[GAMEPLAY] A bug where Lulu does not get the kill when she autos

I saw this video and i do realise it is in Korean. I am sure someone at Riot can translate what they are saying but i will write out what it is just in case. In the short replay clip at the start the Player had shielded another champion then proceeded to focus the Lee Sin who was nowhere near other allies. He then autos Lee Sin and kills her in excitement only to see the kill go to Irelia.

He reproduces the bug in an experimet that follows the short clip. The following are the steps he took to reproduce the bug: 1. Place pix on a faraway ally (Annie) 2. Auto attack the enemy (Kalista) Here you can see that the kill goes to Annie when clearly it should've been Lulu that got the kill. He then proceeds to try to reproduce the bug which he successfully does. You can see even though pix has returned to Lulu, Annie will still be granted the kill.

He then takes a guess in yellow text that the bug may have originated from a "Hecarim" patch where pix will "mechanically" stay on an ally for a set duration and thus all pix bolts fired from lulu in that short duration will be counted as being shot from the ally, no matter how far away they are.

I know this isn't a huge bug but i really like Lulu and cane across the bug myself which encouraged me to seek out other instances of the bug which led me to this video.

It would be appreciated if you could recognises this bug and fix it. Thanks Riot!

*Edit Notes (had Irelia and Lee Sin mixed up)

I'm a Korean (but no, I'm not in Challenger). He's basically saying stuff like "let's try this," or "that's weird."

Only important line is at 1:48, where he says "Kalista is too low, my basic attack will kill her" (instead of pix bolts) But since I have time, I'll just write a transcript for everyone's sake.

0:04 "So I guess we can end this now" /Sub: Hi, this is Siog. 0:07 "And..." /Sub: I felt like I should explain about this bug that I posted before more. 0:11 "You're my kill!" /Sub: So I prepared a video with the same conditions. 0:12 "Wait, what?" 0:15 "What..?"

0:16 Experiment conditions/Lulu E/1 Ally/1 Enemy

0:23 "When I put the shield on you, move out of range, please." 0:28 "Stand somewhere over here." 0:35 "So when I put the shield on you, just move out." 0:40 "I'll hit her a bit more." 0:49 "Will she die if I hit her again?" 0:53 "Okay, just that much." 0:57 "Okay, let's do this." 1:10 "So, I proved that this bug works." 1:15 "Annie didn't have to hit her, but it's still Annie's kill." 1:20 "Wow, that worked."

1:22 After Hecarim patch, I suspect when Lulu casts her E on an ally, Pix's attack is considered the ally's attack over the duration of E. 1:28 Let's try it again.

1:38 "So, let's try this once more." 1:48 "Wait, this is not supposed to happen." 1:52 "She'll die from my basic attack." 1:56 "Let's wait a bit." 2:00 "Let's wait a bit and try again." 2:13 "Wow, that's strange."

2:18 Video is over. Thanks for watching. 2:22 People who participated in this experiment/좋아하는우리사이님/토야씌님/Thanks for participating in the experiment.
