I've had a game recently where Nasus's Q would half way go extremely slow and sometimes not even hit has this happened to anyone too?

It's when you Q a target and click a different target during the animation - it will be fixed in 5.18, but you can use the workaround of just not switching targets in the .5s window of casting Q and it landing :)

Waiting for this. This bug happened to me for over 1 second once, making me miss 3 minions total. (the one that died during animation included)

Why is it not in the patchnotes of 5.18?

Yes it has, the last 3 games only really started recently for me. I believe it has something to do when moving and Q, the AA reset goes like bonkers. I dont know a fix and i would like it to be fixed soon.

I first noticed this horrific bug this patch.

I believe this bug has been dubbed the "lag cane" by Sirhcez and his viewers.

Yes, i just played a game against a nasus, he went afk because he thought he was lagging

Happened to me a lot. It seems like it occurs most often when switching targets in the middle of the Q attack animation.

This is happening to me a lot. From what i experienced it happens either when u stop/switch auto attack or when u cast spells. This can be a big issue because i tend to activate q 1st, then hit spirit fire for max damage or wither when i am chasing, not to mention how this affects farming. At first i thought this i lag issue (80 ms if i am lucky), but this started happening since new patch and i saw SirhcEz get the same problem on multiple occasion meaning it's not lag related problem. Before the patch when q animation started u could NOT stop it (that caused farming problems also), but now u obviously can and that leaves player, not champion, unaware of what is happening.

TLDR; switching/stopping AA or casting spells stops Nasus q from executing.
