Ez Q does not crit. That's partially why the old Triforce/Blue Ez builds don't care for crit beyond whatever Triforce gives, and why IE as a 1st item is not as good as BT or Triforce.

correction to myself: the ability damage does not crit, so garen q is indeed outside the set criteria (although the original post was a bit vague!)

I wouldn't think of those as ability damage though. That's just an extra AA, which can crit like any other AA. Naut passive is unique in that it's the ability itself critting, instead of the ability giving you an extra AA.

Abilities only, so not counting AA modifications which don't have the base damage crit. Or AA modifications which provide raw AD. We might say "anything that has its critical strike damage increased by Infinity Edge's Passive" might apply

So we have GP's q, Garen's E, Master Yi's Q, Pantheon's Q, Yasuo's Q, Yorick's Q*

*The base damage doesn't crit. But the attack does 1.2 AD damage and it will crit based on this. Ergo some portion of the the bonus damage will crit on Omen of War, so an Omen of war IE crit should do +3.0 AD instead of +2.7 AD (It does not for Shaco's Q or any other ability which is not an auto attack modifier)

Potentially: Jinx Q.The bonus damage does not crit, but the splash damage does.

Potentially: Sions R: The ally healing scales on damage done which scales on crit

Wait, doesn't kayle's E AoE crit?

EDIT: nvm, only the target she hit gets critted (but bonus dmg is applied after crit). So doesn't fit criteria.

i see, that's a fair distinction to make

Edit: I was wrong. But Deceive probably still doesn't count. While modified by the IE damage. Deceive is just a guaranteed auto attack critical strike.

Excellent point! Didn't think of that.

How does the mastery that reduces crit damage work?

Say you got hit for a 250% crit with IE. Do you now take 240% (-10% flat), 225% (-10% total damage), or 235% (-10% of total crit portion of the damage)?

Does Naut's passive actually crit like that?

Also Shaco's Passive crits in that the +20% bonus damage is applied after critical strike. (so if you have IE and crit the bonus damage, as a function of your base damage would be 50%)

IIRC testing indicated -10% of the total damage.

EDIT: I thought the -10% total makes it really good but it's the wrong way to look at it. It's still weaker than Tabi against autos.

Say you have a you have a Mundo with 3.5khp and 280 armor. An adc with IE+PD that crits for 1000 would have it reduced to ~300 (1000 *0.9 tabi *0.9 crit reduction *~0.37 from armor). The talent accounts for ~35 damage. That's not bad, but only ~1% of your total hp at that stage in the game.

This is a full build ADC against a (nearly) full build tank. If there's only one major crit threat on the other team, I can see why people skip the 3-4 extra points needed to get this talent and instead opt for ones that matter more before endgame builds.

Yes, haven't you ever seen the OP that is Atma's Impaler Nautilus?

Also Shaco's Passive crits in that the +20% bonus damage is applied after critical strike. (so if you have IE and crit the bonus damage, as a function of your base damage would be 50%)

Correct, though that's more like Talon's Mercy, which I excluded for the purposes of this discussion. Otherwise Kayle's passive "crits" as well.

Speaking of crits, I feel 200% crits is too much burst. I hope Riot can nerf the crit damage and increase crit chance.

E.g. crits do 150% damage and make all items give twice as much crit %. Yasuo and IE adjusted similarly.

What? Non-IE crits suck megabutts as it is.
