Riot has been reducing the 'randomness' in LoL lately. What about Brand's ult?

i say make it prioritize champs but only target each target once unless it has no where else to go.

I played Brand yesterday, and his ult (the ult alone, didn't even autoattack at the time) gave me a quadrakill <3 =D

btw no need to check my match history, I hang out on eune.

Keep in mind that it was likely designed to be the way it is

It's an interesting question though! but one I'll leave to the designers

Tell me, what's the posibilities of surviving HALF Brand's combo if that ulti prioritized champions?



Which AP champion can deal 450 + 0.5 AP damage at level 6 with a SINGLE skill?
Xerath. Highest lvl 6 burst in game.


How about: brand ult prioritizes targets with passive on, not counting the instance it applies.

I would like to know the reason. I'm having a hard time thinking of any justifications for a design that allows for the negation of an ultimate.

what do?



dem Echo Slams ~

and now that DotA is mentioned....a lot of people "think" that everything in DotA is OP ~ just to mention it, not even Lich's Chain Frost prioritizes champions (Chain Frost = Pyroclasm's daddy)
And who said that everything in dota is op and who said lich's ult prioritized champs?

Brand ultimate is situational, you can't just press a button and expect a kill off it.
because lich players learned how to use his ult. If you're in lane you kill all the creeps but one, then you unleash hell. Your ult will bounce back and forth between the 1 creep and enemy hero. Dead hero.

In group fights his ult was superior to brands because it had splash damage.

riot has stated in the past his ult would be "to op" if it prioritized champions.
