[GAMEPLAY] Caitlyn - Recently Placed Traps Have No Effect

On Caitlyn, when placing traps (her W) there is always a small window of time when they will have no effect, I assume this is to simulate them arming themselves. However, I have ran into the problem that in my last few games that the traps will have almost no effect for nearly 10 seconds. For example, in my last game I was facing a tahm kench support who really enjoyed spamming hi taunt. While he was doing this I would place a trap under him or just in front of him. In the case were i put a trap under him nothing happened until he walked away and then came back. In the case were I put a trap in front of him, he would continue spamming taunt for about 5 seconds, walk onto my trap, spam his mastery emote and just walk away. The trap never activated and I ended up losing the game because of this.

This didnt only occur with Tahm but with everyone on their team.

  1. Place Trap
  2. Allow enemy to walk onto trap
  3. Watch the magic as cait trap does nothing

I tried this in 2 seperate games and I had the same problem

if you place a trap under someone who isnt moving, the trap wont activate until they move, but the 1 second window still exists too
