Yasuo Wind Wall Bugs

Just did an ARAM and I found out the hard way that the wall does not block all projectiles as it should. Specifically, it does not stop Taric Stuns nor ARAM Snow Balls. This lead to many issues throughout the match, as I at first assumed there had been a slight bug or something. As one who enjoys Yasuo, I would like to see these things fixed/stated to be working as intended. Bugs bug me.

the snowballs are intended to pass through.

its mentioned in their tooltip, that they can not be blocked by things like spellshields or yasuos windwall.

The Snowballs are intended to be unblockable. On the other hand, Yasuo's wall is known to not block certain projectiles.

Here's some details on the technicalities of Wind Wall:

  • The wall originates from within Yasuo. This is to allow him to stop point-blank attacks from the enemy. This also means that for a fraction of a second, Yasuo is immune to projectiles.

  • The wind wall does NOT block all projectiles as advertised under certain conditions.

    1. If an enemy throws out a point and click ability at close range and Yasuo attempts to stop it with Wind wall. (ie. TF's card, Akali's Q) This bug only applies if the wind wall is cast after the projectile leaves the enemy.
    2. Bouncing Projectiles (ie. Kat's Q, Brand's ult, Ryze's E) will sometimes clip through the wind wall.
  • The wind wall can stop Azir's and Orianna's Q. The soldiers/ball doesn't disappear, they just stop.
