck up the enemies cannon like that.
it's actually pretty good change (hoping it is intended) so you can use it to finish the plate/structure or even close out the game with a single minion just make it work properly for things like ori r
oh my god THEY MADE ENCHANTERS ACTUALLY INTERESTING you can now pull a dota 2 and prevent the enemy from getting last hits like i hope they keep this in the game the amount of new strategies that can come out of this is immense
This was in the game before, it was removed like 10 years ago, I remember annoying enemies by shielding minions they were going to lasthit and make them lose the last hit. Edit: It used to work on wards too, you could shield wards.
I remember back in the day how disgusting it was to shield minions as Karma. if you timed things right, you could stack a massive wave under turret and make it so every 3rd melee minion required 4 turret strikes to die. You just demolished turrets if left unchecked. With void mites added into the picture, yikes…
I am actually suprised nobody is talking about the fact that back in the day Soraka healing minions was ACTUALLY in the game. Note: Just fact checked this, it was removed in V6.5, god I'm old.
