[Gameplay] Malphite Q activates before projectile touches

I was playing a game as Malphite vs Riven top; during our duel she was at 50 HP and was running away, however I've casted my Q on her. My Q rolled half-way towards her and suddenly disappeared with her dying. I don't think it was any kind of lag as the whole game was smooth at 50 ping never hitting above 60 ping. I don't think it's a big bug as Malphite Q is a targeted ability so it would hit anyways but having the animation being slower than the damage input would confuse people with windwalls / shield ability.

A lot of (most/all?) targeted projectiles can do damage before they visually hit. It happens when the target moves a significant distance before the visual projectile hits.
