[Gameplay] Skillshot Perspective Problems

This bug itself has become a huge pain in my ass. I play primarily skillshot based champions and when things like this happen, it's infuriating and toxic. The issue is that skillshots will appear to land but not register at all on their targets. Apparently, other players witness the skillshot as a miss, which must be true, but when we see that it lands and seems to do nothing, it's certainly a pain. There's no way that I have found to regularly duplicate the effects; it just sort of happens.

At 3:25, in this Sp4zie video, he demonstrates an Ashe ultimate that CLEARLY hits it's mark on his screen, but appears to pass straight over the target. It's this exact bug that I've been experiencing with champs like Ahri and Lux, who are heavily skillshot reliant. The issue occurs once every two or three games and, when it happens with a game changing skillshot like a Lux ult or an Ahri charm, it becomes a massive problem.

I get this quite a bit with blitzcrank.

Sometimes his fist will barely touch someone, and pull them.

Othertimes his fist will disappear into their body, with the knuckles coming out the other side... and it'll miss.

Extremely infuriating. Rito pls.

Is this a problem on quickcast only? Like... If you think you're aiming it on top of someone and then it actually goes in between them... Like, that's a problem with the aiming in addition to the display, right?

This is maybe fixed by now. I remember Riot saying something about this. I can't quote it for sure, but if what I'm thinking is right this goes for Lee sin's Q, Janna's q, along with Ashe's ulti like you've mentioned.

Dead angles are best angles!
