Nidalee and Kassadin E bug?

Yugi OHHHHHHHHHH·10/12/2014, 8:05:27 PM·10 votes·7,292 views

So i guess this happened after the 4.18 patch but Nidalee and Kassadin seem to both have a bug with their E ability. I verified in both custom and normals games that this happens and my friend can vouch for it as well. I dont know if anyone else has noticed it or not.

Nidalee : In cougar form, when using her swipe ability, instead of swiping towards the direction of your mouse, Nidalee turns and swipes towards the direction of the nexus. This only happens however if you are currently moving and pressing E. If she stands still, the ability works normally following the direction of your cursor.

Kassadin : Kassadin's bug only happens once you use R and if your E is on smartcast. Once you R and then immediately press E, Kassadin automatically shoots it towards the direction of the nexus.

Note that, these cant be fixed by simply putting your cursor to the opposite side. The bug seems to only activate backwards.

This occurs with any flash like ability or flash even, and any cone aoe.

i had it happened when I used summoner 4 as Darius and tried to use his E to drag enemies in, only to see his E cast behind him. I would've very likely gotten a kill but now i will never know, since this bug is back. I remember it most often with Kassadin , as this was a frequent problem with him, in the past. Im sure the bug can be replicated with Annie and summoner 4 even.

Here is a video that I made documenting these bugs. Both with Nidalee and Kassadin.

I have attached my r3d log for the Kassadin game, I would have attached the Nidalee game log too, but the forum seems to not let me attach two files. If you want that I can attach that too in another post.

Also, to clarify, as seen in my video, the skill Swipe or Force Pulse don't shoot toward the nexus, but back toward the originating location of the champion model.

Just tested out the kassadin bug my self, had it keep happening to me in an aram and it's very frustrating. Every time I R and then E, it always goes behind me no matter where my mouse is.

Please add Cassiopeia to this list. Whenever you summoner 4 + Ult, Cass will turn back to nexus and fail the whole thing. As someone mentioned with Nidalee's E, probably this bug happens when cass is moving as well, since one of the flashes i waited till it was over and i could see cass standing on the flash and then ulted to not fail it but it did the same thing, probablly cuz she started chasing the enemy brand.

It was sad. item 3151

Yeah, I just played Nidalee and had the same problem. It's a real pain when playing AP Nidalee and you can't hit a Swipe to save your life.

Same thing with E as well. The animation this time still goes forward but the actual damage cone gets reversed Just like Nidalee & Kassadin .

This is also an issue with Khazix when using leap (E) and then void spikes (W). Void spikes will fire in the opposite direction.

When is this bug going to be fixed because its impacting my game-play a lot I can't play Top Lane because my champions are bugged, and so I am forced into Mid/Bot Lane, I get someone in 90% of my games who calls mid, and random locks for bot lane which make no sense so I can't bot lane and so it results in more games which the Meta has to be broken then players getting toxic.

Having a Top Lane role I could play always helped out when players immediately called mid but this bug is annoying as hell.

I concur, same issue with Darius. My brother and I played Darius , every time he used summoner 4 & Darius [Apprehend] it would use the ability towards the original location of the champion.

This affects champion viability and seems to happen to any champion that can recreate this circumstance. If needed, I can send game logs and videos of as many champions I can reproduce this with. Please e-mail me if that is necessary. I would like to see this resolved as quickly as possible.
