So Gragas has been used a lot in World's and just all of a sudden he has a bug where he can't use Q unless he dies? What the hell happened? How does that happen? How do we get this far in World's till this was noticed? Is Riot getting lazy?

They said it was a known bug too lmfao

I saw that bug on a stream before... Riot obviously knows about it, but doesn't have a fix yet. Maybe this game will help them fix it since they will have all the information about what was going on when it occurred.

Please take this as an acknowledgement of the bug from Riot.

I've been trying to track this down for MONTHS. And, yes, I've read all the reports of this. The problem is, when a bug is reported with no actionable leads or reproduction steps, it's difficult to fix the issue. Not having an understanding of what causes this to happen, we can't safely fix the bug and we could end up breaking the ability more. League of a Legends is a widely played game, and we see 'one in a million' edge cases (like this bug) all the time, and it drives me crazy. If the community can come up with reliable reproduction steps to a major bug like this, I Garen-tee that the bug would be fixed within a patch or two. In terms of work around, I am currently working on an Azir refractor, so things are super busy. However, I have plans to look into this bug and find a way to hopefully avoid the issue the spell currently. (No eta) tl;dr: Here is your acknowledgement. This is a one-in-a-million bug; We don't have a reliable reproduction step, nor the understanding of the different variables involved, so we can't reliably know we fixed the issue when we attempt a fix.

Just reward a championship riven skin for the first person/team that can reproduce the bug. You will get 10000 people spending 5 avg each to try to find the bug. The annoyance of debugging a software is often you have no idea what is causing the problem but the community can help if there is enough incentive.

I just don't know anymore.... Personally restart the match and ban Gragas from all play till fixed.

Grag has had a rare bug with his Q for months. The bug reports started showing up five months ago, but they were never addressed.

EDIT: Here we go.

I wish NA could get remakes whenever a game isnt going their way.

That bug was like a month old. Guess that what they get for not fixing it earlier.

I don't think it is just Gragas in this last week I've seen some people post same issues with other champions.

One can't simply break Morde and GP 100% win ratio

That bug is literally what made Kindred be delayed. Lamb couldn't use w (Wolf,) unless she died sometimes cause he would disappear. lmao.

I Don't log on to these forums, but I know its really the best place for feedback for Rioters. This tournament or at least this series of the tournament is pretty illlegitimized. I just turned off my stream. Garbage outcome.

That bug existed for a while, there are videos on YouTube.

You just realized their lazy? They are useless at doing their work that I question who they are even hiring. No response to players wanting question about morde. PBE has bug shown and when notifying riot they don't give a sht until NEXT PATCH so they can work on it later. Lazy HALLOWEEN SKINS (panth/jinx). O and my favourite is no more map changes for the seasons ( Halloween/Chris mas map skins).

Back in URF I had a bug on Kat where I couldn't cast ult until I died, but it seems to be very rare.

I'm just watching to see how they handle the situation

I don't think Riot is getting lazy, I do believe it happens out of complacency or oversight though. I think this issue has been happening with other champions aside from Gragas lately though and if nothing else this will hopefully prompt Riot to start focusing on bugs a little more; although I think expecting that might be a little too optimistic.

Agreed. Restarting the game and banning Gragas for the rest of worlds and/or until fixed seems like a great idea. I mean no disrespect to the analyst desk ( who do well under normal situations ) but it almost seems like they are recycling a lot of the things they previously stated ( and are struggling to do so ) in order to hold our attention to Worlds.

IKR? xD I got a stupid little grin on my face after hearing that.
