Shen Q bug report

Gameplay Issue, Shen Q does not apply properly

I played Shen jungle and i noticed that his Q will apply neither animation of pulled glowing sword nor damage as it is supposed to if Shen hasn't moved from the place from previously used Q. I don't know if this was intended or not, but in the spell description, there is nothing that says otherwise. Since I play Shen all the time, I can say with certainty that this is new and wasn't happening before.

It is fairly easy to recreate situation >> Stand still in the place and use Q (it will apply animation and bonuses), after using Q don't move and wait for Q cooldown. Use Q again and since spirit sword is already on the place where it is supposed to be it won't move, but this will cause bonuses not to be applied and Shen will continue to attack with his dagger instead pulling out the sword.

Why is this important? As Shen in jungle, you want to keep an eye on what is happening on other lanes so you can create an opportunity for a good fight with your R, moving before using Q again will cause you to miss that split second that might be necessary. Previously I used to stand in place attacking jungle camp with an auto attack while watching other lanes and occasionally using Q and W without the need to switch the screen back to my champ. Now that is not possible

Edit>> I also found out that q does not activate if you use it after teleporting without moving previously.

Thanks in Advance!

Finally someone who talked about that. I'm shen OTP and i can confirm what this guy said. It is not nice to pull your q and get no empowered aa and also u can't get energy back from aa bcs q didn't procd. There is an other bug on his W, w won't reduce his passive cd when you or an ally dodge correctly. These are pretty annoying bugs that reduces his outplay potential so much considering w has long cd and a short duration. Hope riot fix this.
