[Gameplay] Cannot stun Kennen with Fiora W

Title. This is an interesting bug but it has a huge impact on the Kennen vs. Fiora matchup. Able to be replicated 100% of the time in any game involving Fiora and Kennen.

Fiora's riposte is able to nullify every stacking effect in the game (Gnar, Vayne, Twisted Fate, Braum's passive etc.) except for Kennen's, as it prevents it from stacking altogether. It is therefore impossible to stun Kennen with W on a successfully timed parry. This needs to be looked at.

I don't see why.

Riposte prevents his passive stack from being applied, therefore his passive stun doesn't proc.

It might be since Kennen's passive applies on spells while the others apply on autoattacks.

Does Riposte stop Brand's passive (Blaze) from applying too?

I'm not sure about that one since I haven't played against Brand specifically in a lot of games, but it might be worth investigating. Otherwise Riposte allows stacking effects to ''detonate'' on her while spellshielding their effects.

Except that fiora's riposte doesn't stop her from being targeted or from being "damaged" it simply makes her invulnerable for .75 seconds. You actually can target her while she is riposting and the damage and cc is simply nullified. So I would assume that this is a bug.

It is an on spell debuff though. It might not get applied because she is invulnerable (debuff gets "nullified"), so the Kennen stun never procs and thus her stun never procs.

Still no Riot response about this? This bug occurs in 100% of the games where this matchup is in effect.
