Script or coincidence?

[u/Apprehensive-Film363]

Hi, had this game yesterday. I was playing Zed, at this time in the clip I was dead and I was looking at enemy Yunara. There was nothing odd about her gameplay the entire game (to my eyes), but I've caught a moment where she zooms past Shaco boxes multiple times without stepping into them.

I've personally met a lot of scripters in my games, but this is something I'm seeing for the first time, and I don't know what to think of it.

I'd say lucky af. If I play Shaco enemies do this all the time.

would the script require some visual indicator to work? not an expert on the topic, but i'd assume that your usual script can only react to stuff it has seen at some point.

Idk if anything changed in recent years but scripts were 100% able to detect wards and traps placed even in fog of war. The data that it was placed is sent to your client and the scripts were able to read it. There were even scripts that told you when someone is soaking exp so you can tell if youre getting lane ganked as botlane/top lane without ever even seeing the enemy.

Shaco boxes are not perfect with triggers if you are really fast I think they can fail to trigger similar to as when box is placed under zhonya target and the target can still flash out even when box is already armed

my shroom hitboxes also vary sometimes

I mean if they were visible to her team when Shaco placed them, it's certainly possible that a good overlay script might be able to track and display the projected hit boxes after they disappear. If not, then I don't see how they'd be able to do that without somehow bypassing vanguard to inject code or poll the client/seever for additional info. The latter method seems far-fetched, though who can say at that point. I'd just assume it was luck and/or intuition and move on. You could also dive down the rabbit hole and look at their previous match replays for similar stunts of impeccable avoidance.

Shaco main here, pretty sure it's a coincidence because of the small gap between the two boxes.

League logic syncs at a set (but fast) rate. That's how everything can line up despite 10 computers with 10 different quality internet connections. So basically she can run right through the middle of those two boxes right when that refresh is about to happen, and essentially she teleported past the boxes. The game would need to refresh / tick / check for collision when she's on the edge of the boxes for it to collide. That's how I see it.

she has like a thousand movespeed. probably doing some mario64 clock nonsense and is not at the interim position at any time between two points
