[@johnflory3306]

The dash has a small aoe bubble that extends from your friendly host on the first instance of damage. Meaning, if you dash into your cerb while he is basically touching someone on the other side of him, you still get the 1st dash damage as well as the popout damage. Really makes it easier to get it off if your physicals are aggressive.

I love nox. One of my favorite mages. Got her to V before the rework and then loved her even more after the rework.. One big thing he never showed off if someone is backing and you need to escape faster than you will be able to back you can jump or dash into someone and you'll go with them. Just like if you get an Apollo or Thanatos, if they alt when you are inside of them you will not come out until they land Edit edit: nox bubble will completely cancel Odin jump and shield explosion.

[@Zexion46]

Small note on Nox's dash when she hides into someone. She can still be hit by Nu Wa's ult and Chiron's unmissable shot. It used to just hit whoever you hid in and would make you immune to that all together but they fixed that last year.....which sucks because it used to be a lifesaver :( Not sure if Chernabog is immune to those two things and any other damage that is similar

[@rickkcir2151]

Fact of the day: The cigarette lighter was invented before the match.

[@Certninja11]

I like these facts as much as anyone; but this one is simply not true: "The first modern, self-igniting match was invented in 1805 by Jean Chancel, assistant to Professor Louis Jacques Thénard of Paris." "First lighter was invented in 1823 with the effort of the famous German chemist Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner". I'm sorry to ruin the fun

[@charlesbronson2926]

What’s a self igniting match?

[@rickkcir2151]

Certninja11 You’re wrong in the practical sense. The first strike-able matches were created in 1826 by John Walker, Samuel Jones copied the idea since Walker wasn’t interested in patenting it, so Walker made a match design similar to the ones we have today. The matches made by Jean Chancel were self igniting matches and were extremely dangerous since they produced chlorine dioxide, a gas that explodes by pretty much anything if it reaches 10% air concentration. I’m referring to striking matches that are used today, if we’re referring to a stick with something flammable on the end, then technically the earliest record of a “match” was made in 950AD China which was basically sulfur on a stick, and was also non strike-able.

[@charlesbronson2926]

“The match they are referring to, the one they say came before the lighter, was nothing more than sticks (not tooth-pick size, but actual sticks, they found laying around) soaked with a flammable chemical for easy lighting later with tinder. The sticks then burst into flame when you provided sparks or fire by some other means. So when someone tells me that matches were invented in Northern China in 577, I’ll say, “define Match.”

[@Certninja11]

@@rickkcir2151 The implied definition of "match" in this instance would be one used to light cigarettes. The match created by Louis Jacques Thénard (Chancel), while not common place, was used to light cigarettes. It was not stated in the original fact whether the match was "strike-able" or "self-igniting". Therefore the first match that was used to light cigarettes was created in 1805. A correct fact would have been: "The cigarette lighter was invented before the first strikable match" A minor, but important distinction.

[@dariushkaramati3548]

Well. lots of hints missed I think. (although I still liked the video) Nox 1: is a Root + Cripple. (not just root) Nox 3: can deal dmg 2 times. once when moving over enemies, once when getting out Nox Ultimate: it grants a short CC immunity. so u can for example get out of Ares ult or medusa ult or some long time root or cripple like Artemis and Neith. (CC immunity is not mentioned in the description for some reason) Also, Nox ult applies a debuff just like poisoned star (he mentioned this, but without this extra explanation). so if u see some Cthulhu or Scylla or Vamana is trying to ult u with those long time cc immune and insane dmg, just ult them. its a debuff, so it still holds even if they are cc immune.

[@derksoles5224]

The ult and passive seem a bit...uninspired. Ideas for a Nox rework? Is it necessary?

[@mimum7417]

I mean, she does have a pretty unique ult for a mage with the 40% damage reduction, which is makes her a decent support pick. I do think her passive could be reworked, it goes away to easily which makes it pretty inconsistent. I like the 12% power but I liked her old passive which gave damage mitigation instead, I wouldn’t mind if they brought it back.

[@911meltdown2]

This is actually a rework. I suggest looking at her old kit on the internet somewhere it was very unique. This kit is very good in my opinion in other game modes besides conquest. Especially whenever you can have a setup. Say assault or joust or arena when you have a khumba or Athena be able to set up a kill constantly.

[@rattamytata1970]

@@mimum7417 The old passive just gave her a manaless ability if a certain number of abilities were used around her. It had decent synergy because her main damage ability was super spammy. It was a super fast version of her current 2 with a very low cooldown but it did much less damage. The ability would do more damage if you hit your 3 which was a line super fast projectile that silenced and damaged enemy gods. She was basically a hyper poke mage that was capable of high sustained damage but lacked the instant burst required of mages.

@@911meltdown2 We're in a meta where tanks are typically stacking health and you're saying it's not "great"? Literally a good item on most burst mages.

[@burak5601]

Kriega One it’s not great because it’s expensive and give little damage to its cost. As a mage you should prioritize purchasing high damage items as much as possible. Soul Reaver’s physical equivalent Heart Seeker on the other hand, it’s an awesome item and you can see even solo laners are building it at late game because unlike SR, it has an insane amount of power/cost ratio.

[@phill3king155]

Soul reaver is good on mages that have spamming abilities (Merlin) but not as good on god like nox that only has 1 real combo

[@displacedcosmonaught8992]

He didn’t build it on Kuku mid and I was like, is this a meme? I think Thoths book is the only thing MORE important to Kuku. It’s got percent pen, big mana, and the scaling% health damage with thoths is capped quickly and make tornadoes hurt tanks just as bad as skishies.

[@displacedcosmonaught8992]

I feel she’s not appreciated as much as she should be, besides maybe Thoth and Ra, she’s one of the only mages that can make Cthulhu cry with little to know skill. You can dash thru him when he tries to drop his poop puddle on you or at least dash out it, then, because he’s channeling, you root him but stay just close to bait that overconfident calamari side dish to dash at you, right into your silence. While you back up autoing or maybe even ulting since I hits tanks so hard.
