[GAMEPLAY] Pantheon's Aegis Assault blocks AOE abilities behind him

Pantheon 's "E" reads: "Pantheon braces his shield and engages enemies in a chosen direction for 1.5 seconds, becoming immune to damage from that direction and dealing X physical damage over the duration."

I see it says immune to damage from THAT direction. This seems to work even with aoe abilities. An issue I ran into was while playing Lux Throwing a Lux "E" BEHIND him while he is in his duration still manages to negate all damage from it. I was in front of him and his Aegis Shield was facing me. Figured a well placed "E" behind him should still damage him but it did nothing.

  1. Have Pantheon cast Aegis Assault while facing Lux
  2. Throw a Lux E behind Pantheon
  3. Detonate the E doing no damage

Here is the video of my instance of it happening.

The source of the damage is from that direction. The missile that detonates the AoE is from that direction.
