I (brunoais) was playing as Tahm kench, I had a game partner playing Master Yi. This happened: A team fight broke in 5v2. Yi was just about dead (almost no HP). In order to help Yi, I activated my W on him and successfully swallowed (Yi's icon appeared on the right of my summoner name). Less than a second after, his picture disappears, the buffs are transfered to their jungler and I'm left alone.
What should have happened Yi should have stayed all that time in my mouth without taking any damage as specified in the instructions.
Rationalle According to the instructions: > Active: Tahm Kench swallows the target enemy minion, monster, or allied champion, making them untargetable and unable to take any actions for a short duration.
And > Untargetable refers to champions in a state where targeted spells cannot be cast on the untargetable champion, and nontargeted will have no effect (only exception being Soraka Soraka's Wish). Additionally, they cannot be targeted by auto attacks.
In other words, Yi should have never died **between **the activation of **devour and **after regurgitate.
In that game, it **happened **around the last 10 minutes of the game.
Reproduction steps: This is quite hard to reproduce because it requires actions way faster than the human can usually process. Regardless of that:
- Get, at least, 3 champions. Tahm kench and ChB on team B and ChP on team P.
- Get ChB as low as you can get without killing him.
- Make ChP prepare an attack. Probably a targeted attack or something with damage over time is better (auto-attack, for example).
- While ChP's attack is preparing, Tahm devours ChB.
- Verify that ChP was not made untargettable and died anyway inside Tahm.
Extra1: You can get similar effects such where a champion is damaged while being devoured but the damage is only reflected **after **it is regurgitated.
Extra2: This is very hard to record because one never knows when it can happen. Anyway, if anyone asks, I can try adding here something about it when it happens again.
Update:
Here's an example of it happening.
killedWhileUntargettable.mp4 If you notice: 00:13:20 -> Kindred is thrown into the air and Yasuo ults her. 00:14:00 -> Tahm Kench Devours Kindred out of Yasuo's ult. The UI clearly shows Kindred is now untargettable. 00:15:90 -> Untargettable kindred is killed inside Tahm Kench.
