[GAMEPLAY] Garen ult can be dodged using ult

Garen ult is a point and click ult but flashes can somehow dodge it. I have at least 3 times of experience of enemy flashing 0.5 sec later after i ulted them then they dont take damage even though garen did his ult animation and ult sound and the ult doesn't go on cooldown as if i never press it before. I never have this problem with other point and click ult such as darius ult. I get this bug once every 10 Garen games probably because not every enemy press flash almost at the same time as garen ult.

How to get this bug:

  1. Use garen ult on the enemy.
  2. Enemy use flash less than 1 sec after garen ulted them (probably around 0.5 sec)
  3. Garen will do his ult animation and ult sound but his ult won't go on cooldown as if he never press it and enemy takes no damage.

No his ult has always done damage on people who flashed mid animation. Youre probbaly lagging and have high ping, or riot patched it

I'm pretty sure this is not a bug. If the enemy flashes at near the exact same time you cast your ultimate on them, they can dodge the ult if they break line of sight or they flash far enough away. It is a very small time window, but it is intended.

This is the same with other similar abilities, like Chogath's ult or Darius' ult.

There is an maximum range to Garen's ult, where you can get out of range before the damage is dealt. It involves more than just one flash of distance, but a fast enough champion or a champion with a dash and flash can escape it.
