Because few (if any) DoT spells last for 5 seconds and do relatively high damage per second, while regen is generally quite low and lasts long (or infinite) periods.

Why does that make listing regen useful as per-5 useful? You already have fractional regen-per-5 from natural level-up gains and runes, and it's not like it's that confusing.

I can see zero gain from having regen listed as per-5. It just adds a minor annoyance when trying to calculate shit.

Because items and tooltips don't list decimals. They're only tracked internally. Same reason gold is per 10 instead of per 5 I'd imagine. They want to avoid decimals because it's easier to add integers.

Doesn't Warmog's list fractional HP/hp5 gains when you have strange stack counts?

And you don't have any funky math to do with gold/10, so you can use whatever the hell units you want for it.

Why do we bother using units like millimeters when we have a perfectly good unit in the meter that we could use instead? People like to see numbers of a certain size, and the numbers in the game make measuring regen per 5 or per 10 a more natural choice than per 1.

Except, again, you have to convert either all to per-second or all per-5 when you want to actually do math with the numbers, still. Using per-5 regen doesn't make fractional regen disappear. You're still going to do the division and go to per-second in a situation where you actually want to use the numbers for something.

Yeah there's some special cases for stacking items I guess, but every nonstacking item I can think of that gives hp5 does so in whole numbers.

Riot doesn't care too much about the people who like to do the math as much as people who actually enjoy playing the game.

Except if you're not doing the math, then how the hell is "15 hp5" any different than "a bunch of hp5"?

Numbers are only useful insofar as you're actually using the numbers. Why the hell would you display the numbers in a fashion that's most useful for the people who don't care about them? From that perspective, you could just have the tooltip for Infinity Edge be "This item makes you do a lot more autoattack damage, crit more often, and makes your crits hit way harder." For most of the player base, it'd be the same damn thing. They'd still just copy the recommended items/what their friends tell them to buy/high elo streams.

EDIT: Completely random aside, that would be an interesting idea for a game--don't externally display any of the numbers for items/character stats. Just give general descriptions and make the theorycrafting junkies want to tear their hair out.

Of course in practice, that wouldn't work because in 2 days someone would datamine the game files and make that data available.


Diablo 3 is about to do just that with their simplified tooltips. They'll either release the data for the websites or just allow it to be mined, but they said they're trying to simplify tooltips by greatly reducing the information and numbers contained.

Law of Averages plus being a teamgame.

When 11 million people play your game there will be a lot of really bad people.
When 4 people can carry 1 utterly bad person to a win he gets higher then he should be.

But that should even out over 100s of games. I see people with 300+ games at 1600 that can't last hit, never ward, always run into super obvious traps ect. I don't know but I could never ever see a Master/Diamond (how many master players in the world are there?) do shit like that. I wouldn't even say a Silver League player would do those kinds of things, yet they manage to stay over 100's of games, that must mean that the rest of that 1600's are just as bad on average. Also the more players you have logicly your top 10.000 should be better than those with less players.


I think you are just really biased. Are you saying that everyone 1600+ should have perfect last hitting and perfect map awareness? And you never see masters/diamond players do stupid shit? Hell, even pro players get supply blocked from stupid mistakes fairly frequently. The amount that master/diamond players get supply blocked is very high and that is just a stupid mistake most of the time. Top SC players also get baited into very obvious traps. "O hey come chase my mutalisks you can kill them easy." BANELING MINES. Not to mention things like going fast cloaked banshees and then losing it to marines. SC players make just as many dumb mistakes.

Hahaha, you have a very strange idea of how good masters and diamond players are at SC2...many diamond players don't even know proper build orders that you could find on liquipedia or strat forums.

I think it only removes slow part, in the same way GP orange and Garen spin remove the snare from exhaust but not the actual debuff.
Taken from the wiki:
Once Chum the Waters has become attached to an enemy champion, it is classified as "delayed damage" and will still affect "untargetable" foes (such as champions using Sanguine Pool, Twisted Advance, or Alpha Strike). If the marked champion dies or removes the mark with Quicksilver Sash, the secondary effects of Chum the Waters will activate immediately, making it undesirable to remove.
That's pretty annoying lol.

Isn't the current behavior that it instantly triggers the fish?

It should only remove the slow, not the debuff itself. And if the slow is constantly reapplied, you'll get slowed again.
Think Morde ult with Rylai's: Cleanse removes the slow temporarily, but not the debuff.

But they know how to tie their own shoelaces, unlike 95% of the people at 1600.

He's a pubstomper at best and outclassed at pretty much everything he does. His kit is awesome, but numbers need to be tweaked and besides, currently, there's no place to put him.
