Unless Riot claims otherwise, they would treat Lee Sin with more respect if he had bugged wardhopping.

INB4 shut up lee sin QQ but it's a vocal and easy to imagine example.

Yeah they probably would do that. It's not a wrong statement to say that Riot definitely favors Lee Sin more than other champions, but it's a bit of a stretch to scream about how insanely broken and unbeatable he is and he's the most overpowered champion in the game.

THE BUG IS VISUAL ONLY.

I believe it has been confirmed several times that the effect still applies a non-tenacity-reducible stun (which is basically all a knock-up is) and still triggers knock-up based abilities like Yasuo's Ultimate. While the visual effect of the knock-up itself does sometimes fail to play, the bug hasn't actually changed Xin Zhao's gameplay in any way.

Indeed it is a non-Tenacity reduced stun, the bug has no gameplay effect. The visual effect just sometimes doesn't play on a non-moving target.

The bug is actually a 90%-95% disable of his knockup.

The ability does not apply the .8 second knockup normally given to Xin Zhao.

Play him in the jungle and watch as you have to recall before finishing your clear, instead of finishing with full health.

For those of us who are actually Xin Zhao mains, this is completely gamebreaking, and we can't play our own champion.

False. This has been investigated by Riot and commented upon, the animation doesn't play but the effect happens. It is still a 1sec (thereabouts) non-tenacity affected stun.

That completely explains why Xin still takes damage from his target during that time, doesn't it?

Xin's knockup causes an interruption of damage.

It used to cancel Nunu ult. Now it doesn't.

It used to cancel Fiddle Ult. Now it doesn't.
