Lol , I have to hope I can persuade my parents to get me the 6 Gb version . It ' s supposed to be a Christmas present . <| sep |> You can definitely miss with unit targeted Earthspikes if they ' re ~~ moving away from you and you walk into range with higher movespeed ~~ Moving perpendicularly to the spike . Dependent on their movespeed and such , but it ' s def not 100 %. EDIT Since someone questioned me on this , I went ahead and tested my theoryobservation myself , and I am correct . Earthspike appears to anticipate unit movements , so if you move erratically or change direction perpendicularly to the spike as lion casts the spell , it will miss 100 % of the time if you have enough movespeed to escape the 125 radius . Here ' s the proof .
