So I wondered why yesterday on LeBlanc I only had like 1 win out of 9-10 games. I remember in each of those games I would at least 70% of the time have very glitchy instances in the game where I would Q an enemy then try to R, W them, I noticed after I had used Q, W, E that my ult was still up and it had etheral chains as the next ult casts.

For the odd times that my Q and R did cast consecutively without error, I noticed that W would 60% of the time fail to proc R's mark damage... I don't know what Riot did in this patch that made these actions go unregistered but it's pretty much a game breaker for me as a LB main seeing as I dipped from 64% winrate to like 45% yesterday... I tested this out in a bot game and I can yield the same results... Stay tuned for video evidence.

there are so many threads on this and riot has yet to respond to any of them...meanwhile 1000 of players are getting delayed clicks and abilities...

I thought I was just playing badly, but I have noticed a couple problems with planting my seeds and then Q/E-ing them and one of the abilities failing to go off.

This is why I haven't played a match yet in 5.2... lots of complaints about delays and stuff.. ;___; rito still hasn't said anything about it.

this is definatly not packet loss they act differently. with packet loss you should still have actions occur in the order you tell them to. this is behaving completly differently. i have under100 ping constantly and i have had sona ults go completly the other direction. if i click my ult in one direction it shouldnt then cast in the direction of my move commnd a half second after i finished casting my ult.

This has been happening to me, too. I thought I was going crazy and got worse or something

This has cost me much frustration when trying to play basically any champ, and double that--my ping is around 80 or less when I play. Between this and the hideous issues with the hit detection for skillshots, I've started playing this game when i need to be reminded how great the mechanics are in my other games.

I get this quite often, I think it can also be caused by: (1) packet loss (2) high latency.

I have had this happen to me mid game about a half dozen times. Sometimes only Q wont cast, sometimes all of them wont cast. even clicking on teh spell to cast will not innitiate it.

Workaround: open options mid game, change to quickcast, cast the spells that are failing, then change back to normal cast.

This has worked for me 100% of the time.

Happens most on champs like Xerath who you click and click again to fire. If i hold Q down but end up not casting, sometimes it gets hung up and once it occurs your stuck til you fix it,

Definitely a bug!

I, too, have noticed this. Recently with Annie's Q. In addition, Morgana's Q seems to have a bug. Most noticeably with her Ghost Bride and Victorious skins. It'll either disappear and hit or disappear entirely as if you never pressed Q to begin with.

I thought this was just me. So glad it's not. Well, I'm glad it's not just me, not glad that it's happening to others...

Noticed it REALLY obviously on Vel'Koz. It used to be that I could Q, W someone at the same time, but now I only have both go off about 40% of the time. It's insanely annoying. It actually caused my only death in my last game as Vel... Had three enemies chasing me, and was kiting them really well. Had one last W/Q that would kill them. I hit both as soon as the CD came up, and- only the W went off. The lack of a Q caused the enemy Leona to live long enough to E onto me and stun me while the rest of her team caught up. She'd have been dead and I'd have escaped had things worked as intended.

I have noticed this as well.

Every time I would try to use my Q+E combo on Jayce (firing the Q first and then quickly placing the gate directly afterwords). Except my E would never cast. Ever.

Literally 1/10 tries and then it finally actually casted like it was supposed to, and literally every other time it just simply didn't cast. I have also had the same issue with ignite, where I would be fighting someone, performing my combo, get them really low and then use ignite on them.....except it wouldn't cast.

Quite infuriating really, as it cost me a couple kills and probably that game.

It's probably not League's fault... I had a similar experience a while ago, but it turned out to be being caused by my wireless keyboard.
