Can the Lulu Polymorph problem be adressed?

I'm tired that when I polymorph Renekton, he can still stun me, and that Garen can still silence me. It's a POLYMORPH. I make them become goddam SQUIRRELS AND CUPCAKE. I can understand spells such as Garen W or Wukong Ult - they were casted before the polymorph, and they're just AOE stuff around them, so they don't need to auto attack or whatsoever for it to work. But the fact a Squill can still use auto attacks just because it's empowered with some crap is stupid.

This problem has been going on for long enough, and it covers most champs with empowered auto attacks - that's what it is, an empowered auto attack, and guess what Lulu's W does? It disarm enemy champions.

Major Edit

I've figured out that in the case of Garen, it is effectively because of the middair animation. But there's a single problem that progress with that- why isn't Jax's W doing the same?

In this video I tested, and you don't even need to slow down to see Jax was in midanimation but it didn't even hit, unlike Garen.

No matter how op lulu is what is the source and whether Garen is able to use an auto Q or not when he is polymorphed, that is not the main concern anymore- the problem is why can't Jax do the same? If Jax could do the same then I would shut the hell up, but there's clearly a contradiction here.

Then again, why would Garen be allowed to Q while his animation hasn't even visibly started? -> https://puu.sh/y2jes/313741561a.webm

maybe polymorph can be changed so its not a 2 sec silence+slow+blind

targeted abilities don't stop, if the animation goes off as your polymorph goes off then it doesn't matter. its intended to work like that for every targeted ability

Please.... I am so tired of being flipped by a volibear turned into a cupcake. It looks so terrible and has no counterplay for lulu.

Consider the fact that polymorph is already an overloaded skill that shouldnt exist. Stop QQing about lulu shes freelo. Turns champs that really shouldnt have tank stats into tanks.

No. Targeted abilities, when started, always go through. I'd rather Riot fix it so it doesn't work on "unstoppable." Sad seeing a squirrel scream "COWAAAAARDS!!!"

They are already mid-animation, so it will still go through. It's the same with flash and autos
