Xin Zhao R Bug

Xin's Ulti specifically states that it stuns enemies while applying a knock back. In the tool tip it says for a target who has been challenged, the knock back is not applied. Meaning if you previously hit the target with E or auto attacked said target, it would not apply the knock back. However if this is the case, as that is literally exactly what it says, then the stun should still apply regardless of whether or not the knock back applies. If this is a tool tip error then it should be amended to state that if a challenged target is hit by the ulti then both the stun and knock back are not applied. However if this is a character bug then it should immediately be patched to apply the stun no matter what. Just to be clear, it states that it both applies a stun and knock back meaning, they have purposely separated the two. Of course inherently knock backs and knock ups are a form of stun but, in this case they are very clearly applied separately. Other wise you would never see the stun active for a short duration after the knock back. It would simply end as his Q does where they can just keep walking after the initial attack. To be honest, this may be something that makes Xin somewhat viable again and would be good for his overall health and game play in the Jungle or in Top. Looking forward to hearing from you on this matter Rito.

stuns are part of knock backs, just like how stuns are part of knock ups.

Since the challenge target is not knocked back, they aren't stunned.

Riot isn't like yugioh or magic. There wording can make things confusing and not literal, just what they intend. I think what's happening is the ability applies one cc all at once. The stun would be it own separate cc happening simultaneously, I don't think they intended for him to have the second cc on this ability
