[Gameplay] Garen's Q plus static shiv can cause weird double hit

Whenever I play my full movement speed Garen build, a fun bug pops up which isn't game breaking but can cause some damages to not apply immediately or at all.

When you use your q and have static shiv up Garen will run towards an enemy and the static shiv will apply immediately when the animation for the q starts. If the animation doesn't finish, the only damage that applies is the bonus damage from the shiv and you lose your shiv passive build up.

steps to recreate:

  1. Buy shiv on Garen
  2. Use Q and walk towards minions
  3. Cancel Q animation

Note: I have only done it on Howling Abyss so it may not be the same for summoners rift

Thanks!

PS: I need like 16 rp for another snowdown bundle wink wink nudge nudge

This bug exists since preseason 6. We have told riot about this bug multiple times, but they keep ignoring the feedback. This bug is also gamebreaking, because crit garen is a viable play style.
