Longshot taking Critical Failure Damage from Domino

in General Discussion

Longshot's base 300% ability accuracy is supposed to be more then powerful enough to counter Domino's ability accuracy reduction. I did the same fight with Mysterio who in comparison only has 100% additional ability accuracy and he doesn't suffer from the fun and interactive damage. In Longshot's spotlight a developer note is included mentioning how he's supposed to be a good counter against Domino.

    It looked like it triggered when you try to parry and unless longshot changes that to 300% as well domino can still reduce that chance

    His abilities are already based on that ability accuracy increase. And as you can read, they don't happen 100% of the time, which means it can still fail.
    It it fails, you take critical failure. Thats how it works here

    What I know is that his parry and dexterity are not affected so you will not get critical failure from that.

    Basically you wanna intercept most of the time to avoid critical failure from parrying Domino.

    He has 51% to gain good karma when attacked. If it dont trigger, he takes damage even that isnt because of Domino's ability. For Mysterio, all of his have 100% to trigger while the helmet is active and cannot be reduced

    His abilities also state that his base ability accuracy can only be lowered through debuffs. Domino lowers ability accuracy via a passive effect.

    His ability accuracy affects nodes in Alliance War but not basic abilities like parry & dexterity. You can try Mysterio against Domino, he can parry, trigger dexterity without suffering any passive damage so long as the helmet is active.

    That % is from his base ability, it isn't lowered by anything more his own design, his parries can't fail but good karma from hits can, so you get damaged

    He's not as effective of an option as Mysterio and Mysterio is the best Domino counter in the game plus he's immune to AAR and can't go unlucky. Longshot isn't a tech champ so he can still be unlucky and you have to play agressive against Domino.

    I was not unlucky at any point during the video I linked.

    Well yeh, but that doesn't matter here.
    If an ability has 51% chance to proc, there is still a 49% chance that it won't. And that chance to not proc is what triggers critical failure.
    Technically Domino doesn't need to reduce ability accuracy in order to trigger critical failure

    Domino's sig ability will always be a mystery for some guys.

    For some reason ppl think its only about -AA that triggers the energy damage.

    Man just read her abilities...
