[GAMEPLAY] On Tahm Kench, can't devour Kog'Maw?

Varz·Sep 7, 2016·5 votes·961 views

So, I was playing as Tahm Kench support with a buddy who was playing as Kog'Maw. At some point I noticed I could not use my W - Devour on him. It worked on any other player, be it friend or foe, but him specifically - it was a no-go. This lasted the entire game.

As to recreating the situation - there's nothing to it, really.

Try to cast W - Devour on Kog'Maw
Nothing happens
Feel like a terrible support for not doing that one thing you're supposed to do (I had one job...)

The only difference (that I can think of) between Kog'Maw and the rest of the players was that I was premade with him.

Thanks! SurfingBird

What skins were you using what gsme mode? Do you remember any items bought etc.

Usually bugs are caused by random spaghetti code so any random information you may have might help them track down this issue.

Thanks for bringing it up

As another check, did you only attempt to devour while he was using his W? Tahm's Devour might be considering Kog's double AS ability as a change due to spaghetti code and preventing it.

Tried both with and without Kog's W. Nothing.

It was worth checking, sounds like spaghetti code got through though, feels bad.

We were both using the classic skins.

As for items bought, Kog started with Wit's End as his first item, and I was building Aegis. That may just be it though, because now I remember that I could devour him at the beginning of the game, and the bug started around the time he finished building his Wit's End.
