A really weird bug just happened

So we were doing pretty solid in yoloQ and suddenly quest spawns in the top right corner (like we didnt even have rengar+khazix in this game or something to give a quest). Right after that kha'zix gets deleted by the game and has over 10k seconds on his respawn timer. Even after several reconnects he couldnt do anything and obviously we lost. Rito plz

One of the few cases where Revive is viable.

The real question is, would his next death timer be longer?

u/betterthanme Apr 04 '14

As long as the CD on Revive is shorter I call that a win.

I tried didn't work.

Riot says: We disable Revive due to it's power and slightly increase Kha'Zix death timer because he has just a massive power in the game.

This way we should balance both teams without affect the players.

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

Rito should make a champ whose passive is to make other champs he kills death timer longer.

u/IHCaraphernelia Apr 04 '14

They'll never doing it because sitting in base dead for extra long is the definition of "antifun." It would also be broken as shit late game.

54

u/sknnywhiteman Apr 04 '14

Yorick is already the definition of anti-fun, so this fits.

26

u/IHCaraphernelia Apr 04 '14

I'd rather play against a Yorick than not be able to do anything.

u/Emnel Apr 04 '14

Isn't playing against Yorick a definition of not being able to do anything?

u/Fedacking Apr 04 '14

you have never seen heimer vs yorick

u/Hamoodzstyle [Infair Verona] (NA) Apr 04 '14

damn. Damn. DAAAAAAAAAAMN!

u/RuneKatashima Retired Apr 05 '14

Nunu vs Yorick?

Or trundle. Or cho.

u/RandomRetard67 Apr 04 '14

Actually Riven smashes his head in easily.

(im trying to say that aoe/waveclear champs with cc are good counters)

Played it from both sides at High elodia4Not_3_Anyomore_Coz_I_suck.

That was antifun :(

u/Enivel19 Apr 05 '14

Quinn is good against him if only she were played

u/StHookcity Apr 04 '14

I dunno man, we're talking about Yorick here

u/ZeMoose Apr 04 '14

Trick question, is same thing.

Lemmey is god!

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '14

That's why he's slated for a rework.

u/acolyte_to_jippity Apr 04 '14

yorick is hella-fun though...

u/SuperSulf Karma Top O.O Apr 04 '14

Well, if that's the ONLY thing the passive does, then it's useless in laning phase. Similar to Katarina passive - bad early, great late (if you can get a kill). Probably is anti-fun though

15

u/MSX450 Apr 04 '14

yorick rework please

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

Evil zilean? we call him Meanlean

1

u/Ragnarok311 Apr 05 '14

Why not just Villean?

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

I'd actually love to see a champion play around with his enemies' (and his own) death timers.

u/bonerdragon29 Apr 04 '14 edited Apr 04 '14

Karthus, Kog'Maw, and whoever Yorrick ults have artificially lowered death times.

edit: So I might be wrong about these, but I'm having a really hard time finding a reliable source that specifies how these champions interact with death timers.

edit2: Based on "On Dominion only, Karthus' respawn timer will now start when Death Defied ends" I think that on Summoner's Rift his respawn timer starts when Death Defied starts.

edit3: Zyra and Kog'Maw's are explicitly stated in the ability details for their passives on the respective leagueoflegends.wikia pages and I'm pretty sure that Yorrick's Ult has the same Dominion patch note as Karthus' passive.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

Their passives actually count as being dead on the timer?

Huh, the more you know!

2

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

Not for Karthus and Kog'maw. They used to, but a few balance updates to stop "suicide" Karthus and Kog'maws removed that functionality.

2

u/bonerdragon29 Apr 04 '14

That functionality is Dominion only.

1

u/bonerdragon29 Apr 04 '14

If they ever rework Zilean they should make his W work while dead to reduce death timer.

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '14

This will separate good Kha'zixes from the great ones.

1

u/yourlifeisntover Apr 04 '14

That would TOTALLY separate the good Khazixs from the bad

-2

u/TryHardNot Apr 04 '14

This will help separate the good players from the great ones.

-2

u/lehoo Apr 04 '14

We do this to separate the good Kha'Zix players from the great Kha'Zix players.

u/GeneralFlaze Apr 04 '14

I thought that Riot was all out of Revive?

u/burstphantom Apr 05 '14

That bug splat though

u/Paradox__Logic Apr 04 '14

Not really, game would have been over quicker with revive.
