[REPLAY] Pyke's Ultimate Disables Audio When Recording Highlights

When Pyke ults, a sudden stinger sound clip plays during the animation. During normal gameplay and during a match history playback, the audio functions normally. However when recording a clip of Pyke casting his ult the audio cuts out in the recorded clip.

  1. Replay a match with Pyke in it.
  2. Press record.
  3. Capture Pyke ulting in the recording.
  4. Exit game.
  5. Watch the recorded highlight.

I tested this with five replays. On my first two replays of different games, I skipped to just before Pyke ulted in the game. The moment the stinger sound was supposed to play, all audio went silent. On my third replay, it watched Pyke ult without recording, rewound the playback, and recorded the scene again. When this happened, all audio was silent. I tested this again, recording the first ult without previewing it, and the recording's audio cut out at the time the ult played. I tested watching the ult, then rewinding and recording again, and had a completely silent audio track.

What Pyke does with the ult does not seem to affect the sound cutting out, I tested with replays of kills, assists and misses.

Yeah I found this bug out recently as well while playing with the highlights feature in a replay where the audio cuts after pyke's ult in the highlight but not in the actual replay. Also the highlights have terrible quality no matter the settings so definitely recommend using a different program to record plays if you're reading this.
