Riven disable/hotfix when?

Zero Skill Tank·Jan 8, 2017·25 votes·1,180 views

It is silly for how long champion can get away with bug abuse, simply because they have large playerbase, and Rito is afraid to disable them for as long as needed.

Are you talking about the cc cancel lol? barely anyone can pull it off in game and I doubt that really anyone can. In a teamfight when you cant really see/control whats going to hit you theres no way you are going to be able to cc cancel it its just not practical for actual use.

Could be useful in lane against Poppy.

You're comparing the value of abusing a glitch to an item that takes up a inventory slot and costs 1,300 gold. No shit QSS is better, the bug still warrants a disable.

I wouldnt mind it being hotfixed. But I really dont want her disabled. I really dont play anyone else.

I mean, there was a bug where WW would heal off of GP barrels, and GP or WW got disabled for that.

I keep thinking of the yas bug where he fit in an extra aa and the boards raged for him to be disabled and he wasnt. I dont really care either way it just changes which games I am playing.

I thought it was because Draven could infinitely stack his Adoration off of Gangplank's Barrels.

I played against an Ezreal who consistently cancelled the pull on my Blitz Q all game. Was super annoying :/ Wont take Blitz into him anymore.

Ezreal's is different since it's a blink, not a dash. He actually stops existing on the map for that split second

It registers as hitting him before the blink but because he sent the command the animation has started and doesn't get cancelled. The same happens with Tristana if she times her Rocket Jump correctly.

I don't play top lane, could you explain how Riven is any different then?

I'm saying that Riven ISN'T any different and this is something that should be fixed ASAP.

Supreme Senpai69Jan 9, 20171 votes

If it isn't any different why should it be fixed? I might not be understanding, I'm pretty tired not gonna lie. But how's it a bug if every other champion can do it?

There are only 3 champions known to be able to reproduce this currently. Riven, Ezreal, and Tristana. I think Shaco and Akali might be able to since they have blinks but I haven't seen this reported.

The reason it should be fixed is because these abilities are not intended to break CC. If you are grabbed by blitzcrank.. it's intended that you be pulled. No where has it ever been said that this abilities are intended to cancel displacement CC.

Supreme Senpai69Jan 9, 20172 votes

Oh okay. Was wondering why everyone was only complaining about Riven, but it makes sense hers would be worse since she has more dashes and on lower CDs. Thanks for takin the time to explain

You guys are relatively new, I can tell, or at least newer than I am.

Cast times. The answer is cast times.

Say the Blitzcrank throws his hook at Ezreal Ezreal sees this and starts his E Ezreal is grabbed by hook E is still casting, however, and the cast time ends during the pull blinking him at the instant the cast time finishes which stops him from being pulled any further.

It's not even a bug at this point, it's effectively an intended feature or they would've removed it in Season 1 when people learned about it (yes, I was there back then). It has nothing to do with the fact that it's a blink. A really old League joke was to ask about what change you could make to a champion that sounds like a buff but is actually a nerf: the answer is to remove Ezreal's cast time on his E.

A similar effect can be accomplished on Lux:

Blitz throw his hook at Lux Lux starts firing her ult straight in front of her in the middle of the lane Blitz pulls Lux to him Lux's cast time finishes in front of where she currently is, which means that Blitzcrank now gets lasered in the face for his troubles.

shaco can do it yeah, if he Q's right.

ImTheSideKickJan 9, 20171 votes

Khazix did some one say bug?

NuparuJan 9, 20171 votes

They won't disable her because it's not a Riven bug, it's an issue with movement commands interfacing with crowd control.

Kosm1KJan 9, 20171 votes

movement abilities but yea, it's always been there, it's just that they only now discovered it on riven I bet. If they somehow caused it, i'm just wondering how the coding that did that happened.
