[GAMEPLAY] Malzahar's R and E bugged, go on cooldown but do nothing

Just had a match with Malz; while the E bug has been an issue for me for quite some time, the R issue is new with the most recent patch.

First, if you cast E too close to a minion's death, the ability goes on cooldown but does not apply itself to said minion. This has been happening to me for as long as I remember. To replicate, just cast E when the minion is seriously close to dying. Like really, really close. It's not happening ALWAYS, but frequently enough to notice. I'd say at least twice a day over maybe five different matches total for the day. Sometimes more or less.

Today R seems to have gotten the same type of problem. I cast it, nothing happens, and it goes on cooldown. Victim did NOT have Banshee's. At least twice in the same game. No void pool, nothing. I will attempt to record both issues and report back here.

edit 12/7: E example

To save you some time in the future when it does have again.. You can save a replay of the last few matches you've played directly in the client. Go to your match history and click the button on the right of the match you want to save and you should be able to watch it. It will be saved to your replay folder. ("harddrive":\Users"user"\Documents\League of Legends\Replays)

You can use a free video recording software to record parts of the replay you want to keep. After that, the file you save should be fairly large. At least in my case the initial files are huge, so I use a video converter to extremely compress the file without losing quality. After that, I can clip many files together into one file. I assume once you're done making that final file you can convert that file too, to compress even further.

I can confirm the failure of Maleficent Visions near a minion's death and infact, reported this as a bug as well.
