[GAMEPLAY] Talon E Bug

So to begin with, I unfortunately don't know how to replicate the bug, as its triggering is inconsistent but I will do my best to explain it in detail. I apologize though, since I know this makes solving the problem more difficult.

So Talon's E has three outcomes when used, two of which are intended, and the last I assume is a bug:

  1. Actually crossing the wall selected in the direction clicked.
  2. If the distance to travel is too large, for Talon to skirt the side of the wall he selected. Effectively wall running without crossing to the other side of the wall selected.
  3. Randomly, and most often replicated by me when flipping over towers while traveling to lane, just backflipping in place, effectively cc'ing himself and gaining no distance in the process, but still placing the wall on cooldown and looking like a flipping dumbass.

Since there's no real gameplay benefit to staying in the exact same spot while using a movement ability, I have been laboring under the assumption that number 3 is a bug.

It most often occurs, in my experience, with thin walls, such as the towers I mentioned, or the outcroppings around baron and dragon. I think it may be caused be the player clicking on the near side of the wall in pressing E, and since these walls specifically are so thin, it registers as you trying to wall run... in place, more or less. But in all honesty I'm not sure. It happens relatively often though, at least twice a match, and has caused my death, or a loss of a kill, enough times for me to want to bring it to your attention.

Thank you for your time.

I have noticed the same issue, and it seems to be becoming more common. but that might just be more so because he is my main
