Pocket Ult kills me

[nachincrack]

In a game where I was playing Victor, a Pocket ult me fighting, I win the fight and went to base using zipline.

While in the zipline the DoT of the ult killed me unexpectadly, wasn't it supposed to lower your health to 1 but never kill you?

No, my aura of suffering was not active and no enemy hit me during the zipline travel. No spirit burn /Toxic bullets were aplied to myself.

After testing, I discovered that Pocket ult does not stop at 1 HP if Victor's ult is up, proccing the ult and technically killing Victor (Is that the intended behaviour?)

I guess cheat deaht strong dispels it? but victor ult doesn't when it procs

I wonder if it might be intentional sense it never "technically" kills you? I agree it is rather strange though. Bumping this cause I'd love to hear an explanation I've never seen this before.

Yeah, this could be intended I dont really know, to me it seems more like a bug with the activation threshold. It should be 0HP but meaby in order to prevent a missinterpretation the Victor ult/cheat death activate on 0,5HP or something like that wich is a number that technically Pocket ult can reach since normally it wont kill you.

If it is not a bug I have to say that this interaction does not feel that good since bast mayority of players will be confident on not proccing the ult after getting afliccted and get confused like me at this point.

Hopefully some dev see this thread and give us an answer on wether it is a bug or intencional. (if intentional, meaby a note in the description of the ability should be enough to get the player to know this interaction)

No idea if its intentional, but other effects that usually can't kill you have the same behaviour with his ult.
His Aura can also only kill you when you have ult ready, same with blood tribute.
