I've seen this bug. I think it is more the hitbox is not matching the particle on a lot of skillshots for some reason. I only really notice it in "low" areas like the river or the middle of bot/top lane.

Very, very old bug that Riot leaves in the game for years. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuiGn6_uIxY Happens on a lot of different characters, probably a bug in their more base code rather than champion-specific coding.

Ive noticed this a couple of times where my Q didn't hit a minion it visually passed.

I hate this bug! I've had Javelin Toss and Dark Binding both miss it.

I find it tends to happen as the bug is "turning" but it's not really turning, it's just pausing to orient it's body or something and goes in the same direction. Tends to happen with "one particle" skillshots that seemingly pass through it when it's standing to turn.

I feel like I've seen a lot of my Zyra E's not hit their targets when they shouldn't too, but I was unsure that it wasn't just missing.

I've had it happen with Janna's Howling Gale fairly frequently.

This happens to Vel'koz's Q as well. It literally goes through people. THROUGH. It's happened multiple times, at first I thought I was lagging or something but in repeated games as a Vel'Koz main I know it's not me it's definitely his Q.

Yeah I posted something similar about this recently. I've seen it happy in games where blitz's and thresh's hook, along with lux's q both go through people without applying the effect. People tried to insist that its my comp or my game or whatever but the enemy team always agrees that it does as well.

Ha! I experienced the same thing with thresh's hook. It went right through the crab and I just thought the crab was un-hockable... and made of fool of myself when i actually hooked it the second time trying to show a friend lol...
