I'm recently picking yasuo back up and I don't know if riot changed the way wind wall mechanics worked during recent nerf changes. But in recent games there would be frequent occasions once i cast my wind wall the current spell against me would go straight through it. An example from last game i was against a tf as yasuo once i would see that tf had his stun card up for me i would letting him think i was playing into his hands by dashing up to him. Once i was in his auto range for him to throw his stun card at me i tossed up my wind wall and his stun card went straight through it. I thought once the wind wall was summoned it would block all incoming ranged projectiles. I've noticed this before you reworked trist I thought to myself someone probably already posted about this or riot already knows about this bug. But in the era of the mid lane tristana i would throw up my wind wall (Knowing how slow the buster shot moves) and the buster shot would go straight through my wind wall. As a yasuo player when it comes down to those clutch plays that include your wind wall the result can be quite annoying >.< (that mechanic/bug ended up costing me my lane to tf allowing him to snow ball) i could be 500 hp and he be 200 would pop wind wall and still get hit by his stun card spelling out my death. Lastly, what i noticed is that this bug doesn't really occur against larger spells like jinx ult or ezreal ult i could pop wind wall a second before it's able to hit me and it would be perfectly fine.

This bug has existed since release.

Essentially, due to latency and buggy code, if you cast wind wall while a point and click projectile is in mid air, it might pass through the wall. The closer the projectile is, the more likely it will pass through.

Generally, I've learned to just walk a bit back before casting Wind Wall or just do it earlier.

This applies to all point and click abilities, including Kat's and Akali's Qs. Don't take any chances, just cast the wall early.

We need this bug to be fixed because it does cost players their lane, I'm a Yasuo player as well and this bug has been happening more frequently now. I lose my lane or I get caught in team fights quickly because of this bug.
