Aram Bugs

Lumastar··32 votes·15,625 views

Seen several issues with the Howling Abyss map in the past 2 games.

  1. Warwick's dash on his Q causes him to blink around rapidly and randomly
  2. Lee Sin's Q does the exact same
  3. Zombie Brand's scorch passive permanently colored a Kha'Zix (base) green for the rest of the game
  4. A single health pack's visual model stayed after the enemy team obtained it just outside of our line of vision

Snowballs are bugged as well. Seems like any dash has a visual glitch. Was really hard playing against a Kalista today and having her ultid champ just appear out of nowhere...

It's not only visual. I made numerous tests with "auto-targetted" abilities (like Ahri W or Zoe W and even Poppy W) they aren't affected by it. And I even tried something else, like using Lissandra 's W during a LeeSin "dash" (you know when you see him facing the other way before he teleports to you ?), it rooted him on "this place" and not in front of me, "cancelling" his dash. Frustrating knowing that Poppy 's W is a counterplay to dashes and it doesn't affect them when they dash towards you. Try protecting a carry from a Talon or LeeSin when your only "counter spell" doesn't work against them

Small indie company by the way

Any dash ability from enemy players has this happen. They are invisible and untargetable until they appear at their destination. Zero counterplay currently.

know what's also fun? having fiora's passive stay on a enemy PERMANENTLY but only vissually, so you can then get another fiora passive proc on them and you gotta guess which of the 2 passive visuals is the real one

Do you have any steps to reproduce this one? Is it Howling Abyss only-bug? I can't seem to reproduce this issue :(

We are working on a fix for the dashing bug now T_T it's unfortunately very difficult to debug

I have noticed at least on my screen when enemies use summoner 39 they seem to zip off into the opposite direction of me or my teammate and suddenly appear next to their target. Its visually very confusing. I have a hard time telling when the enemy is going in.

I actually noticed this too, and I play ARAM a lot.

For some reason I will see them zip backwards and I will forget that they snowballed someone even when I know they were gonna go in on it lol

^ This.

As an ARAM OTP (8235 matches and counting), I don't have a count for how often I jumped yesterday, from enemies appearing out of NOWHERE!!

Not to mention the Thresh in one game, who did what appeared to be hyperspace moonwalking.

it only happens i believe on live public servers, you cant recreate in custom i think it may have something to do with order of animations that it goes through, it just looks like the snowball just skips the turning into a poro bit, maybe (longshot) has to do with the ghost poro update, where its an active now. Maybe the files are the same just the textures on the poros are different but they appear to be the exact same size ,since you changed one of the poro to being an active ward placing item in bushes; and since you cannot place wards on HA it just doesn't find the file to show the poro animation moving through the air or something. Idk i am probably really off and all but maybe. But that only may solve the snowball issue, the champion ability stuff no idea.

unfortunately not, it has happened to me in the past as well but only rarely and I never know what it is that causes it, I wanted to watch the replay but unfortunately it expired, I'm assuming because we got a new patch so the replay is no longer usable

I would suggest disabling snowballs and the champions who have dashes the bug occurs on atm. It is ruining the experience of ARAM now, certain champs are reducing all fun you have in ARAM games now (Lee, WW, all snowball ulting champs like Malph, Amumu etc)

thats not the solution. aram would die.

RiotRiot Stephiroth1 votes

We don't like this solution, because it's a core part of the ARAM experience :( So we're trying to find a viable fix first. We may end up disabling some content though if we cannot resolve this.

Da Giggler1 votes

I've looked through my games logs before and after patch and some variables that were there everytime before the patch are no longer there in any of the games after. Perhaps a variable was accidently removed causing it to have this problem?

Fiora bug is unrelated to the recent ARAM bugs. I don't have repro steps, but it happened to me in Co-op versus AI on Summoner's Rift many months ago already.

white5king2 votes

Yes, is ARAM only-bug, almost all the dashes and displacement are flashing instead of moving, and for me, it only happened with enemy.

It is very easy to reproduce the mark issue. Basically it is only visible if the enemy casts; you cannot see the effect from yourself or allies. If an enemy champion hits you with mark (not a minion; only a champion as far as I am aware in 6+ games of ARAM), they recast to travel and then you see all sorts of disruption. Sometimes they travel and arrive invisibly briefly. Sometimes they do some weird teleport/model display backwards despite arriving to mark location before being clearly displayed after a delay.

In terms of the dashes, I am not 100% sure. I think it needs to be targeted and/or hit an enemy champion. Like I only noticed on stuff like lee, ww, quinn, maokai. Not so much on jarvan or shen. Also I think it is currently only a Howling Abyss issue but haven't tried normal with Quinn/Maokai yet. I hope this helps.

Dont forget the OP summoner 39 bug

white5king2 votes

Same, and if you watch it more clearly, you can see that sometimes the the one who used snowball's dash are going opposite way. Then flash to where he should be and in about 0.1s to 0.5s, you can't see where he is, and all the ADCs or APs died in this times, I can't even use my exhaust. Also, champion like ViVi , her ult is a "long distance flash summoner 4 ", Quinn Quinn , her E is flash to your face and flash back.

I have had Irelia Ultimates fizzle in addition to the stuff people are talking about. ARAM just needs to be disabled until its patched. Shits not fun.

i played a game as kalista in aram, and when i ulted nothing happened but my ult went on cooldown, and then after the oathsworn died my ult activated and shot the oathsworns dead body

Every dash is more like a messed up blink with 0 counterplay or any visual queue when the dash will land. Health packs weren't healing me one game.

ARAM unplayable. Summoner's Rift in a terrible state. Time to jump ship boys.

For me, I got a bug where every time the enemy Quinn E'd, she'd teleport around, though the ability functioned the same in the end.

FilDaFunk1 votes

Same with snowballs. Also, if camera isn't near the outer blue health pack, the ring isn't visible (visible when camera moves to it).

AdeJBug1 votes

that was since the bilgewater. reported and still not fixed

Mighty Mortein1 votes

Thresh hook as well. Well at least when he travels to you. It's so hard to tell how close he is until he's right in front of you.

Dllesh1 votes

teemo's shrooms are bugged too, shows he has a shroom when he does not, then when the timer gives him a "2nd" one u place it and they both go away

gotlolz1 votes

Only happens on Howling Abyss. Was playing around on ARAM with a friend last night. It was funny for about ten minutes, then it was annoying.

As OP outlined, any form of dash, including the "Mark" summoner spell snowball, makes the casting champion appear to "warp." They don't always disappear, although sometimes they do just straight up poof from your screen. Most of the time they appear to move in a random direction, usually away from you.

Razieleron1 votes

yeah, it's unplayable.

Haados1 votes

I've seen these bugs in ARAM too and it's very tilting and somewhat gamebreaking if you ask me. Hopefully it'll get resolved soon.
