[GAMEPLAY] Bard / Sivir interaction

I was just playing Bard and threw a Q at a Sivir close to a wall.

In the instant between my Q hitting her and my Q hitting the wall, she spell shielded. I'd imagine that this would block the stun effect from happening, but it does not? And her spell shield was still up after the stun went off.

Not sure if it's an intentional interaction, but since the damage and the stun are two different triggers, I thought it may possibly be a bug.

Sivir's spell shield doesn't destroy abilities, just merely drops the immediate effects of it. For example it can block one bounce of Fiddlesticks E, but it can still bounce to other targets and even hit Sivir again to damage and silence her.

Bard Q acts in the same way. She doesn't take any damage and isn't slowed, but the game still registers that she was hit by an ability and sincs Sivir can only block one hit from one spell she is liable to be affected by the second part of Bard Q.
