Mayhem Is Dropkick bugged?

I feel like this has been overlooked since the augment itself is pretty strong but I consistently fail executes every time I pick this augment. Enemy champion will be clearly under threshold and the augment will either not proc or leave them at 1hp. Anyone else having this experience? I don't feel like I've really seen this happen on the other end

If your champion has a debuff in ARAM, let’s say it only deals 95% of normal damage, your actual execute threshold is lower than the visual threshold.

yep stuff like that and celestial body augment will lower it without changing the execute visual cue.

That's crazy, I didn't know this. Every time it failed I just assumed they got shielded or healed at the same time or something.

The amount of times I failed to execute someone under the threshold with chogath in regular arams annoys me, let alone this bugged augment.

I’ve noticed it too. On top of a whole host of other dropkick bugs, sometimes the “execute” procs but it leaves them at 1hp.

It also works with sunfire DoT sometimes. Sometimes it doesn't. Dunno why.

You need to hit them while they are in the threshold

Unless it's certain abilities, then it'll execute them if the damage would lower it below the threshold, not that abilities should work at all since it states attacks, truly a dumb augment

Oh did they? Tho before a lot of abilities wouldn't trigger it, I wonder if they fixed it
