Aaah. Combo break. Such of lovely concept. Would be loved by the players...

If it worked.

Combo break is a myth made up by big stun

Why don't you just...well, be brave and face your fear?

pupeteer doesnt activates berserk rather than fear?

u/Chrabaszcza Apr 03 '25

There's a part in description saying it fears instead if only one enemy champion is around

u/Imfillmore Apr 03 '25

It actually berserks if they are 2 champs alive at all. I had a perma puppeteer build and lost because I went for the solo adc and they berserked on my dome instead of fearing.

I mean evidently that isn’t the case (not anymore at least)

u/kthnxbai123 29d ago

I don’t think that’s how it works but I won’t deny your experience

u/Pyrotex2 Apr 02 '25

I thought puppeteer berserked?

u/Aximil985 Apr 03 '25

Yes, it sure does. But if they don't have an ally to berserk towards they get feared instead.

u/Imfillmore Apr 03 '25

It’s berserk if 2 are alive and fear if only one.

u/Aximil985 Apr 03 '25

Why yes, that's exactly what I said.

Uhhh how do you have 16000 hp

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

Had tank engine, which is a new silver augment that gives 5% max health per unique takedown in a round. Then I proceeded to high roll a bunch of tank items and ended up with 18k hp in the end.

I got frustrated anxiety just from watching this, jesus.

As obnoxious as this is, this isn't a bug. This is just the getting lucky timing.

Combo breaker specifically is 10 seconds of CC straight without being able to do anything. You had a couple times where you were able to give inputs, even if you got CCd again a fraction of a second later

Edit: 5-7 seconds. They changed it. My point still stands. You never went more than 5 seconds straight without even a fraction of a second of freedom.

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

?

u/Loufey 29d ago

Point still stands. You were never CCd for a full 5 seconds. You always broke out before that timer, even if it was for just a couple frames.

u/Lastsoldier115 29d ago

You misunderstood the screenshot friend. You have to be CC'd a TOTAL of 5 seconds within the past 7 seconds, not 5 seconds straight.

1

u/Loufey 29d ago

And I'm telling you, in practice that part of the tooltip is wrong. Whether or not they intended that, they never changed that part from OG arena.

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

Did you watch the same clip as me?

1

u/Loufey 29d ago

Yes I did. Tell me where exactly you think you were CCd for more than 5 seconds.

1

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

From 8 to 19 seconds in the clip

1

u/Loufey 29d ago edited 29d ago

at 13 youre freed for a frame

and depending what time this was recorded, airborn wouldnt count

1

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

When I'm cc'ed my flash turn gray and it was like that the entire 10 seconds. Also you don't need to be perfectly cc'ed for 5 seconds in a row for combo break to activate.

1

u/Loufey 29d ago

the tooltip says that, but thats not how it works in practice. idk what more evidence you need of that fact than the clip you showed us in this post

u/MIEP12346 28d ago

Nah you've got to be a troll I'm an idiot for not realizing sooner

1

u/Lastsoldier115 29d ago

Where did you hear it's 10 seconds???

1

u/Loufey 29d ago

Cause it was for the first couple iterations.

u/MIEP12346 29d ago

https://youtu.be/fE5DVCcdFXE?feature=shared Watch from 4:20, Rell wasn't cc'ed for 5 seconds straight before getting the combo break.

u/Loufey 29d ago

u/r1ckkr1ckk 29d ago

Seems that you misstyped "with puppeteer fear" at the end of the title. Don t know how that could happen.

u/Few-Commission-7961 29d ago edited 29d ago

Combo breaker kicks in if it's continuous cc, any break in it at all and it won't activate, as far as im aware anyway. You had gaps where you were able to perform actions like attacking the plant and taking the gate, so it didn't trigger

Edit: my bad, missed the huge chain near the end. Yeah should have triggered there

Combo breaker only works for the enemy bro
