[Gameplay] Kennan's Lightening Rush(E)

Kennan has either a bug in the description of the tooltip or a 100% repeatable on attempt bug.

Anytime you use Kennan's E the movement speed he is currently gaining is not what the Tool tip implies.

I hadn't played him for awhile, went to use him and felt he was moving slowly, upon reading the tool tip i noticed a discrepancy in what it says it gives and what it actually gives.

Tool tip on Lightning Rush says he gains 335 MS for 2 seconds, as well as a 4 second Armor and MR buff, right? So I'm at the default 335 and hit E and my MS only went up to 565 (Thats only a increase of 230 a increase of 69% of his base movement speed)

I've noticed this too, but I've come to believe it's just a "diminishing returns" mechanic for movement speed. I originally noticed it with Mordekaiser's Metal Shards thingy, instead of giving me 60 ms when heading towards my partner it only gave me ~52 ms. So, it's unfortunate, but its probably intended.

This isn't a bug, it's the diminishing returns system on movement speed. I'm just going to copy the info from the wiki

Movement speed caps When the raw movement speed is greater than 415, there are two soft caps applied:

The raw speed between 415 and 490 gets multiplied by 80%. The raw speed over 490 gets multiplied by 50%.
