Bard R remove nexus turrets invulnerability [GAMEPLAY]

Warlek··36 votes·1,787 views

I was playing ARAM today when something suprised me, Bard ulted our nexus turrets a few seconds before our inhibitor respawned and the effected lasted until a little after the inhibitor respawned. Usually, the nexus turrets would have been invulnerable with the inhibitor up and running, but they were still vulnerable. So was our nexus while the inhibitor was still being destroyed.

why?

Once is enough... repeatable and copy this method is not acceptable and unfair.

Riot has stated in the past (i dont know if its current as the last time I saw this was a few years ago) to abuse bugs that are not exploits so that they have a better chance of getting noticed and fixed.

This has been a bug for a few months actually. I remember seeing a video on youtube about it. Surprised its taken this long to pop up on the boards.

EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76iHi7lVWtQ . So this has been known about since May of last year...

because it's riot's job to make sure that didn't happen. Anything that's possible in the core game that can be used should be allowed to be used. If riot doesn't want this interaction then they need to fix it. Until then this is a play a bard player can make that requires him/her to time it just right.

This bug has been around for a quite few patches now, at the minimum. If something is supposed to become invulnerable, by either a nexus being destroyed and a Bard ult/Zhonyas or an Inhib respawing, as your video shows, they won't gain the invulnerability, leading to them being vulnerable (No really, right?). Vandrill did a video on this a while ago.

Any state change that occurs while something is invulnerable doesn't pass.

IE: you can walk into the enemy spawn if you queue a movement order, zhonya as your team destroys nexus, then after it wears off you walk in, even though when the nexus dies normally all commands are canceled.

So I'd imagine its the same here.
