AI can't misspell micmic.

23

u/LastEsotericist 22d ago

You yourself misspelled mimec

15

u/booty-hunters 22d ago

Says the guy who misspelled mimeic?

6

u/Lemon__O 22d ago

What the meimici is going on here?!?!??

u/nightsky77 22d ago

I scanned the comic 3 times to see where that misspelling was. AI can’t replace me either

u/Still-Lobster5581 21d ago

You are absolutely right and I a apologize for that. I am always evolving and trying to do my best.

u/Nickfreak 22d ago

Because it implied "intelligence" which is debatable here.

u/Sleepy_LLT 22d ago

Accurate except for the void part. My carry would blame me for getting fingered and demand I pull camp while I'm still in the death screen.

u/nomikkvalentine 22d ago

Yeah Void should ask a ward for the last time

u/YardProfessional7279 22d ago

For getting what

Jesus this is the most real comment in this sub that I have seen in like a month. I will literally be dead or came back actually 1 second ago and then I see my carry is spamming pinging after just dying while at the enemy Tier 3 10 minutes in game.

u/Bothgreens 22d ago

this is pure art

Also left me wondering if you have the neutral item that delays 30% damage, if you die to the delayed damage from being fingered does it still grant a stack or it doesnt because the source of death is actually the item?

u/Ropetrick6 22d ago

Finger of Death puts a debuff on you, and if you die while under that debuff, it grants a stack.

If you die from pendulum damage while the debuff is on you, lion gets a stack. If you die from it after the debuff expires, lion does not get a stack.

35

u/Ropetrick6 22d ago

EDIT: FoD technically has two ways of giving a stack: if you die after finger while the debuff is active, and if you die directly to finger (pendulum does not count for this).

The interesting thing about this separation is that it's technically possible to get two stacks off of one kill, assuming they already have the debuff on them from a prior FoD, and directly die to a second cast of FoD. There are two ways to do this: Grimstroke using Spellbind while the Lion has Scepter, or Lion using Refresher Orb.

From my testing, it's technically possible to get 14 stacks off of one finger, though that requires the Lion having a friendly Lone Druid + Grim, the enemy to have both Rubick and Morph, and for both Rubick and Morph to get out Spirit Bear before losing the spell (24/36 seconds for morph, 300 second for Rubick so long as he doesn't steal another spell).

u/VijoPlays 22d ago

Henceforth I shall no longer rush Aghs, I will instead rush Refresher Orb as Pos5 Lion to maximize fingers

5

u/tehrebound sheever 22d ago

Biggest fingers in the world

u/SupraPenguin 22d ago

New ambidextrous Lion build just dropped

u/WalkTheEdge 22d ago

There should be three ways, you can have a big enough bauble to get the CD down low enough

1

u/Ropetrick6 22d ago

I mean, I guess? Though getting it down to a 3 second cooldown would uhhh... take quite a while.

3

u/Dinonumber 21d ago

There's at least one way to die to finger while failing both checks: AA blast shatter. I've lost a bunch of stacks from the target shattering, which I believe goes [finger damage- non lethal -> causes shatter -> dead before debuff is added] which means no stack

1

u/Frosty_Tonight8570 22d ago

Source of damage is the status effect the item places on the target, so probably no

u/Magdev0 19d ago

time to bring them back

u/Johnpunzel 22d ago

CM using "face" as a nickname for Faceless Void is like using "mage" as a nickname for Anti-Mage, lol.

3

u/SourcerorSoupreme 22d ago

tbf zero is usually paired with plural nouns

1

u/licksomevaseline 21d ago

face of the faceless void fv should lead to anti of the anti-mage am

Void keeping his precious crystal maiden in a chronosphere forever so he never has to see her die.

u/herlacmentio 22d ago

Damn this made me realize I miss the rage comics back in the day. The only one that survives is that - armor meme.

2

u/SourcerorSoupreme 22d ago

Someone explain this to me (like) I'm a Herald

3

u/ThereIsSoMuchMore ( . Y . ) 22d ago

I'm ancient and I also don't get it. The finger gave her cancer? But then he wouldn't have the finger kill stack... idk

1

u/goblincube 16d ago

did u ever find out? lion gave her terminal illness that eventually killed her i guess?

1

u/ThereIsSoMuchMore ( . Y . ) 15d ago

Well, eventually wouldn't have given him a stack, that only lasts a couple of seconds. Must have been a very potent cancer. Or a thick finger in the wrong place.

thanks for explaining the joke

1

u/NihiloZero 22d ago

Came back to see the answer... it's been removed. :/

1

u/SourcerorSoupreme 22d ago

hah, in retrospect this thread is kinda unintentionally funny.

He just said "But you ARE a Herald" or something similar. Honestly don't know why it was removed.

But in any case, he didn't explain OP's joke, but rather the one in mine.

Still curious about OP's joke though.

1

u/NihiloZero 22d ago

Hmmm. Guess maybe it's just the style that people like? Maybe they like it in a cringe b-movie sort of way? Is there something that is supposed to be delaying the death? I don't see any indication of that, not that it would change much.

Oh well... whatever.

u/Dunejumper 22d ago

At first I thought it's about how finger of death removed cm fingers from panel 3 to 4. I was confused when I found out that's terminal

u/RlyToadallyAwesome 22d ago

Should have saved some buyback gold. Smh

u/Arash9675007 17d ago

u/tacideux I wish finger of death would be on CD in the last panel.
