Base Damage and Combat Performance

To analyze their combat performance, let’s consider the skills in a direct confrontation without any items or external factors influencing the battle.

1. Damage Computation:

   • LUKAS (Base Attack: assumed around 100):

     • Flash Combo:
       • Stun (1 stack): 300 + 120% (120) = 420 damage
       • Additional damage from subsequent hits (3 hits of 100 + 50% (50) = 150 per hit) = 450 damage.
       • Total = 420 + 450 = 870 damage.
     • Unleash the Beast:
       • Initial hit: 300 + 100% (100) = 400 damage.
       • Aftershocks: 3 hits of 80 + 25% (25) = 105 per hit = 315 damage.
       • Total = 400 + 315 = 715 damage.

   • YI SUN-SHIN (Base Attack: assumed around 100):

     • Traceless Mobility: 150 + 40% (40) = 190 damage.
     • Blood Floods (Hold):
       • Damage can scale up to 200% with a decay but, assuming a hold of moderate time: 240 + 80% (80) = 320 damage.
     • Mountain Shocker:
       • Each wave: 150 + 50% (50) = 200 damage. 3 waves = 600 damage.

2. Total Damage Output in 1v1:

   • LUKAS: 870 (Flash Combo) + 715 (Unleash the Beast) = 1585 damage.
   • YI SUN-SHIN: 190 (Traceless Mobility) + 320 (Blood Floods) + 600 (Mountain Shocker) = 1110 damage.

Who Would Prevail?

From the calculations above, LUKAS clearly holds an advantage in damage output with a total of 1585 damage compared to YI SUN-SHIN's 1110 damage. Additionally, LUKAS’s crowd control through stuns and mobility makes him difficult for YI SUN-SHIN to engage effectively, especially with the ability to reposition quickly and deal burst damage.
