[GAMEPLAY] recall interrupt with Bloodthirster shield

Not sure if this is a bug or intended behavior. Basically should a bloodthirster shield protect you from being interrupted when attacked while recalling? If it does protect you from being interrupted than this is not a bug (I was just unaware of this behavior).

Basically the enemy base was being decimated by our Trundle, I got baron, but we lost the fight. They were all trying to recall and I used my Q as Nocturne to stop them all. The enemy Tristana was clearly hit (you see the red tick on her health bar), she gets the duskbringer debuff applied, but still finishes the recall 2 seconds later.

Pics or it didn't happen: Screen03 - Fizz and Tristana recalling. Me (Nocturne) using Duskbringer Screen04 - The Duskbringer connecting and Fizz getting interrupted. Note the red chunk on Tristana's HP bar Screen08 - A few seconds later Tristana completes the recall. Note in the bottom left that the Duskbringer debuff is still applied

It didn't effect the game and we won a few seconds later. I am just curious if this is intended or not.

Thanks, ~David

I don't know if this is actually intended by Riot, but the way recalls work is you have to actually make them lose health if you want to stop the recall. If they have a shield, you have to deal enough damage to break through the shield.

Like I said, I don't know for sure if Riot actually intended it like this, but that's how it works.
