Quicksilver Whiplash Damage .. Can Someone Test?

Ok I ran into something really weird during a war match ... I put 74 whiplash on a rank 3 Thing and it did not kill him. Normally that would kill just about anyone or take a significant chunk off of them but I had to go through 3 momentum cycles because it just seemed like whiplash damage was seriously wrong.
So for a 6R3, his whiplash ability says that at its very basic it deals 1679 after 12 seconds or when it expires right? So does that mean if I had 74 whiplash, then I should have done at least 1679 x 74 in damage?
Doom with 20 whiplash (should have been roughly 33K instead?)
Thing with 14 whiplash (should have been roughly 23K instead?)
I don't know if I've ever really given it that much attention but I could've sworn his damage was much more than this and when Thing literally laughed at me stacking 74 whiplash, I was like wait wth lol
Can someone test their Quicksilver out to see if they notice anything with his whiplash damage?

But I could just be crazy.
Doom- each whiplash is an individual event so when they detonate only as many are needed to kill the opponent will occur/display.
Thing- whiplash is physical damage and Thing has increased physical resistance via his rock stacks.
but here's Galan at 21 whiplash expiring. Galan has zero physical resistance .. should it not be 1679 x 21? so roughly 35K in damage?
i seriously didn't know that .. so i've watched a ton of videos about QS and when he deals the big damage no one has ever mentioned that only this amount expired so the damage could be more or less given how many the game calculated as necessary?
As for why whiplash was doing less against Thing, it’s due to his physical resistance from his rock stacks. Quicksilver’s whiplash damage is classified as physical damage, so physical resistance will directly decrease the damage done. The only red damage that is not affected by physical or energy resistance is those that are classified as direct damage.
kudos.
