How does critic failure works?

JhonST33

I'm figthing VS her on last chapter of variant 5, I carried champions with increased AA like Sorcerer Supreme and Longshot but still take a lot of damage from critic failure . It's supposed she decreased the AA for 15% so awakened SS and Longshot shouldn't take damage, for example my awaken SS has +20% AA and Longshot has +300% AA.

If abilities fail to trigger, it will trigger it.

Longshot himself has abilities that trigger based on chance. Can't remember for SS case though. Also, other external abilities, like masteries and stuff, do also count towards it

When SS is unlucky, her ability accuracy is decreased by 50%. This overwhelms her increased ability accuracy unless she is at max sig, so she can still be hit with critical failure.

My point is the next, all champion have 100% AA, that's mean 85% figthing VS domino, due to AAR. Champions like awakened SS get increas AA, my SS has + 20% AA +100% AA - 15% AA due to domino hability = 105% AA. Based on this example none hability should fail to trigger.

For any reason I didn't 't know that, this answer my question . Thanks bro.

People tend to miss the "Modified chances are already displayed for Longshot's abilities" part. The 51% is still 51%. Failing that still counts as failure for Domino's abilities.

There's a reason Domino is still a hated defender, lol. "Fun and interactive damage" and all that.

Keep in mind that domino modifies the existing chance to happen. So you can have 120% ability accuracy but a particular ability only has a base accuracy of 50%. End result? A 60% chance it triggers and a 40% chance you eat a crit fail. (I’m ignoring her 15% to shorten the math. Sorry).
