Jhins W causes the opposite teams game to freeze[GAMEBREAKING]

If Jhin is in the Fog of War(meaning that the enemy team has no vision of him) and uses his W ability and hits an enemy champion, everyone from the team or just some members of it get a game freeze. The game remains frozen until a client or system restart.

Some important links(I guess match history and replays are also useful):

Youtube: 1 and 2.
Match History: Game 1. The time it occurred in game is 26:32. Game 2. The time it occurred in this one is 32:49.

Please at least disable him, this is seriously gamebreaking and actually made me lose a Ranked game.

it's clearly a new feature and not a bug cuz rito wants jhin back in meta along with ezreal after the 3 months of item 3504 hell kappa

This is pretty much confirmed. Just happened in my game. https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2649078112/47867375?tab=overview. All of us were bot side and about to fight and Jhin casts his W while in fog of war and bam all of us on blue side freeze. Had to ctrl+alt+delete blindly to close it - it would not minimize. Another video that shows the bug (first ten seconds is when it occurs). The last moment of connectivity seems to be right after Karma casts her R during Jhin W. From what I know only two of us were queued together - it was NOT an internet outage. Here is a link to a reddit comment describing the exact thing. He is absolutely broken and needs to be disabled.

I can confirm.

I thought it was a DDoS attack, but I've seen a lot of people experience the same thing. The only time I disconnected was right when Jhin came to gank me mid and (from the fog) fired his long range poke/root ability. That's the moment that the game froze and I needed to restart it. A lot of my teammates disconnected numerous times, none on the enemy team ever did.

Link to the match if there is a way to get the replay - let me know: https://matchhistory.euw.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/EUW1/3422146142/22667642?tab=overview

Yes this also happened to me twice in one game. First time it only dropped our Velkoz and our Udyr , but then it ended up dropping our whole team later on.

Umm, this is not a bug?

It's a promotional buff for his upcoming skin where he's a corrupted AI that freezes every computer on the rift.
