[Gameplay] Zyra Manaflow Band and Plant Interaction Bug

AfroBuddyMan·Aug 11, 2018·2 votes·1,901 views

Zyra's plants do no trigger the Manaflow band rune. Her other basic abilities do trigger Manaflow band normally. Zyra's plants do interaction with every other rune to my knowledge. I created an enemy dummy in the practice tool and spawned plants with and without hitting the dummy directly with Zyra's other spells (Q/E/R). This has been an issue since Manaflow Band was changed to its current iteration several months ago.

Hopefully this is just a bug that got overlooked. It'll be nice if it got fixed.

Plants are coded strangely. Count as aa for the purpose of manaflow and ravenous hunter but spells for rylais and liandries.

That's strange. Any chance it'll be changed in the future or is this like a low-key stealth nerf kind of situation?

Got confirmation from Riot Support and Zyra's plants don't count as the ability hitting since you have to hit the enemy with your other spells to activate them. Pretty lame.
