Soraka star call damage applied before the animation lands

Was laning against a Soraka support and her Q - Starcall was applying damage and on hit effects about .25 to .5 seconds before the animation landed. This was only in the outer rim of the Q, but not the center. I do not have a recording on it unfortunately. I believe this may have to do with some leftover coding in her Q due to the recent change. I did not notice it until I was attempting to sidestep the Q and was out of the Circle but still took damage several time and Raka got her Rejuvenation Buff, and then I noticed that the animation of the buff travel started and arrived sooner from my Jinx than on my support Nautilus, and he was in the center. retested with some friends and could notice the buff timer start and then restart about .25 to .5 seconds later. Also, I was at the far end of the edge when testing, Soraka in front shooting, and Nautilus in the middle, and Jinx at far edge, but the buff animation from Jinx arrived first and she took damage before Naut did. If anyone else can trigger buff on vid that would be great.
