Nasus Q Slow

Loomybinn·Sep 2, 2015·7 votes·948 views

I was playing a as Nasus game on September 2 against a Shen top and occasionally when I would Q, it would reset and then come down really slowly. He wasn't taunting me at any of these times. It acted like I was GREATLY reduced attack speed but Shen doesn't have anyway of reducing attack speed.

Update: Played a few more games on Nasus and had the same problem against other champs as well. It's also good to see that other players are having the same issues. Now I know I'm not buggy myself or crazy. Seems to occur when the minion you are going for dies or you change targets mid Q.

I was able to reproduce this bug this way:

Press Q
When the animation towards one minion starts, Quickly swap to a new minion.

This'll make his animation very slow. I decided to keep switching between targets for a bit. Quite funny but it does become a pain.

This is occuring for me just on minions too. I've had the issue when activating Q and then switching minion targets quickly. He makes the animation to Q by raising his staff but it's insanely slow. Like Zilean max E slow. I can't make the bug appear 100% but I have noticed it a lot after the patch.

Just happened to me, too. Walking away and clicking another target fixed it.

Yeah had the same problem my last match, when I tried to hit a Q, sometimes it was like in slow motion or Nasus didn't even hit it D: (Like an aa cancel)

Just played a game with Nasus and had this happen to me as well.

At least on minions, I believe you can get this bug fairly reliably when the Q target minion dies before the Q connects. Also, Q does not go on CD when this happens and still applies to the next AA, which makes me think there's something wrong when switching targets.

Edit: Also I'd like to point out that the title is misleading. Q isn't applying a slow. It's the Q-empowered AA animation that's slow even when the Q didn't trigger.

Same my q would not go off for at least 4 seconds after using it. Also every so often nasus freezes and q is then cancelled for some reason. Farming has become an issue with him.
