[Gameplay] Tahm Kench - Q-W-W on minions results in no damage/projectile if rapidly used

Tahm Kench's Q-W-W on a minion is supposed to devour said minion hit with Tongue Lash and then spit it out as a projectile that does AoE damage and a slow. When this combo is used rapidly, for burst poke, the Devoured minion is ejected directly under Tahm Kench with no extra damage taken from either ability.

How to reproduce bug:

  1. Use Tongue Lash on a minion
  2. Before Tongue Lash connects, use Devour
  3. Before fully devoured, or immediately after Devour, use Devour again Current fix: Wait ~.5-1 second between animation completing and using Devour again to negate bug

This happened 100% of the time I tried in my game. Item selection made no difference. There were no other issues that were reported in other posts (i.e. unable to kill said minion afterwards)

I'm finding that W on minions is just bugged in general. There will be times I can Devour normally and fire. Other times, I will take in the minion and the ability just goes on CD, with me unable to fire the projectile. However, Tahm still walks around as if he is fed. Once the fed buff expires, then Tahm will fire in whatever direction he wants.

I have found even more bugs than that. His ult bugs out on the reactivate portion, sending it on the 10 sec CD instead of porting. His E sometimes just won't activate if you spam press the key (like you are anticipating incoming damage once you have some gray health stacked).
