[GAMEPLAY] Leona's Zenith Blade While Knocked Up

CompGame·11/16/2015, 2:32:41 AM·2 votes·535 views

I have just come out of a game (where I played Vel'Koz) and I encountered a bug. I lay down my E (Tectonic Disruption, a knock up) and (I assume) Leona uses her E (Zenith Blade) before being knocked up. My E then activates and knocks her up. After Leona lands, Zenith Blade was invisible so she just zoomed to my face (ending in my death). I believe the issue is that Leona's Zenith Blade cannot be canceled after it's animation starts---even by knock ups. Sorry Leona. Leona item 3070

That is called skill buffering. Lets say Veigar presses his R on a target out of range. He has to walk into the range his ult can be cast. If you R then summoner 4 it almost happens almost instantly not giving your opponent time to react. In your case the same concept applies really.

It's not "skill buffering" (which is a thing), and it's not even remotely related.

It's an ability with a cast time, and it (is one of the few that) can't be interrupted or cancelled besides by death, like lux r. (note the blade does damage and the root, not leona, it's still a skillshot, it just moves her afterwards)

She started casting, you then cc'd her, but it was already cast and in the air and will move her no matter what (even if you were to tristana r her before she moved)

Working as intended, though I'm not sure about the blade being invisible? Maybe you just missed it..
