[GAMEPLAY] Brand Ult Bug

PhaseBeats·Jan 30, 2016·7 votes·1,300 views

In a game where I was against a Brand he ulted me and for some reason the ult did not bounce on anything. I believe this happened a couple times in the game though it did bounce at certain points in the game.

All he did was throw his ult on me and it disappeared. >.>

I have reported this here. The ultimate won't bounce, if only one enemy champion is near you and is under blaze. The ultimate will bounce, if the enemy champion is not under blaze. Or if there are two enemy champions, here it doesn't matter then if a enemy champion is under blaze or not.

I have had this bug too. Sometimes the ult casts, sometimes it does not.

It works like this: When target is ablaze, the next bounce is prioritized for champions. But due to the bug it doesn't only prioritize, it will ONLY bounce to champs.

When you burst a single champion, then ult, it will not bounce to the nearby minions. When you ult a single champion without setting it ablaze first, then the ult will bounce to the nearby minions. When you have multiple champions and they are ablaze, the ult will bounce between champions.

I hope rito takes notice of the bug soon.

Ya, my brother and I were playing a game, and this was happening the whole game to him.

Would you be surprised if I told you that's not even new?

Because, uh... it's uh... it's not even new...

Not saying that to belittle the post and its legitimacy, just pointing out that this still exists and has existed for at least over a year.

Well, I would figure that this isn't anything new. ;p Just if it seems it is more pronounced this patch hopefully this can be fixed!

It started becoming more common when they tried to fix the coding so it wouldn't "fizzle" just because somebody Zhonya's'd or went untargetable during the cast, so it'd keep bouncing to other targets. Instead it'd sometimes hit people and then just wouldn't bounce at all. Which then I think was something they said they fixed and turns out made it worse because I've seen it happen 5 or 6 times within the past couple weeks in ranked matches (and Brand's actually not played as often as you'd think, at least compared to goddamn Lee Sin).
