League of Legends, Mordekaiser's ultimate...60% of my health gone with one attack? Fuck off!
The problem with this is you can quicksilver it away.

I think you might be thinking Karthus there. Morde's ult does barely 500 damage.

Though Veigar can one-shot squishy characters if he's farmed enough.

Pure AP Morde can hit up to 80% of the opponents health with his ult, it is really op actually.


OT: 100,000 Needles from Cactaur King or the Tonberry's Knife
Same to you. QSS ftw.

OT: I agree with the guy who mentioned Malzahars Null Zone. Failing that I would go with the Drain Health spells.

The Disintegrate Spell from Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. Kills every thing (with the exception of the last boss) in one hit.
heheheh ninja'd.
Too bad it can erase their inventories from existence as well...
Yeah that was the downside to that spell, it didn't let you loot the body afterwords. Which is why, except for a few fire elementals, I only used it on the Bane of Kree because he pissed me off. I was apparently too "good" for him.

OT: The Alchemist's spell from Torchlight that Yahtzee referred to as "Giant Laser Beam Face Melty Death." I can't remember what it's actually called, I haven't played Torchlight in awhile.

Scarab Gun from Halo 2.

A great example of how Bungie makes brilliant easter eggs, and how ridcoulsy powerful video game weapons can be.

A couple of fighting game bosses come to mind. First of all Jinpachi Mishima from tekken 5, his most basic of combos could drain so much health and on top of that he had a demon laser beam that came out his stomach that could destroy half of your health and it's really hard to dodge (pretty sure you cant block it). Also Shoa khan from mk9, he constantly spams his charge attack and it does so much damage and don't even get me started on his hammer throw which cant be blocked and stuns you and he will usually throw another one to stun you again and finally throw a spear(or another charge). But I can't complain much, his hammer throw is easy to jump over and he's slow as heck. When you jump over him, he's still facing the other direction executing his move and you can hit him with a strong attack like an upper cut or a hard hitting special move.

mirabelle in jade empire.

seriously, that thing was like bringing a death star to a knife fight.
Damage was astronomical, but so was the loading time, and you were pretty much a sitting duck. But in terms of power, you're absolutely right.

It still does 40% of their health right of the bat so QSS only get rids of the rest of the damage.

OT: Ballistic Fist from Fallout: NV, one shot everything with 100 unarmed

The Eyelander + Targe 'n' Charge.



A critical hit (which, a good player can do easy with the Targe) can inflict a wopping 195 damage, enough to instakill close to every class at full health. Plus, the head gained from the kill makes the Demoknight faster and harder to kill.

true, but with a simple button combination right after you fired the shot (switching to certain other combat styles and switching back to mirabelle) you could reset the loading/cooldown animation and thus fire about 2-3 shots a second. of course you needed the boosted focus to support the large drain of that thing, but it wasn't really a problem.

In order



#3: Lu Bu's Square Square Triangle (Dynasty Warriors 4) This is not a "might" kill you. This is a "will" kill you. Lift you up, and chop off all your life. And it's unblockable.
Huh I guess they actually reused that combo for Epyon in Dynasty Warriors Gundam:2 cuase it's the same thing:2 hits a piercing jab (that can't be blocked) picks you up and throws you on the ground a few steps away.

Air Blade in Prototype
What, not the Extendo-Tentacle? Or just Alex's fists? He can punch tanks until they explode, remember.
The air-blade one-shots hunters, tanks and helicopters and it does massive damage to everything stronger than them.
